NESS light-ends removal systems

Cost-efficient and permanent increase of the flashpoint

Cost-efficient and permanent increase of the flashpoint

Light-ends are continuously generated in thermal oil systems depending on the operating temperature. Basically: The higher the operating temperature, the more light-ends are formed. If the light-ends content increases, the flashpoint of the thermal oil decreases. The lifetime of the thermal oil thereby decreases rapidly over time.

Light-ends evaporate and ignite even at low temperatures and may endanger the reliability.

Your advantages at a glance

  • Reduction in operating costs

    Due to the constant removal of the light-ends, you can use your thermal oil for a longer time, without system downtime by boiling out the light-ends and thus saving money and time

  • Your maintenance advantage

    Due to permanently good thermal oil values, maintenance routines can be planned and calculated better

  • Quick amortization

    Cost-effective solution that pays off in a few years for you and your production processes

  • Increased safety

    The flash point of the thermal oil is kept permanently high, making your system safer and more efficient

The flash point is safety relevant

#1  Your system works more effectively and calculable with a permanently high flash point

#2  A continuous, high flash point means less downtime

For optimal light-ends removal your system is in our focus

The right dimensioning for your system

Most of the light-ends are generated in the hot supply line, in the heater, and to a lesser extent in the cooler return line. For typical thermal oil heating systems with mineral oil and a supply line temperature of 280 °C, the decomposition rate is 3.5% per year. For 30,000 l of thermal oil this amounts to 1,000 l per year! The light-ends removal system can be integrated modularly and in a size adapted to your system up to 250,000 liters volume.

The NESS light-ends removal systems remove light-ends from thermal oil. As a result, the flash point is constantly maintained on a high level. The NESS light-ends removal systems improve plant safety and reduce cavitation in pumps.
