A world with no processed chemicals at all would present a very inhospitable environment. No medicines and no oil-based products would mean no transportation as we know it.
A world with no processed chemicals at all would present a very inhospitable environment. No medicines and no oil-based products would mean no transportation as we know it. Drinking water would not taste good, and there would be no processed foods. Clothing would look very strange, and money would probably look like pebbles – banks like gravel pits. Practically everything that we have day-to-day contact with would be completely different – or non-existent. The chemical industry touches every industry and, therefore, us all.
Practically every rotary and diverter valve manufactured by DMN-WESTINGHOUSE can be used for handling a powdered chemical of some kind. However, for handling granular formed products, we recommend the GL series. The GL granular valve can be used in normal pressure systems. Diverter valves are extensively used throughout the chemical processing industries, and the recently launched PTD and SPTD(S) ranges are market-leading in terms of design and capability. Both models have been designed to handle chemicals and can run at extremes of high and low temperatures without fear of product escaping into the environment. Sizes range from 50mm to 200mm (PTD) or 50mm to 400mm (SPTDS-SPTD).
