Compared to standard centrifugal pumps, centrifugal pumps optimized for slurry pumping typically have the following features.

What style of pump is suitable?

Positive displacement slurry pumps with limited capacity to deliver high head are used to pump slurry through pipes with very high solids concentrations.

The size of slurry pump impeller must be considered to ensure it holds up against abrasive wear. Slurry pump impellers are generally larger in size when compared to slurry pumps for less abrasive liquids. The more “meat” the impeller has, the better it will hold up to the task of pumping harsh slurry mixtures. Just think of slurry pump impeller as a football team’s offensive line. These players are usually large and slow. Throughout the whole game they are beaten up, over and over again, but expected to withstand the abuse. You wouldn’t want small players in this position, just like you wouldn’t want a small impeller on your slurry pumps.

As this limestone slurry needs to be moved efficiently through a complex industrial process, the selection of the right pumps and valves (taking into account their whole life cycle costs and maintenance) is crucial.
