Low cost approach to solve issue raised due to erosion -corrosion in pump with liquid Aqueous urea. Its a diaphagram pump. Researching in this area. what areas i should focus for this .
Most important is to do an analysis on cost of quality first; What is the cost of failure of pumps, will customers lose business, lives, work efficiency, delayed projects? Based on that you can evaluate the value of the quality and your should be design specs.

Thank you, Mahzad Pakzad , for your insightful response. We are frequently experiencing pump failures due to the blockage of the outlet, which is caused by the erosion of the aluminum’s passive layer. This issue has led to recurring maintenance costs for cleaning the filter and orifice mesh in the pump. Consequently, we are considering a cost-effective approach to address this problem.
Manchimsetty Srinidhi Material Science/Materials are finding innovative solutions to problems for many equipment, including pumps, you would want to find options and based on your business needs (sales volume, criticality of quality,...) redesign the pump using new materials, a lot of people are using composites, needs capital investment, but pays off for many. 3D printed components may another option! Best of luck with your very interesting project.
