In a world of increasing water scarcity, wastewater management has become crucial to limiting the adverse effects of climate change and population growth. Purifying wastewater allows us to conserve [...]
Why Mudsucker Diaphragm Pumps Are Ideal for Wastewater Treatment
New Condensate Pumps for NYC WWTP
This was just the case for Coney Island’s condensate vacuum pump operations located less than one hundred feet from an inland waterway that flows into the Atlantic Ocean. Salt water destroyed the existing Mud Hog diaphragm pumps, valve systems and electrical panels causing tens of thousands of dollars worth of damage.
Wastecorp Mud Sucker Pumps Now Available With Variable Frequency Drives
Do you need to adjust the speed of your pump’s electric motor, modulating the power being delivered? We’ve got good news; all Mud Sucker diaphragm pump models are now available with a variable frequency drive (VFD). VFD’s help to accommodate fluctuating demand by adjusting pump energy consumption and costs by adjusting the amount of power delivered to the motor for pumping specific tasks.
Pumps: How to Maintain a Continuous Flow and Minimize Pulsation
With pumping applications, one of the challenges you face especially when pumping thinner liquids, is to maintain continuous flow without “jerking the hose” or disruptions in pump productivity. One of the consulting engineering firms we have worked with in California illustrates this point well:
Primary Sludge Pumps at a WWTP
Primary sludge pumps are typically used in municipal Wastewater treatment facilities to transfer digested sewage and sludge.
How to Pump Cooking Oil from Restaurants
In this post we provide answers to the question of how to pump out used cooking oil from restaurant waste collection bins especially in colder weather? Used cooking oil transforms into a gel when the surrounding temperature dips below 40°F (4°C). This makes the fluid very difficult to pump. Roger F., from Charlotte, NC conveys the difficulty in pumping cooking oil:
"We are trying to find optimum pumping solution for pumping used cooking oil (uco) from 100- 300 gallon grease bins
Diaphragm Pumps Now Available With Control Panels
One of the trending customer requests this past year is custom diaphragm pump stations equipped with control panels and mobility options. To give you an example (and some ideas for your own pump application), one of our customers who happens to be one of the largest snack food producers globally, contacted Wastecorp's engineering department asking for design proposals for a 3" diaphragm pump out system complete with a mobility kit and the ability to directly control the pump operation.
Compact Marine Pump Out System Makes Debut
If your marina is looking for a compact dock side pump out station this season check out the ultra compact Mud Sucker Marine pump out system. The best part about this system is that it was completely engineered with marina operator input. We asked marinas what new pump out products would most benefit their boaters and the facility.
Dredging Pump Projects Made Easier
With dredging applications, Wastecorp generally encounters at least a few different kinds of projects: city or town sanctioned projects that are part of waterway management programs and private projects that include beautification, enhanced recreational access and improved appearance. For public projects, we generally work with engineering
Waste Containment Pump Systems | Your Options
Personal waste containment systems or “honey wagons” as they are sometimes called in the pump industry have come along way in just the last few years. In response to the soaring costs of vac truck services, everyone from those needing septic pumping, waste oil pumping and used vegetable oil transfer have found an economical alternative in owning a personal waste containment systems.
