PALM OIL MILL - TREATED EFFLUENT LAND DISPOSAL OR COMPOSITE

Dear Zainuddin

As per your request , submersible pump is applicable for this job but take note as follow
a) pump impeller has to be non clog design, as the effluent will contain high solids and the solid content
depend very much on which  location of the pond you locate the pump

b) Submersible pumps are centirfugal pmps , and flow will dropped sharply if the discharge pressure
  increased , the Pipe is likely  to  be clogged due to scaling after sometime

c) if you are pumping about 1000kilometers away , need to work out the discharge pressure in the system carefully  or you may no discharge at the end

d) Two stage Progessive cavity pumps will be most suitable as it can handle higher solid content, positive displacement and max pressure of 12 bar

e) as this is not a production pumps , dont go for too big or oversize capacity as bigger pump means not only paying more for the pump but also higher maintenace spares . A capacity of 40 to 60 m3 hr should be  ideal
