Industrial applications need industrial solutions. LobePro specializes in developing long-lasting and hardworking solutions for industrial settings through our pumps. Rotary lobe pumps have many advantages, and at LobePro we specialize solely in rotary pumps in order to find new and innovative ways to solve our clients’ challenges. Check out the three common uses for our rotary lobe pumps in heavy industrial settings.
Wastewater Separation and Treatment
Wastewater treatment is a necessity in many different industrial settings. All sorts of industrial facilities have wastewater that needs to be transported, processed, and treated before it can be released back into the environment. More and more engineers have chosen to switch to PD pumps for their operations that have to handle oily water separation and similar wastewater processing, over other types of pumps. Rotary pumps, especially those designed by LobePro, can more efficiently and effectively accommodate small solids separation and oil water sump transfers. Our rotary lobe pumps exhibit low shear, improving solids separation down the line and helping to prevent emulsification. They are also self-priming and compact in design, which helps to ensure a longer lifespan and ease of maintenance.
High Viscosity Fluid Pumping
Pumping fluids and similar materials that are highly viscous is another use for LobePro’s pumps. Rotary pumps can handle high viscosity fluids while still exhibiting a consistent and measurable flow. These types of materials can be found in a variety of industrial settings. Adhesive and epoxy production, food and beverage waste processing (including the waste produced by facilities producing beer, wine, sugar, and chips), and especially the growing biofuel production market. All of these applications share the same need for high viscosity handling with low shear and no backwash. Our rotary pumps offer improved performance efficiency, even when it comes to high viscosity fluids.
Applications that Require Constant, Measurable Flow
Some industrial applications need pumps that can handle a near-constant flow despite varying system pressures, and positive displacement pumps offer that capability, especially rotary lobe pumps. Rotary pumps can maintain a constant flow rate even under varying pressure, and LobePro’s pumps offer a compact and accessible design perfect for applications that require accurate metering and steady flow. Wastewater transfer is one common application, as PD pumps are far less susceptible to ragging or delaminating. Biofuel production and processing also requires a constant, measurable flow rate, which our pumps can offer.
