Flowrox delivered 148 valves to a Polish fertilizer producer for their power plant, which has been an ongoing development project since 2014.
Flowrox made testing in titanium dioxide plant during 2015 with three pinch valves, as these valves replaced existing S+S membrane valves in sulphuric acid – titanium dioxide application. The results were very good.
Another testing was started late 2015 in the power plant by supplying PVE50A6 to a fly ash pumping line, replacing an existing gate valve which had to be changed every 3 months due to leakage. In both of the tests the valves succeeded with excellent results and convinced the customer about pinch valve performance.
The customer was convinced and placed an order for a total of 148 valves. The order consists of both manual and control valves. The final shipments will take place at the beginning of 2017. The valves were delivered straight to the installation, and the plant start-up is scheduled to take place in Q4/2017.
The end customer Zakłady Chemiczne “Police” S.A. manufactures compound mineral fertilizers and urea.
