Knife gate valves provide a lower valve pressure drop and are better suited for handling slurries, solids, and other fluid/solids mixtures than ordinary plug, butterfly, or ball valves. Supcon manufactures knife gate valves for pulp and paper, chemical, petrochemical, power, mining, wastewater and other applications.
