Recycling is a growing industry, driven by the need to reduce waste. Pumps play a crucial role in various recycling processes, often operating under demanding conditions. That’s why you need a strong and reliable pump for your recycling plant, this is where Gorman-Rupp pumps excel.
Whether you’re recycling paper, construction materials, wood, plastics, metals, or other materials, you need pumps you can rely on.
A common application is dust suppression. Gorman-Rupp provides high-head pumps to supply water to spraying systems. Washing is another key process, ensuring materials are cleaned for further processing. The wastewater from these operations needs to be pumped to treatment plants and reintroduced into the cycle.
Landfills also require water removal. Electric or diesel-powered self-priming centrifugal pumps are commonly used for this task.
Our self-priming pumps are mounted above ground, offering easy access for inspection, maintenance, and repair. With an innovative front inspection design, you can access the pump’s interior without removing piping or disrupting drive alignments. Smart engineering!
For recycling, choose the best pumps available. Choose Gorman-Rupp.
Reliable, efficient, and easy to maintain- Gorman-Rupp self-priming pumps handle liquids containing air, solids, and debris while keeping maintenance hassle-free. Thanks to automatic repriming, they continue running even if the suction line is completely empty. Their above-ground installation ensures easy servicing, eliminating the need for confined space entry.
Designed for demanding conditions, Gorman-Rupp dry-prime pumps automatically remove air from the suction line, allowing for immediate pumping without manual priming. They deliver high flow rates, large solids handling, strong suction power, and energy-efficient operation- ideal for tough applications that require reliability and quick deployment.
The most widely used pump type, centrifugal pumps operate with rotating impellers to create a steady fluid flow. Known for their simple design, minimal moving parts, and smooth operation, they provide a cost-effective solution for general fluid transfer. Available in various sizes and materials, Gorman-Rupp standard centrifugal pumps ensure high efficiency and consistent performance.
More than just a pump- Gorman-Rupp pump systems are fully engineered solutions integrating self-priming pumps, protective enclosures, and intelligent self-cleaning technology. Designed for above-ground installation, they provide seamless, low-maintenance operation while eliminating the need for deep pits, submerged components, and expensive servicing.
The recycling industry uses self-priming pumps, prime assisted pumps, and standard centrifugal pumps for duties such as dust suppression, washing processes, wastewater transfer, and landfill water removal. Pump selection depends on the specific application, the type of materials being recycled, and the required flow rate and head.
Common pump applications in recycling include dust suppression using high-head pumps to supply water to spraying systems, washing of materials before further processing, transfer of wastewater from washing and processing operations to treatment plants, and water removal at landfill sites.
Recycling operations involving paper, construction materials, wood, plastics, and metals can generate significant amounts of dust. High-head pumps supply water to spraying systems that suppress dust at the source. Gorman-Rupp provides self-priming and standard centrifugal pumps suited for this duty, selected based on the required pressure and flow rate.
Self-priming pumps handle liquids containing air, solids, and debris, and reprime automatically when the suction line runs empty. In recycling environments, where wastewater contains a wide range of contaminants from different material streams, this ensures reliable operation without manual intervention. Above-ground installation provides direct access for maintenance.
Gorman-Rupp pumps support the recycling of paper, construction materials, wood, plastics, metals, and other materials. The pumps are involved in supporting processes such as washing, wastewater handling, and dust suppression rather than in the recycling of materials directly.
Wastewater from washing and processing operations in recycling plants needs to be transferred to treatment facilities and, where possible, reintroduced into the production cycle. Self-priming and standard centrifugal pumps are commonly used for this duty, handling solids-laden wastewater reliably and continuously.
Electric or diesel-powered self-priming centrifugal pumps are commonly used for water removal at landfill sites. These pumps handle contaminated water containing debris and solids, and their self-priming capability allows reliable operation even when water levels and flow conditions vary.
Above-ground installation allows maintenance teams to access pumps directly for inspection, maintenance, and repair without confined space entry. Gorman-Rupp self-priming pumps also feature a front inspection design that provides access to the pump interior without dismantling piping or disturbing the drive alignment, reducing maintenance time.
Yes. Gorman-Rupp offers pump sets in both mobile and stationary configurations. Options include the PMB (stationary electric), S-Line (mobile diesel), E-Line (mobile electric), membrane pumps, and trailer-mounted wheelsets. For permanent installations, the Reliasource / SCS pump system provides a fully engineered above-ground solution with self-cleaning sump technology.
Yes. Gorman-Rupp Europe provides engineering-driven application support for recycling projects, including pump selection, system analysis, local assembly, testing, and commissioning assistance from its European facilities. Training is available through the Gorman-Rupp Academy.
