Slurry Pump Supplied In Asia’s Largest Biogas Plant In Indore By Sujal Engineering
The Slurry Pumps prove themselves at the largest Biogas Plant in Indore, Madhya Pradesh.
Sujal Engineering, the leading manufacturer and supplier of slurry pumps, recently completed the supply of energy-efficient slurry pumps in the largest biogas plant in India.
A slurry pump is a pump specially designed for pumping liquid containing solid particles or slurry.
Slurries are specialized compounds found in various processing industries. It is a combination of two different properties, solids and liquids.
Thus slurry pumps come in distinct designs and construction to adjust according to multiple types of slurry.
Having a sprawling state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, we developed higher-end pumps with electronic intelligence and systems to cater to various pumping applications.
What are slurries?
Slurries are a mixture of solids and liquids found in many processing industries, including sanitary industries such as food, dairy, beverage processing, and biopharmaceutical manufacturing.
The size of the particles in slurries ranges from one micron in diameter up to hundreds of millimeters in diameter.
The size of the particle crucially impacts a pump’s ability to move a slurry through a process line.
Slurries have a few essential characteristics:
- Abrasive
- Thick consistency
- It may contain a high amount of solids
- Usually, settle quickly
- Require more power to operate
What is a slurry pump?
An Industrial Slurry pump is a centrifugal type pump designed for pumping highly abrasive or corrosive liquids that may contain solvents, acids, alcohols, or petroleum.
With a low specific speed design, slurry pumps allow slow operating speed that reduces the velocity of the solid particle and wear rates.
Our slurry pumps are robust in design and can withstand extensive additional wear. We offer a complete range of slurry pumps that can easily handle light to severe slurry duty.
Types of slurry pump
The five different types of slurry pumps are:
- Centrifugal Slurry Pump
- Horizontal Slurry Pump
- Vertical Slurry Pump
- Submerged Slurry Pump
- Submersible Slurry Pump
How slurry pumps can be used for pumping slurries?
Working principle of slurry pump
There are many different types of slurry pumps that can be used for pumping slurries, but the most common is the centrifugal slurry pump.
Industries rely on centrifugal slurry pumps for pumping slurry. Specifying the optimum combination of speed and materials; centrifugal slurry pumps are ideal pumps for pumping priorities.
The slurry pump uses the centrifugal force generated by a rotating impeller to impact kinetic energy to the slurry, similar to how a water-like liquid would move through a standard centrifugal pump.
Centrifugal slurry pumps provide,
- stable operation,
- maximum wear life,
- operational flexibility, and
- minimal energy consumption.
How does the slurry pump help in Biogas Plant?
Pumps are an important component of every biogas plant. A biogas plant is a space that provides oxygen-free conditions where anaerobic digestion can occur.
For anaerobic digestion, pump technologies are required to ensure the perfect control of the treatment, grinding, transfer, and distribution of effluents in biogas production processes.
Our quality-driven industrial centrifugal slurry pumps effectively transfer viscous and abrasive slurries and achieve the highest possible yield in your anaerobic digester.

Things To Consider While Choosing Slurry Pump
The selection of the right type of slurry pump depends on the various factors, the main six factors to be considered are,
- Performance
- Material Conveyed
- Sealing Type
- Transmission Mode
- On-site Working Conditions
- Acidity Of The Slurry
