assistance needed

[b8k]

I am in the process of installing new sulfuric acid piping and storage system in a alumina production plant,and I would appreciate any guidance on material selection and the best pump to overcome a head of 50 feet, the ambient temp is about 40C.

B8K!

In our sulphuric acid plant we used to have centrifugal pumps made up of CF8M and with carbon steel piping.

Regards,

Truth: Even the hardest of the problems will have atleast one simple solution. Mine may not be one.

Check some of the mfr's - GIW Industries has a white iron T90 that works in high corrosion applications

Depends on the concentration of H2So4 and the temperature

PVDF Diaphragm Pump with PTFE Elastomers would probably be fine

 

Don't ever let a vendor do an engineers job and size the pump for you...LOL what a world....
