In addition to manufacturing customized pump types, Apollo offers comprehensive services and technical advice for integrating and maintaining pump systems in fertilizer production.
Can-type pumps for demanding ammonia applications in fertilizer production
Apollo Gößnitz GmbH supplied GLKV and HPTV vertical multistage pot pumps for a fertilizer production plant.
The GLKV pump is designed specifically for loading liquid ammonia wagons and can deliver up to 200 m³/h of liquid ammonia at a delivery head of 190 m.
The HPTV vertical high-pressure pump reliably delivers ammonia at an operating temperature of -33 °C. The ammonia pump is installed outdoors in ATEX Zone 2; Zone 1 EX classification is maintained within the piping and pump.
These solutions meet the highest standards for operational safety, efficiency, and explosion protection.
Process pump solutions for urea fertilizer production

For decades, Apollo Goessnitz GmbH has supplied reliable centrifugal pumps for the production of agricultural fertilizers.
The fertilizer manufacturer's product portfolio includes single-stage KRC end-suction pumps, multi-stage high-pressure pumps, side channel pumps, magnetically coupled pumps, and axially split centrifugal pumps.
Even demanding media, such as acidic condensate with dissolved gas, ammonium urea, ammonium nitrate urea, and ammonium carbonate solutions, are safely and efficiently pumped. These pumps meet the highest standards for operational safety, corrosion resistance, and energy efficiency, ensuring standard-compliant, economical, and sustainable fertilizer production.
