The reactor circulation pump pays a decisive role in the catalytic cleaning process in diesel and biodiesel production. The high system pressures and temperatures prevailing in the desulphurisation process demand maximum safety and reliability of the used equipment.

Global demand for essential products like water, gas and oil is growing, which means that pipelines and processing plants such as pressure vessels are getting bigger. To ensure continuity of supply and minimise downtime, maintenance teams need to gain safe and rapid access to critical plants that require servicing or repair.

For several years, a pump at the largest production site in Kingsport, Tennessee, USA had been causing the US chemical company Eastman problems: it was operating on a process with water at high temperature and low pressure, generating the entrainment of more than 10% gas by volume in the form of water vapor. This often caused the pumps used to fail.

Water hammer is a pressure wave that occurs when liquid flows through a pipe and there is a sudden change in the liquid velocity.

Siemens is presenting Sitrans SCM IQ, a new Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) solution for Smart Condition Monitoring, at the Hannover Messe 2021. It enables potential incidents to be detected and prevented at an early stage, thus reducing maintenance costs and downtimes, and increasing plant performance by up to ten percent.

OPW announced that is has acquired the ISO Liquid Tank Container product line from Girard Equipment, Inc., of Vero Beach, FL. Going forward, OPW will manufacture the ISO Liquid Tank Container product line at OPW’s facility in Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province, China, with emphasis on increasing OPW’s presence and product portfolio in the Asia-Pacific, Latin American and European regions.
