ATEX Approved Waste Water Pumps

DriveSure integrates motor, mounting and in-house closed-loop control technology to reduce development times and risks for OEMs in sourcing their own motor/mounting solutions.

Government initiatives to reduce emissions are gathering momentum, especially with many countries aiming for net carbon zero by 2030 or 2050. The building and construction sector is a particular focus, as it accounts for a significant amount of global energy- and process-related CO2 emissions, approximately 37% in 2021(i).

Irrigating large areas of agriculture involves the use of vast quantities of water, often at times when temperatures rise and water can be in short supply. To be wholly effective, irrigation needs a controlled and measured programme that ensures equal distribution and conservation.

KSB SE & Co. KGaA presents a new type series of fully integrated in-line water pumps. When developing the intelligent and highly efficient EtaLine Pro type series, the developers focussed not only on extremely low energy consumption, but also on the economical use of materials.

At a nickel-cobalt mine in Papua New Guinea, until the end of 2017 cost-optimized diaphragm pumps from a regional manufacturer were used to pump 98 percent sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid is required for the extraction of nickel from laterite. However, as the units previously used had a high failure rate and long downtimes, those responsible decided to replace them with new models.

More than 800 high school and university students from around the globe accepted the challenge from Xylem to take on water and climate issues through the second annual Xylem Ignite Global Student Innovation Challenge competition.
