Glen Ellyn, IL - BLACKHAWK ENVIRONMENTAL COMPANY'S Anchor
Pump®, positive displacement piston pump, effectively
cleans up and recovers Dense Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (DNAPL).
Typically DNAPL is found in 20' to 120' deep wells with DNAPL
often residing in the bottom few feet or inches of the well.
These viscous, heavy, sticky and corrosive liquids are difficult
to successfully recover. Many types of pumps, including "Pneumatic
Passive Fill Air Displacement Pumps" and "Electric
Submersible Pumps" are used without much success because
they do not suck liquid from the bottom of the well, corrode
the pumps and emulsify the DNAPL, making the product difficult
to treat once recovered.
Black hawk's Anchor Pump effectively pumps viscous/sticky
liquids such as coal tar, creosote and other DNAPL products.
The Anchor Pump's unique slow and gentle pump action uses
a very low recovery rate that eliminates product emulsification
and pump corrosion. The low flow rate accommodates the DNAPL's
yield into the well and keeps from emulsifying the product.
In addition, the Anchor Pump draws product from the bottom
of the well.
The Anchor Pump is a plunger pump, with a reciprocation action,
that mechanically recovers fluid from the well bottom, independent
of the well's liquid level, while maintaining a constant flow
recovery rate. It features a top head drive mechanical oil
well type sucker rod that effectively recovers all types of
DNAPL products. Its smooth controlled flow recovery has the
ability to tune the rate of the recovery to the yield of the
formation being pumped; preventing premature silting or degradation
of the recovery well.
The Anchor Pump's deep recovery capabilities can produce
400 psi of pressure. Anchor Pump can be set for a flow range
of 0 to 11 US GPM. Anchor Pumps feature top head mechanical-drive
mechanisms and uncomplicated controls, making installation
and on-site maintenance easy - even under the toughest conditions.
The unit can be powered pneumatically, electrically or by
windmill.
