Pumps for the Feed and Food Additives Industry
Feed and food additive production involves various liquid handling processes, including acidic and alkaline solution transfer, additive slurry circulation, and liquid raw material processing.
Although many materials used in these industries are related to food production, the manufacturing process may involve corrosive chemicals, suspended solids, and continuous circulation duties.
Pump selection requires consideration of chemical compatibility, abrasion resistance, temperature, solid content, and long-term operational stability.
Changyu provides corrosion-resistant pump solutions for feed and food additive applications, including UHMWPE lined slurry pumps, fluoroplastic chemical pumps, and centrifugal transfer pumps selected according to actual process conditions.
Feed and Food Additives Industry Pumping Applications
Different production sections in feed and food additive plants handle different types of liquids. Acidic and alkaline solutions used for processing, additive slurry containing suspended particles, and liquid raw materials requiring continuous circulation all create different requirements for pump selection.
For this reason, Changyu selects pumps according to the actual process conditions rather than simply according to the fluid name. Chemical concentration, solid content, viscosity, temperature, wear resistance, and continuous operation requirements all influence the final pump configuration.
Changyu’s feed and food additives pump solutions cover key process sections including:
Changyu’s chlor alkali pump solutions cover key process sections including:
Acid and Alkali Liquid Transfer / Additive Slurry Transfer / Liquid Raw Material Circulation / High Temperature Additive Processing
Acid and Alkali Liquid Transfer
Application:
Food additive production often requires acidic and alkaline solutions for reaction adjustment, cleaning processes, and chemical preparation.
Common liquids may include organic acids, inorganic acids, alkaline solutions, and corrosive process liquids.
The pump needs stable corrosion resistance while maintaining reliable operation under continuous production conditions.
Recommended Pumps
Main selection factors:
- Acid or alkali concentration
- Operating temperature
- Flow rate
- Head requirement
- Chemical compatibility
- Seal reliability
CYF Series Fluoroplastic Centrifugal Pump
CYF Series Hydrochloric Acid Centrifugal Transfer Pump
CYF Series Acid Transfer Chemical Centrifugal Pump
Additive Slurry Transfer
Application:
Some feed additives and food additive production processes involve slurry containing suspended particles or solid materials.
Unlike clean liquid transfer, these applications require both corrosion resistance and wear resistance.
The UHB Series UHMWPE corrosion-resistant slurry pump is suitable for handling corrosive slurry containing solid particles, helping improve service life under abrasive conditions.
Recommended Pumps:
Main selection factors:
- Particle size
- Slurry concentration
- Corrosion characteristics
- Flow rate
- Wear resistance
UHB Series UHMWPE Corrosion Resistant Pump
UHB Series Horizontal Chemical Slurry Pump
UHB Series Industrial Slurry Pumps
Liquid Raw Material Circulation
Application:
Liquid ingredients and process fluids often require continuous circulation during production.
The pump should provide stable hydraulic performance while maintaining compatibility with the processed liquid.
For general liquid circulation duties, Changyu selects suitable centrifugal pump solutions according to the actual medium characteristics.
Recommended Pumps:
Horizontal Centrifugal Water Pump | CYW Series
High Temperature Additive Processing
Application:
Some additive production processes involve heated liquids where temperature resistance becomes an important factor.
The pump material and structure should be selected according to operating temperature and chemical properties.
Recommended Pumps:
CYG Series High Temperature Chemical Pump
Pump Selection by Feed & Food Additives Process
| Process | Pumped Medium | Main Challenge | Recommended Pump |
|---|---|---|---|
| Acid & Alkali Transfer | Organic acid / alkaline solution | Chemical corrosion | CYF Series |
| Additive Slurry Transfer | Additive slurry + particles | Corrosion + wear | UHB Series |
| Liquid Raw Material Circulation | Process liquid | Continuous operation | CYW / CYF |
| High Temperature Processing | Heated chemical liquid | Temperature resistance | CYG Series |
| Hazardous Chemical Transfer | Corrosive liquid | Leakage control | CYQ Series |
Note: Pump selection should be based on the actual operating conditions, including chemical properties, solids content, temperature, and flow requirements, rather than selecting the same pump type for every feed and food additive application.
