Cost and performance analysis
- Yield: Raw material costs and consumption
- Electricity- and other energy costs
- Steam: excess of waste heat steam or shortage?
- Catalyst: Lifetime. costs, technologies,
Plant Capacity Optimisation:
- Technologies for capacity increase
- Technologies and strategies for plant simplifications at reduced capacity
- Reduction of maintenance costs
Resin plants
- Batchprocesses for manufacturing of Aminoplast resins (UF, MUF and MF) and Resoles (PF).
- Upgrades, expansions or new installations,
- Batchtime reduction and process optimisation
- Recipe improvements and simplifications
- Instrumentation and machinery upgrade of existing installations.
Factory tuning
Environmental protection and cost reduction can fit together. Modern know how, correctly applied delivers:
- Reduction of electricity costs and optimisation of heat balance
- Yield improvement
- Reduction of waste and quality claims
Process adjustment for the demand of today.
The permanent change of business environment requires adaptions in capacity and product quality but the process licensor may not exist anymore.
- Individual technical solutions for capacity increase.
- Plant simplifications and cost reductions, often in combination with capacity restructuring.
- Global experience from involvement in over 50 resin factories. Formaldehyde technologies of 19 different licenors have been learned.
