Vacuum pumps are widely used in many fields due to their ability to create and maintain a vacuum environment, as follows:
1. Industrial manufacturing
Plastic machinery: used for extruder degassing, shaping tables (sections), EPS foaming, drying, pneumatic conveying devices, vinyl chloride gas extraction and compression, etc.
Petrochemical: used for gas recovery, gas boosting, crude oil vacuum distillation, exhaust compression, polyester production, PVC production, tail gas recovery, etc.
Metallurgy: used for degassing in steel production.
Wood processing: used for holding and grabbing, wood drying, wood preservation, log impregnation.
Papermaking machinery: used for black liquor evaporation, pulp washing machine, lime slurry and filter in pulp and paper production.
Ceramics: When coating on the surface of glass, metal and other materials, vacuum pumps are used to create a vacuum environment, and the material is deposited on the surface to form a thin film by physical or chemical methods.
2. Scientific research
Laboratory: Vacuum pumps are used to create a high vacuum environment for various scientific experiments and research, such as evaporation, sputtering, spectral analysis, etc.
Materials Science: Vacuum pumps are used in materials science experiments to ensure the purity of the experimental environment.
Semiconductor Manufacturing: Vacuum pumps are used in cleaning, thin film deposition, ion excitation and other steps to ensure the cleanliness of the production environment and production efficiency.
3. Medical Health
Medical Equipment Manufacturing: Vacuum pumps are used to create a vacuum environment to ensure the normal operation of equipment, such as the manufacture and maintenance of X-ray tubes, electron accelerators and other equipment.
Hemodialysis: Vacuum pumps play an important role in medical equipment such as hemodialysis.
Sterilization: Vacuum pumps can be used for steam sterilization.
4. Food and Beverages
Food Processing: Vacuum pumps are used for vacuum packaging to remove air from the packaging to extend the shelf life of food. At the same time, they are also used for vacuum drying and concentration of food.
Mineral Water: Used for degassing of mineral water.
5. Environmental Protection and Energy
Wastewater Treatment: Vacuum pumps can be used for wastewater treatment, biogas compression, vacuum water addition, wastewater purification and other links.
Refrigeration System: Vacuum pumps are used to remove air and other gases in the system to ensure the refrigeration effect and energy efficiency of the system.
6. Aerospace
Vacuum pumps are used in the testing of rocket engines and the manufacturing process of satellite equipment to provide the necessary vacuum conditions. At the same time, they are also used to clean and inspect parts in the manufacturing process of aircraft and spacecraft.
7. Other fields
Packaging: Vacuum pumps can be used to inflate packaging bags, vacuum packaging and ventilation packaging (MAP), PET container production, drying and conveying of plastic particles, etc.
Construction: Vacuum pumps can be used in areas such as concrete pouring, pipeline cleaning, floor cleaning, etc. to improve work efficiency and quality.
Electricity: Vacuum pumps can be used for condenser vacuuming, vacuum water absorption, flue gas desulfurization, fly ash transportation, turbine sealing pipe exhaust, vacuum exhaust, and exhaust of geothermal gas.
In summary, the application fields of vacuum pumps are very wide, covering industrial manufacturing, scientific research, medical health, food and beverage, environmental protection and energy, aerospace and many other fields. With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the accelerated advancement of industrialization, the application scope of vacuum pumps will continue to expand and deepen.
