An impeller of a rotating machine according to at least one embodiment includes: a disc; a cover disposed on an opposite side of a radial passage from the disc in an axial direction; and a blade disposed between the disc and the cover. A back surface of the disc has a recess extending in a circumferential direction in a radial range where the blade is disposed.

A pump impeller, which can be part of a pump, has an impeller surface and blades being arranged on the impeller surface, wherein at least one of the blades is a blade of the first type which has a blade edge which is inclined toward the front in the rotational direction. The pump impeller can also have blades of a first type and of a second type, the blade geometries thereof differing from one another. A housing element for a pump or of a pump has a housing inner wall defining a flow channel for a fluid medium extending along a central axis. The cross section of the flow channel is greater in a main flow direction and the housing inner wall has a surface structure configured such that it counteracts a return flow counter to the main flow direction along the housing inner wall of the fluid medium.

A centrifugal pump assembly includes a pump head, a pump base defining a pump inlet and a pump outlet, a fluid outlet channel from the pump head to the pump outlet, impellers, defining an impeller fluid channel between an impeller inlet and outlet and connected with one of rotor shaft segments including a positive fit coupling for torque transfer between at least two rotor shaft segments, and one or more pump stage housing segments arranged between the pump base and the pump head. The pump stage housing segments have a structure defining a guide passage for receiving pumped fluid from the impeller outlet of the impellers and for guiding pumped fluid to the impeller inlet of another one of the impellers or to the pump head. The pump stage housing segments each have a structure defining at least a part of a wall section of the fluid outlet channel.

An advanced hydrodynamic cavitation system includes a housing, a first stator with angled ridges, a second stator that is circular with angled ridges, a rotor having rotor blades housed within the second stator, and a driveshaft, and is configured to work with a motor, a pump, and oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide or ozone to form free radicals. Hydrodynamic cavitation occurs (1) on the leading edge of the rotor blades; (2) in the constriction between the rotor blades, depending on the design; (3) in the gap between the first stator and the rotor blades; and (4) in the gap between the second stator and the rotor blades. The four cavitation regions may coalesce to become a steady-state supercavitation cloud that removes unwanted, toxic or contaminated organic and inorganic compounds, specifically with the ability to treat and decontaminate sludge, wastewater, ballast water, drinking water, harmful algal blooms, and biomedical waste.

A centrifugal pump (1) including: a pump housing (3) enclosing a pump chamber (13), the pump chamber (13) including a suction inlet (15) and a pressure outlet (17); an impeller (19) rotatably arranged within the pump chamber (13) for being driven to rotate about a rotor axis (R), the suction inlet (15) being located coaxial with the rotor axis (R); and at least one stationary scraper (39). The impeller (19) includes an impeller base (31) and at least one or more impeller vanes (33) extending from the impeller base (31) towards the suction inlet (15). Each of the impeller vanes (33) includes a radially innermost vane path (45) describing during impeller rotation a central volume (41) that is wider towards the suction inlet (15) than towards the impeller base (31) and configured to receive the at least one scraper (39) projecting from the suction inlet (15) into the central volume (41).
