Equipment for chemical and petrochemical plants

Separation, filtration and process equipment for chemical and petrochemical plants — supplied, installed and commissioned.

Our Expertise

Chemical and petrochemical plants run equipment against aggressive media, where material selection decides service life. We supply separation and filtration equipment specified against the actual fluid, concentration, temperature and duty cycle rather than against a catalogue page, and we state the material selection basis in writing. Installation and commissioning are executed under the site's permit-to-work regime, and the handover package contains the test records and the settings actually used.

Problems we address

  • Material selection driven by price rather than by the actual medium
  • Equipment availability limited by long spare parts lead times
  • Commissioning without acceptance criteria, so disputes follow
  • Work executed under permit-to-work and classified-zone constraints
Equipment

Equipment in scope

  • Solid-liquid separation and filtration units
  • Process equipment in contact with aggressive media
  • Effluent treatment and water recovery circuits
  • Ancillary pumping and transfer equipment
Constraints

Operational Constraints

  • Continuous exposure to aggressive chemistry across the pH range
  • Thermal cycling between cryogenic and high-temperature service
  • Permit-to-work, ATEX and confined-space regimes on every intervention
  • Long turnaround intervals that make equipment selection decisive
Products

Recommended equipment

  • Filtration and solid-liquid separation equipment for aggressive media
  • Process equipment specified against the documented service conditions
  • Material selection note issued with every quotation
  • Critical spares package with stated lead times
Shutdowns

Types of Shutdowns

  • Planned turnaround (every 3–5 years, 14–30 days)
  • Catalyst regeneration or replacement shutdown
  • Emergency shutdown on leak detection or LEL alarm
Risk mitigation

Risks We Help You Avoid

  • Premature failure from a material incompatible with the medium
  • Loss of containment during a poorly commissioned start-up
  • Performance guarantee never verified before warranty expiry
  • Extended outage waiting on an imported spare

Sector FAQ

How do you select materials for our process?

From the fluid, its concentration, the temperature and the real duty cycles. The basis of the selection is set out in a written selection note attached to the quotation, so it is auditable rather than implicit.

Do you work in classified zones?

Installation and commissioning are executed under the site's permit-to-work regime, including in classified zones, with the supplier prequalifications the client requires.
