Engineering from the feasibility study to the process optimisation

As a specialist in thermal processing technology and chemical engineering, IBU-tec offers very comprehensive interdisciplinary consultation. IBU-tec’s competence is based on several years of experience in this field, the know-how of our qualified and motivated employees and the comprehensive technical and measuring equipment. The following tasks can be performed by IBU-tec:

Feasibility studies

  • Working out the process and plant design
  • Designing, modifying and examining an idea under technical conditions

Operability studies

  • Testing the practicability and effectiveness of a process
  • Evidence of performance, profit and the efficacy of a process
  • Preplanning for development and engineering

Basic Engineering

  • Plant design
  • Notes for project planning from the point of view of process engineering (e.g. process sequences, materials requirements, measuring and automation technology, environmental protection)
  • Drawing up balances of material- and energy flow.
  • Layout of devices, plant components (rotary kilns, preheaters, calcinators, bypass, coolers, dryers)

Process optimisation

  • System analysis of existing plants to provide evidence of reserve capacities
  • Suggestions for saving energy and raw materials
  • Enhancing the throughput of existing plants
  • Quality assurance
  • Measures to safeguard a stable trouble-free operation

Observation during commissioning

  • Collaboration at the commissioning
  • Checking the performance of the plant and the warranty
  • Training the operating staff
  • Preparing the operating plants

Technological measurements

  • Drawing up the materials and energy balances of plants and their components (Temperatures of gas, material and the walls, volumetric flows, quantities of dust)
  • Determining the filtration efficiency (Determining the concentration of dust before and after the separator) and the quantity of air infiltration
  • Checking for corrosion (Measurement of acid dew point, taking a specimen and analysis)
  • Measurement of gaseous concentrations (e.g. O2, CO2, NO, NO2, SO2, Cl, F) and heavy metals (e.g. Hg) in the exhaust gases and inside the plant
  • Checking the calibration of the operational measurement techniques
  • Process gas analysis
  • Presenting the flow of materials

Design and structure of the measuring systems

  • Measurement of vibrations and pressures with high resolution
  • Measurement of machine parameters such as torque, pressure, clearance
  • Programming the measuring and evaluation software.
