Rotary lobe pumps: Filling tanker trucks and the simple transport of media

Chemical substances, oils or other media require particularly high precision technology during transport. To ensure that the industrial media gets from A to B safely, state-of-the-art technology that is precise and meets all safety criteria is required. Aggressive media must not be lost during the transportation process or cause contamination during loading and unloading. But which pumping solution is suitable for making the critical step of filling as safe and fast as possible?

Efficient pump maintenance: A practical example from hanseWasser

hanseWasser, a company in the water management sector, relies on innovative technology to guarantee efficiency and sustainability. Two type VX136-105Q pumps from Vogelsang are installed in one of their large flushing trucks. These pumps play a central role in water recovery in the vehicle body, which is particularly important for large-scale sewer flushing in urban sewage networks. The VX136-105Q pumps are characterized by their compact design, high delivery rate, and easy service, making them the ideal choice for this task.

More efficient biogas production thanks to separation

Biogas plant operators face increasing economic and technical pressures: rising energy costs, stricter regulations for storage and fertiliser use, and the growing demand for operational efficiency. One often underestimated lever for optimisation is the separation of digestate – especially with a powerful screw press separator. This technology helps reduce operating costs, improve gas production, and ensure regulatory compliance more easily.

Effective liquid manure spreading in dry conditions with XSplit Separator

The challenges of liquid manure spreading in dry weather:
Slurry spreading poses particular challenges for farmers, especially during periods of dry weather. Drought causes the liquid components of the slurry to penetrate the soil quickly, while the solid fibrous matter remains on the surface. These fibers can affect the quality of the forage as they can be mixed with the grass during the next cut. This is a serious problem that can affect animal health.

Ready for the next slurry season: Pump technology maintenance

Maintenance steps and tips using the VX rotary lobe pump as an example

Whether for application on tankers, self-propelled vehicles or at the slurry pit on the farm, the pumping technology in agricultural applications must reliably pump the liquid manure and be insensitive to foreign matter such as fibrous matter, stones, ear tags or claw blocks. To ensure that it works reliably during the slurry season, it should be serviced regularly.

Wet wipes? No Trouble!

The problem with the hated sewage blockers practically solved with the help of experience

The town of Wildeshausen, located in the nature reserve of the same name, is surrounded by fields and woods and has recently experienced a strong influx of new inhabitants drawn to its natural setting. To these people, this popular holiday destination is home.
Up until a few years ago, however, problems in the sewer system pumping stations of this county town for the district of Oldenburg in Lower Saxony would often interrupt the tranquility. But when the municipality hired a former wastewater specialist from the potato processing industry, the solution was soon found. He invested in rotary lobe pumps from Vogelsang, which are resistant to foreign matter. Blockages caused by wet wipes are now a rarity.
