Abrasive challenge for Börger’s pumps at Chemwaste

Börger have been helping reduce downtime at a leading UK waste management company, despite taking on one of the most notoriously difficult pump applications. Chemwaste utilise three Maintenance-In-Place Börger pumps to handle highly abrasive waste latex with a high solids content that is just part of the company’s six-stream manifold system.

Chemwaste’s Site Manager Dave Walton, said: “We’ve worked closely with Börger to develop pumps that would be best able to withstand our very demanding process. Börger’s pressurised pre-chamber system pump has dramatically reduced downtime because our previous pumps became blocked up almost constantly and had to be taken out of service for complete stripping down”.

David Brown, Börger UK’s Managing Director, added: “We knew this application was going to be an extremely tough challenge but by Chemwaste giving us the opportunity to work with them and understand their process, we’re very pleased to have provided pumps that make life easier”.
