Why refineries should pay attention to valve performance in hydroprocessing

Hydroprocessing is as an integral part of any refining complex. The hydrocracking process can be considered the refinery workhorse for cracking heavy feeds into commercially attractive lighter distillates, while hydrotreating does exactly what the name suggests. It is used in the treatment of contaminants in the feed, resulting in improved output purity and enabling compliance with ever-stricter environmental regulations.

Four new icebreakers from Arctech Helsinki Shipyard improve safety with Valmet DNA

Arctech Helsinki Shipyard has built four icebreaking vessels for Sovcomflot, the largest shipping company in Russia. One is a supply vessel, and three of them are stand-by vessels. All four benefit from the advanced Valmet DNA automation system.

SCA Ortviken PM 5 breaking production records

As the existing slice control was a 17-year-old Valmet Jetmatic system, it was natural to look at upgrading it to a Valmet IQ Slice Profiler. Installation and start-up of the new system went smoothly and PM 5 now has a stable and modern system to control the basis weight profile.

Augmented reality to enhance vessel operation

Original focused on virtual games, augmented reality is now becoming more and more significant in promoting industrial products and educating audiences about their potential. They are powerful tools for many purposes, especially in the marine sector.

Improved process efficiency with high-performance butterfly valves

Process efficiency can be defined as optimal flow capacity, minimized emission and leakage, and low energy consumption. At the same time, the first two contribute to the last – but not least: low energy consumption.

Innovative icebreaking vessel at Arctech Helsinki Shipyard

Arctech Helsinki Shipyard has once again built a high-technology vessel for demanding ice conditions.

Reliable solids measurements for centrifuge control

Vaasa Water’s Pått wastewater treatment plant wanted their new centrifuge to operate fully automatically, which requires several continuous measurements. With a Valmet TS and Valmet DS the plant can control the polymer dosing and measure the dry content. The whole project paid for itself in about 1.5 years through the considerable savings in the reprocessing costs of the dried sludge.

Improved runnability at AB Grigeo Klaipeda

To improve runnability on its PM3 board machine, AB Grigeo Klaipėda installed a Valmet IQ Web Monitoring System (WMS) to discover more about the origins and causes of web breaks.
