Waste Management of Corrosive Byproducts
Unload acids and bases from storage tanks
When handling highly corrosive liquids such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, or potassium hydroxide, efficient and safe unloading from storage tanks is essential. Our chemical transfer pumps, such as the Viking 327A Series, are built with specialized materials that provide superior resistance to these aggressive substances. These pumps ensure the seamless and secure transfer of corrosive liquids, minimizing the risk of leaks, spills, and equipment damage.
Move chemicals to processing systems
Once unloaded, acids and bases need to be transported to processing systems with precision and safety. Our chemical metering pumps, like the Viking 8127A Series, offer the accuracy needed for controlled flow rates, ensuring that the right amount of chemicals is delivered to the process. These pumps are essential for applications such as pH adjustment, neutralization, or chemical reactions, where precision is critical.
Transfer processed acids and bases to storage tanks
After acids and bases have been processed or reacted, safe storage is critical. Our Viking LVP Series pumps are specially designed for handling processed chemicals that remain highly corrosive. These pumps are constructed from materials like stainless steel or special alloys to ensure they resist corrosion while maintaining the integrity of the product and pump longevity. The precise transfer of acids or bases from the processing stage to storage tanks reduces the risk of degradation or chemical breakdown during transit.
Circulation of chemicals within processing units
In applications requiring chemical recirculation, such as continuous processing or reaction stabilization, our chemical-resistant pumps facilitate the consistent movement of acids and bases within the system. This ensures that the chemicals are uniformly distributed, maintaining an even reaction rate and preventing localized corrosion or hot spots. The Viking 8127A Series, with its advanced material construction, is well-suited for such critical internal processes.
Move chemicals to distribution lines
For companies that bottle or transport corrosive chemicals, ensuring a smooth and controlled transfer of acids and bases from storage to distribution lines is vital. Arroyo's Viking LVP Series pumps offer high precision and durability, enabling the transfer of products from large storage tanks to smaller containers or bulk transportation trucks without risking equipment failure. Our pumps help maintain product quality and safety throughout the process.
Preparation for export or further processing
Our pumps facilitate the transfer of acids and bases to their final stage of production, whether for further refinement or for packaging for shipment. By using our advanced chemical pumps, manufacturers can ensure the safe handling of these volatile substances, reducing the chances of exposure or environmental damage.
- Move corrosive waste materials to disposal
- When handling waste byproducts from acid and base production, such as used chemical solutions or chemical sludges, it is critical to prevent any damage to the equipment. Our chemical feed pumps are engineered to withstand the harsh conditions of corrosive waste, offering a safe and reliable solution for transporting these materials to disposal systems. These pumps ensure environmental compliance while maintaining safety and efficiency in waste management operations.

Applications Across the Industry
Chemical pumps and equipment applications
Acid and Base Manufacturing
The highly corrosive nature of the chemicals being processed demands pumps that offer maximum resistance to chemical attack. We provide chemical pumps designed to handle the entire spectrum of pH extremes, from strong acids to caustic bases, ensuring that manufacturing processes run smoothly without downtime caused by equipment failure.
Chemical Processing Facilities
Within chemical processing plants, acids and bases are often used as reactants, neutralizing agents, or catalysts in industrial processes. Our pumps, such as the Viking 327A and 8127A Series, support these operations by ensuring the precise delivery of acids and bases into chemical reactors or neutralization systems. This precision is essential for maintaining chemical balance, avoiding overuse, and minimizing waste.
Water Treatment Plants
We distribute chemical metering pumps that ensure accurate dosing of acids or bases into water systems to meet environmental standards for wastewater discharge. These pumps provide reliable flow control even when handling aggressive chemicals, ensuring compliance and efficient treatment.
Corrosive Waste Management
Disposal of waste products generated during acid and base production or processing presents unique challenges due to the highly corrosive nature of the materials. We source pumps that can handle these byproducts, including chemical sludges and residual acid or base solutions, ensuring safe transport to disposal systems.
