3 Advantages of Packaged Process Steam Boiler Systems
Almost every major industrial process these days requires steam systems. A variety of manufacturing processes, heating and sterilization, distillation, moisturization, humidification, and propulsion drive applications require steam. Steam generation dates back to the first simple steam engine designed by the mathematician Hero around A.D. 75. The first water-tube boiler was patented by John Blakey in 1766. In short, steam has been around for ages and we're becoming more and more capable of harnessing its power. To the uninitiated, the usage of steam systems can be intimidating at best. To others familiar with steam systems, complacency can be a danger. However, there are a series of advantages in purchasing and installing a packaged process steam boiler system.
Great for tight spaces. Packaged feedwater, water treatment and blowdown equipment are all of the necessary support components needed to supply your steam boiler in just one compact skid. This is especially helpful for retrofit applications where you can’t just blow out a wall of a mechanical room but, instead, need to fit all of your equipment into an existing space.
Reduced site installation time and costs. Utilizing a packaged system decreases the need for expert labor in the field. There has been an increasing shortage in skilled labor over the past decade. According to Associated General Contractors of America, 52% of companies are struggling to fill openings for laborers, carpenters, and equipment operators. Additionally, since no coordination of complex accessory components is needed, it saves valuable job site time.
Increased reliability. Packaged steam systems offer critical factory-tested functionality before the skid ever reaches your job site. Our manufacturing partner, CERTUSS, will completely assemble and test your package on the manufacturing floor before it ever arrives to your job site. Testing is a crucial part of a steam system install to prevent any unexpected issues post-installation.
Advantages of copper stills
The copper still is the spirit of tradition because initially stills were made of this metal. The first to use copper for production of such apparatuses were Arabs. The metal could assume any form and size, had high thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance. After a while people began to use copper for still production in Europe too. The French made a great contribution having started production of copper alembics. Copper stills are used worldwide for production of essential oils in large and small enterprises until now. The copper stills become hot quickly that contributes to uniform heating and acceleration of distillation process. As a result, useful substances and aromatic compounds are extracted from raw material at once. Consequently, you will get natural odor of herbal preparations and blooms preserved in your oil or hydrolat. One more considerable advantage of copper is its antibacterial properties. That is why hydrolats and essential oils produced with copper equipment will have a long shelf life without addition of preservatives. It is also important to note that the copper stills are hardwearing and have long useful life. They are easy repaired with the use of food tableware alloys. It is possible to dismantle the still easily in hot state as well as in cold state due to the clamp, and it is unnecessary to wait when it cools. That type of connection also provides the leak-proofness of the apparatus in the process of distillation. As a result, vapor doesn’t outflow on joints. It is issue of safety and cost effectiveness Distilling equipment made of copper is beautiful not only when it is new and polished.Over time the still gets natural coating i.e. patina. It creates some charm of refinement. Therefore, it doesn’t matter when you acquired the copper apparatus. It will be always beautiful and refined addition of you interior.
