Diaphragm = toxic liquids.

Centrifugal = corrosive and slurry (Ref : Mccbe Smith).

Sir how the answer is diaphragm pump?

KDJ said:   1 decade ago
It should be gear pump because gear breaks thickened slurry into acceptable pressure.

The answer will be Diaphragm Pump.

Gear pump is for Viscous liquid with no suspended solids.

Diaphragm pump is for corrosive and slurry.

Centrifugal pump is inappropriate for viscous liquids.

Reciprocating pump is inappropriate for Slurry.

Diaphragm pump is usually used in the industry so diaphragm is right.

LSHS more viscosity fluid, so I think it's is a gear pump.

Centrifugal pumps use me my industry for slurry.

Geho pump is a reciprocative pump, it's used to transfer the digest Baxcite slurry.

The slurry is thick that is highly viscous so I think gear pump is the right answer.
