Discovery Channel Gold Mining with the Subdredge
The EDDY Pump 4-inch Sub-Dredge has been dredging gold now for 2 weeks on the frozen Bering Sea. The Sub-Dredge is outperforming anyone’s expectations and is truly becoming the next big thing in underwater gold mining.
Gold Mining on the Bering Sea with the EDDY Pump Subdredge
For the past two weeks EDDY Pump has been deploying its 4-inch Sub-Dredge under the ice of the Bering Sea. Our remote operated Sub-Dredge has exceeded all expectations and has been pumping gold rich material at rates of up to 100 cubic yards of gold rich material an hour.
Simulation Comparison to Centrifugal Pumps
Shows a comparison between the EDDY Pump and a Centrifugal Pump along with the benefits for high corrosive, high viscous, high solids, high abrasive and high debris laden non-clog pumping.
EDDY Pump Success with the US Navy
The U.S. Navy pumps brine for distillation units, transfers sewage from CHT tanks and pumps wastewater for shipyards. Conventional pumping technology, however, was requiring high levels of maintenance. The U.S. Navy needed an alternative pumping technology that could accomplish these tasks without the downtime or repairs.
Brine Pumps
Brine pumps have always created a vast amount of problems for distillation units aboard U.S. Navy ships. Conventional centrifugal pumps were constantly being replaced or under maintenance from the high

How Lower Efficiency Can Reduce Overall Cost – Vortex Action
Joe Evans, Ph.D
When we start the pump selection process for a particular application, one of our major concerns is efficiency. If several different models, of similar quality, meet our conditions we will usually select the one with the highest efficiency. After all, higher efficiency reduces the cost of electrical power. There are times, however, when efficiency can take a back seat to the true, overall cost of operation.
Submerged Oil Recovery
During oil spills, up to 10-30% of the oil becomes absorbed on the suspended material and then deposited on the ocean floor. This process mainly is subjugated to narrow coastal zones and shallow waters where water is subjected to heavy mixing. This subsurface oil...
Safe Liner Dredging Equipment
In order to meet the difficult criteria needed for liner dredging, EDDY Pump Corporation will utilize a custom dredging system capable of meeting the stringent requirements of this challenge. This technology has been proven as an effective tool on many projects in the...
Low Turbidity Dredging
In the spring of 2002 EDDY Pump Corporation (EPC ) was selected to conduct a phase 1 pilot project on the St. Clair River. In the past, this particular Project site had been part of a targeted Remedial Action Plan (RAP) shared by Canada and the United States that was...
