The most common pump for pumping either raw sewage or sludge is the centrifugal pump. Centrifugal pumps are widely used in wastewater applications because they can handle varying flow rates and are effective for moving fluids with suspended solids.

They are also robust and can be designed with features that help manage the challenges of sewage and sludge pumping.

Sewage and sludge- centrifugal.

Slurry- reciprocating (type- diaphragm).

High-viscosity fluids such as resins, paints, and oil-gear pumps.

Viscous free solid fluid- rotary.

Diaphragm pump also a type of reciprocating pump.

Diaphragm pump is used to deliver raw sewage and sludge.

Because the diaphragm pump also a type of reciprocating pump diaphragm pump used to transfer raw sewage and sludge.

Raw sewage or sluge handling by Diaphragms pump and it is a Reciprocating pump.

Sludge is best handled with gear or rotary pumps.

Reciprocating pump is used for handling fluid having high viscosity.
