inge's "T-Rack" with "dizzer" modules in Dalian refinery phase 2.The "dizzer" ultrafiltration modules produced by inge have been successfully employed in the Dalian refinery since 2005, providing pretreatment for reverse osmosis. This year, the capacity of the plant was increased to a total of 36,500 cubic meters a day. This time the refinery chose to deploy the "T-Rack" technology from inge watertechnologies. This rack design has been optimized to provide radical improvements over conventional systems in regard to both the technical and economic aspects of module installation. The tried-and-tested dizzer modules are tightly packed together in the T-Rack and are already equipped with pipes, meaning that additional piping is no longer required. In addition, a T-Rack has a footprint that is 50 percent smaller than that of a conventional rack, with a conventional system requiring almost 70 percent more space overall than a T-Rack set-up. Thanks to these features, it is possible to cut the total capital costs of the ultrafiltration system by five percent or more depending on the scale of the system being installed. And the minimal space requirements are an especially crucial factor when it comes to modernizing existing facilities.
The proven resilience of the membrane and the efficiency of the T-Rack have undoubtedly been the trump cards that have enabled inge watertechnologies to acquire projects in China. In addition to Dalian, a further prestigious reference project is the treatment of wastewater at Beijing Capital Airport to enable it to be re-used as "grey water." This plant was put into operation on schedule prior to the start of the 2007 Olympic Games in Peking. In 2008, Hongyanhe Nuclear Power Plant -- one of the most modern new-generation nuclear power stations -- equipped its water treatment facilities for the boiler feed with inge ultrafiltration technology. And 2009 has already seen inge receive a number of orders, including a project to supply its products to another chemical plant in Tongji.
