Currently, the world's population has exceeded 8 billion and continues to grow. Food is essential for human life, and chemical fertilizers are essential for the stable production of that food. Against this backdrop, there is a special pump that is used in the huge plants that produce fertilizer, for which demand continues to grow.
This project is an example of the delivery of pumps to a fertilizer plant in India, and our pumps were selected due to their high reliability and ease of maintenance. In fertilizer plants, the main raw material is ammonia, which is highly toxic and volatile, so pumps play a vital role and require high safety performance and a special structure. This pump brings together our advanced manufacturing technology, with multiple impellers arranged in series to increase pressure, a high lift for strong pumping power, and high rotation speed.
Ebara has been developing high-pressure pumps for fertilizer plants since 1969, and boasts a 100% share of the global market for high-pressure ammonia pumps, the heart of fertilizer manufacturing plants. Even now, nearly 400 pumps are in use around the world to produce fertilizer, supporting the lives of people around the world.
