The world population has now exceeded 8 billion and is still growing. Food is indispensable for human life, and chemical fertilizers are indispensable for the stable production of food. Against this backdrop, there are special pumps that play an active role in huge plants producing fertilizers, for which demand continues to increase.
This project is an example of our pumps delivered to a fertilizer plant in India, which were selected due to their high reliability and maintainability. Ammonia, which is highly toxic and volatile, is the main raw material used in fertilizer plants, so pumps play an important role and require high safety performance and special construction. This pump integrates our advanced manufacturing technologies, including a multi-stage structure with several impellers in series to increase pressure, a high pump head with high pumping capability, and high rotation speed.
EBARA has been engaged in developing high-pressure pumps for fertilizer plants since 1969 and boasts a global market share of 100% for high-pressure ammonia pumps, the heart of fertilizer production plants. Nearly 400 of our pumps play an active role in fertilizer production, supporting the lives of people across the globe.
