Visit Flowserve at ACHEMA 2024
Our team is looking forward to meeting you at ACHEMA and invites you to attend presentations by three of our specialists. They plan to share insights and solutions to energy-saving challenges, how sealless pumps can improve efficiency and uptime, and real-life examples of superior flow control solutions in hydrogen operations.
Unlocking Green Savings Through Energy Assessments and Equipment Upgrades
In the journey to decarbonize, companies are investing in high-impact projects such as carbon capture, green hydrogen and electrification of traditional processes. There indeed are significant opportunities to improve energy efficiency in existing industrial processes, particularly in pumping systems. These can consume up to 60% of the energy used at a refinery or chemical plant. Tim Bastiannsen, a Flowserve hydraulics specialist in the Netherlands, will discuss a novel, data-driven, and programmatic approach that tackles the challenges of scattered energy consumption across hundreds of pumping systems and considers all aspects of energy efficiency.
Sealless First – A Paradigm Shift in Pump Selection
Shaft seals and ball bearings are the weakest link in any pumping system — accounting for nearly 80% of all pump failures. Nick Rentzelos, a Flowserve director and general manager in the United States, will explain how eliminating shaft seals and ball bearings not only makes process pumps more reliable but also safer, more efficient, more versatile, maintenance-free, and more cost effective both initially and over time.
Empowering Hydrogen Operations: Real-life Examples of Flow Control Solutions
The hydrogen market is growing at a rapid pace to support decarbonization of the world economy. Marco Giambitto, the Flowserve business development manager — energy transition, key accounts, emerging technologies in Italy, will talk about the wide range of technologies being deployed at a laboratory or pilot scale; others are being scaled up to full commercial size.
Examples include modular electrolyzers for industrial-scale blue hydrogen plants; high-pressure equipment for truck refilling stations, cryogenic valves for hydrogen liquefaction and storage, liquid hydrogen transportation pumps, and cryogenic green ammonia plants.
Why Flowserve?
Significantly reducing carbon emissions and increasing energy efficiency are among today’s most critical global priorities. Flowserve recognizes the need to accelerate energy transition initiatives quickly and cost-effectively.
As you shift toward cleaner forms of energy and to reduce your carbon emissions, Flowserve is uniquely positioned to support your initiatives today and into the future. Flowserve enables your organization to tackle climate change and address increasing energy demands through our comprehensive portfolio of innovative flow control solutions.
About ACHEMA 2024
ACHEMA is the world’s leading show for all areas of the process industry and provides an impressively varied array of technology and service offerings. More than 70,000 visitors will get a complete, cross-industry tech update and preview the next innovation cycle. Manufacturers and service providers presenting their products for chemical, pharmaceutical and biotech research, and manufacturing as well as energy and environmental services.
Shaft seals and ball bearings are the weakest link in any pumping system, accounting for nearly 80% of all process pump failures. INNOMAG pumps address this critical weakness by eliminating both.
But that’s just the beginning.
INNOMAG pumps are also the first to address the inherent weakness of sealless pumps — process lubrication — which accounts for nearly all sealless pump failures. The revolutionary thrust-balanced design of INNOMAG pumps addresses the problem by reducing its dependency on process lubrication by more than 90% compared to traditional thrust-forward designs.
In addition, INNOMAG pumps are hermetically sealed. That means no leaks when they work and, in most cases, no leaks — even if they fail. As a result, they’re not only cleaner and safer for operators and the environment but also more cost-effective, consuming 10 to 46% less energy on average than typical sealed and sealless pumps.
This unique and patented technology not only takes sealless pump reliability to a whole new level, but also makes INNOMAG the first and only sealless pump capable of handling significant solids — up to 30% concentration by volume and up to ¼ in particle size.
INNOMAG pumps come in only one material option with near-universal chemical resistance, enabling a single pump model to cover a wider range of duty points and services. This allows you to standardize your pump fleet and optimize your spare parts inventory.
The versatility and simplicity of INNOMAG pumps make it possible to ship from stock in 5 days or less with better than 98% on-time delivery.
SIHI is the leading manufacturer of liquid pumps, vacuum pumps and engineered systems used in all segments of the process industry. They are found in applications as diverse as basic and fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage processing, machinery manufacturing, general industry applications, energy generation, municipal water and heavy machinery applications.
SIHI was founded in Germany in 1920 as Siemen & Hinsch (SiHi) by Otto Siemen and Johannes Hinsch, inventors of the self-priming side channel pump for liquids and gases. This was the beginning of a history of innovation, which later included the development of multistage centrifugal pumps, liquid ring vacuum pumps, so-called “combi-pumps” (centrifugal pumps with self-priming stages), volute casing pumps, magnetic drive systems and dry-running vacuum pumps.
The brand was acquired by Flowserve in 2015. SIHI’s liquid and vacuum pumps, compressors and systems continue to enhance and strengthen Flowserve’s position as the world’s leading supplier of chemical process pumps and systems.
The most aggressive fluids and slurries on the planet. High-volume and high-pressure applications that test the limits of hydraulic and mechanical designs. That’s where you’ll find Flowserve pumps and seals performing efficiently, safely and reliably. It’s a legacy that goes back centuries, one we build upon every day by outperforming expectations — no matter how great the demands.
Founded in 1965, Valtek revolutionized traditional control valves by adding a high-pressure piston actuator to enable maximum stiffness, plus a simple, one-touch calibration positioner. The result is a superior level of process control and simple, intuitive operation, resulting in more efficient and profitable operations.
Reliability, long life, parts interchangeability, ease of maintenance and prompt delivery are hallmarks of the Valtek brand.
