02 / Pump platform

Advanced Titanium Fluid Systems for Pulp & Paper and ClO₂ Processes

Titanium centrifugal and axial-flow pump platforms for severe corrosion, pulp stock, bleaching, and ClO₂ circulation duties.

Extreme Corrosion Service

Titanium fluid systems for pulp, paper, and chlorine dioxide processes

Modern bleaching and chlorine dioxide preparation duties can combine strong oxidizers, elevated chloride concentration, and temperature. Standard stainless and high-alloy steels may be vulnerable to pitting or localized corrosion when the material is not matched to the actual process chemistry.

Vantimond titanium and titanium-palladium alloy pump platforms use TA2 / ASTM Grade 2 and TA9 / ASTM Grade 7 options to support corrosion-sensitive pulp, paper, bleaching, and chemical circulation duties. Final alloy, fabrication, hydraulic, seal, and inspection requirements are confirmed for each project.

Core Technical Highlights

Materials, passage geometry, and containment

Titanium material protection

Selected titanium alloys form a stable passive oxide film in suitable oxidizing and chloride-bearing environments. Material suitability still depends on concentration, temperature, impurities, velocity, and crevice conditions.

Anti-cavitation and clog-resistant hydraulics

Open or semi-open impeller options and enlarged passages support fibre-bearing and solid-liquid duties. The selected geometry is verified against NPSH, consistency, solids, and operating range.

Heavy-duty bearing and seal systems

SKF, FAG, or approved-equivalent bearing options can be paired with cartridge double mechanical seals and external barrier-fluid systems where required by the process duty.
