System manufacturers, Dürr and Caloric, will collaborate in the field of incinerators for disposal of saline exhaust gases and residual liquids. The two companies confirmed this partnership in a collaboration agreement. The collaboration is initially agreed for a period of five years.
Caloric brings many years of experience with this technology, while Dürr will contribute immense market penetration and a strong presence in such target locations as Europe, Gulf Cooperation Council countries ( GCC), China, and India. Dürr has been active in India for nearly 50 years, with a local presence for over 20 years. Dürr wide array of activities in India include industrial cleaning and automation solutions and consulting. Dürr has made India an important hub for their worldwide engineering activities offering its customers international know-how and local experience.
Werner Zondler, Vice President in charge of Environmental Systems Sales at Dürr Systems, and Dr-Ing. Peter Neumann, Head of Sales at Caloric Anlagenbau said, “These synergies will allow us to offer our customers superior technology and support for the complicated, highly demanding disposal of saline exhaust gases and liquids.”
These particular types of exhaust gases and residual liquids with high or low calorific values are generally produced in the pharmaceutical, chemical and petrochemical industries. A special case is the incineration of saline exhaust gases or residual liquids, for which Dürr and Caloric now offer joint solutions. Here, salt slag is formed in the combustion chamber of an air pollution control system and must be removed. This removal is generally achieved by means of a vertical arrangement of the combustion chamber with subsequent quench. The salts are dissolved in water, and insoluble constituents are collected and removed by a suitable system. Special attention must be paid to the design of the lining in case of alkaline salts because these salts attack the lining and destroy it over time.
