Sugar
A flume is a channel for water, in the form of an open declined gravity chute whose walls are raised above the surrounding terrain, in contrast to a trench or ditch. Flumes route water from a diversion dam or weir to a desired material collection location, it is specially shaped and engineered structures employed to measure the flow of water in open channels.

Sugar campaigns are over in a relatively short time. For optimum economy and ecology it is all the more important, therefore to have a reliable sealing systems. In the past it was normal for juice pumps to be equipped with double seals to cope with the tendency to crystallization and carbonation. Today the use of single seals is possible in most of the cases due to availability of modern materials and new seal compartment geometries.
