Polymer mortar pipe
Hobas centrifugally-cast, fiberglass reinforced, polymer mortar pipe performs reliably through a wide range of pH factors, chemicals and temperatures. It is typically used for cooling, circulating or wastewater lines, but is also approved for potable water. The pipe is widely used in both new construction and rehab for corrosive environments such as industrial effluents, contaminated drainage or foul air because of its inherent corrosion resistance. The improved flow rates (Manning's .009, Hazen Williams 155) that can be achieved with the pipe provide substantial pumping cost savings. The pipe is manufactured in sizes from 18" through 110".

Aeration, mixing
A new concept in mixing and simultaneous aeration of all types of liquids has been introduced by ITT Flygt. Designated as Flo-Get, the systems incorporate a Flygt submersible pump, an air suction tube, and an ejector/diffuser nozzle. The systems are versatile since one or more Flygt submersible pumps can be used with one or more ejectors. Pumps of different power and hydraulic performance can be connected to ejectors of different flow capacities to meet most system requirements. The system is suitable for any type of tank regardless of its size, shape or depth. Using different ejectors, it can perform different tasks, including oxygenation, CO2 neutralization, sludge recycling, ozone treatment, mixing, foam suppression, and homogenization (mixing). Installation requires no major modifications to existing structures.

Centrifugal pumps
Magnatex Pumps offers Magnatex® MMP Series Pumps, designed specifically for low-flow, low-head applications. These magnetically driven, sealless centrifugal pumps provide efficient, leak-free pumping of flows from 1/2 to 20 gpm, heads to 90 feet and pressures to 85 psig. The pumps use the company's exclusive "straddle bearing" design which reduces shaft load and bearing wear. They are furnished with shaft, thrust ring, sleeves and bushings made of Beta sintered Silicon Carbide material. Slip-fit construction allows for easy maintenance and the sealless, mag-drive design eliminates the need for mechanical seals.
