Tank cleaning with high potential of savings in water and cleaning media costs
Process plants are often very extensive. Many of the plant components are interlinked and their functions coordinated. People who work in this area of plant construction know that there is generally less effort and expense involved in building a new plant, rather than adapting the existing one to meet new requirements. Despite the numerous challenges – and the restrictions imposed by the Corona pandemic and its consequences – the new and renovated production reactors went into operation again right on schedule.
Daily production set for up to 30 million gallons of fresh drinking water
This new high-tech Nova range from Börger work at pressures up to 12 bar and can also be supplied without casing for CIP (Cleaning in Place) and SIP (Sterilisation in Place) applications – or with casing for the pumping of abrasive media containing solids. The newly developed DIUS rotors in the flow-optimized pump chamber combined with an optimized pump gear unit ensure perfectly smooth running...
“Size changeover” is not necessarily a term that immediately makes people stop and pay attention in the pharmaceutical industry. However, considering the challenges in pharmaceutical manufacturing, which are characterized by cost and competitive pressure as well as strict regulations, intelligent size changeover means competitive advantages in terms of efficiency, product quality and process reliability.
