##### Managing acidic trade waste requires reliable equipment, appropriate materials and effective containment.

Allflo Pumps was engaged by a chemical processing facility to deliver a safe and robust solution for transferring **diluted nitric acid and sulphuric acid**.

### The Challenge

The system needed to pump acidic waste into a pipeline shared by multiple pumps discharging into a **common header**, creating risks around corrosion, pressure variation, and potential leakage. Strict safety and containment standards also had to be met.

### The Allflo Solution

Allflo designed and manufactured a **custom-engineered acid handling pumpset**, tailored to the application.

The solution included:

- **Remko 316 stainless steel self-priming pumps**
- Full **316 stainless steel construction** for corrosion resistance
- A **heavy-duty stainless steel base**
- Installation within a **stainless steel bunded area** for spill containment
- Custom **stainless steel pipework and valves**, fabricated and installed on site

### Performance

The pumpset was commissioned successfully and is operating as specified:

- **Flow rate:** 18 litres per second
- **Discharge pressure:** 220 kPa

### Outcome

This project demonstrates Allflo’s capability to deliver **engineered pumping solutions for corrosive and high-risk trade waste applications**, where safety, reliability, and material selection are critical.

If you’re managing acidic trade waste or chemical transfer, Allflo can design a solution to suit your site and compliance requirements.
