GA-EMS supporting carbon black plants

GA-EMS is scheduled to deliver its first Single-Module Gulftronic system in November 2018.

“Refineries around the world have been using our larger, multi-module Gulftronic systems to process higher value, higher quality slurry oil products for over 38 years,” stated Scott Forney, President of GA-EMS. “The Single-Module and Dual-Module Gulftronic systems open a new market for the Gulftronic product line, allowing plants and facilities with low throughput slurry oil requirements to realise the same benefits larger refineries have been experiencing for years, including reduced operation and maintenance costs, maximised yields, and improved profit potential.”

The Single-Module and Dual-Module Gulftronic systems are designed for specialty processing applications such as carbon black. The systems allow plants to purchase lower cost feedstocks from refineries and further clarify slurry oil on-site to meet specific requirements for various carbon black products. As worldwide demand for products such as carbon black continues to grow, plants can effectively utilise Gulftronic systems to reduce costs and significantly enhance quality and production controls.

Through a unique electrostatic process, Gulftronic separators capture and remove solids and catalyst fines from the process stream to provide higher-value oil products with a clarity below 100 ppm, and often well below 50 ppm. The separators are also impervious to fouling or blockage, resulting in less downstream contamination and significantly reduced maintenance requirements.
