The problem: Extracting and pumping aggressive chemicals from contaminated soil can be a costly process
Collecting, transferring and disposing of harsh chemicals from the environment can be cumbersome and quite expensive. The capital costs of conventional pump and treating systems are high. These systems often require the installation of recovery wells with rotary, stainless steel submersible pumps. In addition to the high capital costs associated with conventional pump and treating systems, the operation and maintenance of these systems is cost prohibitive. Peristaltic pumps are a lower cost solution; however the pump tubes require frequent replacement when exposed to aggressive chemicals.
The solution: A long-lasting tube that enables the use of a peristaltic pump for environmental remediation
GORE® High-Resilience Tubing is engineered to handle aggressive media and is well designed for use with peristaltic pumps, which offers environmental professionals with an alternative to costly pump and treatment systems. These tubes maintain a stable flow rate for thousands of hours while pumping chemicals that often attack other tubing materials. Their chemical resistance and versatility enable them to last longer than other types of tubing, even in the most challenging situations.
