Sector Application
Knife Gate Valve for FGD / Ash Handling / Coal Preparation / Slag Granulation / Heavy Media
Moderate evidence
What LibertyCES's vendor documentation shows
Pairing cell, not a vendor claim: AVCO does not name FGD/ash/coal-prep, but its named industries include chemical and wastewater, and the 6100's gates are polished/lapped on both sides with a machined bevel on the bottom edge specifically to cut through solids — the same solids-laden isolation problem the Schurco pumps above are sized for. Flagged as an engineering pairing, not a vendor-stated application.
