Pumping/metering Corrosive Chemicals
Pumping/metering Corrosive Chemicals
(OP)
We are in the exploratory stage of a project to deliver a specified amount of some chemicals into a mixing tank. We have a few ideas but, in order not to 're-invent the wheel', we would like to bring in some external expertise to advise us on which would be the best solution. Would someone be able to recommend a company?

Remember this is a positive displacement pump. 1 RPM = 1 constant volume moving forward... ie, PRESSURES INCREASE FAST! design around that.
As far as a company to do this engineering. I think that your pump supplier's expertise should be sufficient.
I've had a lot of good experiences using a Moyno progressive-cavity/pd pump for metering, and also with Watson-Marlowe & Masterflex tubing/peristaltic pumps.

If the chemicals are hazardous, focus on means to minimize personnel exposure when handling them, by minimizing the type of handling required. Pump them directly from the drums or totes that they're supplied in if that's possible.

You need more than just a pump. In addition, you will need other components such as controls, piping, instruments, etc.
What you need is an industry expert. What industry (process) are you involved with?

Do you looking for pump mfg or engineering company to make engineering first?
It seem to be a small project, it is better to do by your own.
If you need a specified amount in a reactor for example, you will use a metering pump if capacity is low.
If your applications fall in capacity of metering pump, you will use:
