Chemical Industry

The chemical industry runs on pumps that must handle an extraordinary range of media — strong acids and caustics, organic solvents, oxidising agents, slurries with suspended catalyst, and viscous intermediates — often at elevated temperatures and pressures. The wrong material choice can mean catastrophic seal failure within hours; the right one means years of trouble-free operation. Weltech's chemical process pump range is built around material flexibility. From SS-316 and Alloy 20 for general process duty through to polypropylene and PVDF-lined builds for the most aggressive media, our pumps cover the full corrosion spectrum. Mechanical seal options and zero-leak configurations protect both personnel and product integrity across reactor feed, transfer, and effluent duties. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS • Reactor feed & product transfer — controlled flow of acids, alkalis, and reactants • Chemical recovery & solvent handling — distillation feed, condensate pumping • Scrubbing & effluent neutralisation — acidic and alkaline waste stream treatment • Sump and pit drainage — recovery of spills and process leakage in containment areas
