Vacuum ducting

A palm oil refinery operates with almost complete vacuum at 230°C. To maintain the vacuum, a leak-free system is required. Array Industries designed the vacuum channel to optimally reduce thermal stresses while maintaining vacuum.

Challenge

Keeping vacuum process conditions

Solution

A palm oil refinery operates at almost full vacuum at 230°C. To maintain the vacuum a leak free installation is mandatory. Array Industries designed the vacuum ducting to optimize reduction of thermal stresses while ensuring vacuum.
