Egger was consulted by several engineering companies for pumps as turbine (PaT) designed for high flows and low heads, which corresponds to the field of Kaplan turbines. Following a CFD simulation study using scFlow software developed by Cradle/Hexagon, they were able to respond effectively with the RPG/ RPP program for elbow propeller pumps.

As swimmers prepared to practice and compete in two massive pools built temporarily in the middle of Lucas Oil Stadium, water experts rose to a different type of challenge. Deliver 2 million gallons of water through a massive piping and filtration system and ensure water clarity for swimmers and viewers alike. This is no easy feat.

An impressive high head pump installation for dewatering the largest coal mine in North Macedonia. Their partner in Serbia recently completed a pumping project with two high head pumps.

Newly formed teams quickly discover that there are plenty of synergies to be explored. This also holds true for the partnership between South American beverage multi Postobón and KHS – which in a very short time indeed has yielded not one but three filling lines featuring various block systems.

A large steel manufacturing company has experienced longer pump life and lower maintenance since installing Qdos chemical metering and dosing pumps in a defoamer application at an industrial plant in Ontario, Canada. The company has benefited from a higher return on investment (ROI) since two Qdos peristaltic pumps replaced diaphragm pumps from another pump manufacturer.

Svanehøj adds a significant reference to its expanding portfolio within ammonia applications. The Danish liquified gas equipment specialist has been awarded a contract to supply 32 deepwell fuel pumps for a new series of ammonia dual-fuel bulk carriers.

A quarter of a century has passed since the PCK Refinery in Schwedt/Oder, Germany (PCK Raffinerie GmbH) renovated its sewer systems, the so-called main sluice. In 1997, two approaches were pursued and compared with each other.

Water providers in Southeast Asia face challenges related to geography, economic development, climate change impacts and population growth. The region is home to more than 680 million people, with much of the population located in cities, leading to urban spread that can obstruct the natural course of waterways and increase the risk of flooding.

Around 359 billion cubic meters of wastewater is produced globally each year. As well as municipal wastewater, a broad range of industrial processes produce wastewater, such as chemical manufacturing, food processing and powerplants.

When building a new facility to develop semiconductors in Brisbane, Australia, Silanna Semiconductor needed a reliable supply of ultrapure water (UPW). Using a multi-stage solution from Xylem, the semiconductor manufacturer can now convert 70% of readily available municipal water into Type E-1 ultrapure water. The solution minimizes maintenance and downtime, reduces chemical use, and increases water efficiency.
