NASH Vacuum Pumps for Wastewater Treatment Plants

Many larger wastewater treatment plants use Anaerobic Digestion, a bacterial process that is carried out in the absence of oxygen. Compared to the conventional activated sludge process, Anaerobic Digestion is more energy efficient, reduces dewatered biosolids by 7-12 times (as compared to conventional processes) and produces useful methane gas (biogas).

Sizing Vacuum Pumps for Cleaning Milking Systems

Early pipeline milking systems were commonly flooded during cleaning. Flood cleaning is practical for systems with small diameter milklines, short pipelines and few milking units. Flood cleaning becomes impractical as milkline diameter and length and the number of milking units is increased. Excessive water volume is required and the flow velocities and corresponding mechanical cleaning action ...

A study of micromachined displacement pumps for vacuum generation

Micromachined vacuum pumps are one of the key components in miniature systems for chemical and biological analysis. Miniature sensors and analyzers are normally operated at the pressure range lower than a few millitorr. We are developing a micromachined vacuum pump that is comprised of a mechanical rough pump integrated with micromachined ion-pumps. The rough pump generates a low vacuum of tens...

Methods for characterization of mechanical and electrical prosthetic vacuum pumps.

Despite increasingly widespread adoption of vacuum-assisted suspension systems in prosthetic clinical practices, there remain gaps in the body of scientific knowledge guiding clinicians' choices of existing products. In this study, we identified important pump-performance metrics and developed techniques to objectively characterize the evacuation performance of prosthetic vacuum pumps. The sens...
