Our partnerships offer you the decisive advantage
Our strategic network includes a wide variety of partnerships. These include service, heat transfer, separation and mixing, as well as R&D activities related to the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass.
We are constantly striving to expand our network and thus increase your customer benefit.
Alfa Laval SE: DIABON® plate heat exchanger
SGL Carbon and Alfa Laval, a world leader within the key technology areas of heat transfer, separation and fluid handling, have developed a family of plate heat exchanger made of DIABON especially for the use in corrosive applications.
The following DIABON plate heat exchangers from SGL Carbon and Alfa Laval are offered worldwide:
| Product name | Exchange area in m2 | Max. number of plates |
|---|---|---|
| P90 (Typ S15N) | up to 60 | 96 |
| P40 (Typ S10) | up to 52 | 130 |
| P25 (Typ M10G) | up to 40 | 160 |
| P05 (Typ S1) | up to 4 | 80 |
SULZER Chemtech: Mellacarbon™ column internals made of SIGRABOND® Chemical
SGL Carbon and SULZER Chemtech, a market leader for separation and mixing technology, are joining forces.
Beside the already marketed structured packing made of carbon fiber-reinforced carbon (CFRC) a new fiber based internals family was developed to allow a well controlled liquid management in packed towers within challenging corrosive atmosphere.
The results are economic designs of CFRC column internals with significant size and weight reduction for even large diameters compared to any other alternative.
The current portfolio of CFRC column internals includes:
- Liquid distributors
- Collectors
- Structured packing
- Support grids and structures
- Retainers
- Feed tubes
GEA Group AG: DIABON in vacuum systems
SGL Carbon and GEA, one of the largest suppliers of process technology for the food industry and a wide range of other industries, have developed a new ejector body made of DIABON mainly to replace the former ceramic ejectors without modifications on existing installations.
The main advantages of the new DIABON ejector body are:
- Very accurate dimensions vs. porcelain
- Higher mechanical resistance
- Energy savings of more than 30%
- Reduced manufacturing costs
- Faster lead times (pre-machined parts available from stock)
The integration of further components as well as equipment (e.g. block heat exchanger) into the vacuum systems are also part of the cooperation.
KLAREN International: Self-cleaning technology for DIABON® tube heat exchangers
SGL Carbon and KLAREN International, a technology company from the Netherlands providing self-cleaning heat exchangers for operation up to zero fouling, launched a cooperation for the purpose of matching KLAREN International self-cleaning technology with the DIABON® tube heat exchanger of SGL Carbon.
Core target is to demonstrate the effectiveness of KLAREN‘s self-cleaning technology under highly corrosive conditions, e.g. to demonstrate that the formation of fouling layers will be effectively inhibited in DIABON® heat exchanger tubes while simultaneously the integrity of the DIABON® tube surfaces are maintained.
Upon verification of the anticipated results in the Dutch R&D Centre of KLAREN International, a prototype installation in a high corrosion environment will serve to demonstrate the technology in the field.
