Although the focus of slurry pumps is often on the size and percentage of solids to be pumped, in many applications corrosion resistance is also an important factor in material selection. In such cases, the material chosen must provide adequate resistance to erosion and corrosion.

>Slurry pumps are typically larger than standard pumps, with more horsepower and stronger bearings and shafts. The most common type of slurry pump is the centrifugal pump. These pumps use a rotating impeller to move the slurry, similar to the way aqueous liquids move through a standard centrifugal pump.

Pumping slurry can be a challenging problem, but with the right instruction, pumping and maintenance plan, you will achieve operational success.

The most important thing here is to determine the pump power required to deliver a specific fluid flow at the desired or required differential pressure. Consider the following.
