Moving toward the future with sustainable biofuels

The word “biofuel” has been a known term for many years now. However, we have transitioned into a new period of time when biofuel has become significantly more important globally. But do you know that not all biofuels are actually sustainable? And what makes a biorefinery really efficient? Let’s take a closer look.

We make customer service up close and personal

Reliability is a core element of what we as a valves partner want to provide. Being close to our pulp and paper customers and having an in-depth understanding of their production processes is a prerequisite for good service. As a Resident engineer at a customer mill, I have a unique point of view in terms of customer proximity and understanding.

Managing valve wear in FCC slurry oil service

Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is an important upgrading process for converting heavy oil feedstock into products such as gasoline, light fuel oils, and olefin-rich gases at oil refineries. In this process, a hot catalyst from the regenerator flows in a fluidized state through the riser tube into the reactor. Do you want to enhance the wear protection of the critical flow control devices in the FCC unit? Read on and join my presentation in Valve World.

Experience matters in valve sizing and selection

All too often, valve sizing and selection tools are based on standard equations and rules of thumb shaped by performance data collected under laboratory conditions. While laboratory data may be considered extremely accurate, they are no substitute for real-world data collected under actual operating conditions over an extended period of time.

Cut turnaround costs by focusing maintenance where needed

One of the biggest challenges is determining what devices will be adjusted, repaired or upgraded, and ensuring that key devices are not ignored.

Reinventing reliability through Additive Manufacturing

Reinventing reliability is a critical mission that impacts technology and product development at Neles (now Valmet Flow Control business line). In this article, Jukka Borgman, Director of Technology Development, talks about Additive Manufacturing – more commonly known as 3D printing. He is very much involved to push technology development of AM within the company.
