Pumps for the battery production industry
20/04/2023The demand for high-quality and reliable batteries is increasing as the electric vehicle market continues to soar, and with Europe's fuel engines set to be decommissioned in 2035, the battery production industry is expected to become one of the most promising sectors in the years to come.
But of course this great opportunity comes at a price: battery manufacturing can be complex and time-consuming due to the use of strong acids that are critical to the electrochemical reaction that takes place. Handling these dangerous liquids improperly can cause massive issues to the plant, to the operators and to the environment.
This is where ARGAL pumps come in, with almost 50 years of experience in handling corrosive liquids like sulphuric acid, we have conceived and designed thermoplastic pumps to handle such dangerous liquids with efficiency and total safety.
