EKATO designs and supplies hydrogenation plants for a wide range of industrial applications and industries:
• Flexible multi-product plants for the hydrogenation of pharmaceutical raw materials (API)
• Flexible multi-product plants for the hydrogenation of fine and specialty chemicals
• Plants for the hydrogenation of sugars to sugar alcohols
• Plants for the hydrogenation of fats, fatty acids and oils
• Plants for the continuous hydrogenation of basic chemicals
Modular hydrogenation plants from EKATO offer several advantages over conventional plants that are assembled on site.
The main advantages of our modular plant technology are:
• One contact for everything: EKATO
• Shorter project lead times
• Lower total investment costs
• Very short interruption of the running production production, especially in case of plant extensions/conversions
• Precise and clean assembly of the plant in the modern large-capacity assembly halls at EKATO
• Safety test, function test and pre-commissioning commissioning including parameterization and configuration of the control system before delivery plant
A typical EKATO hydrogenation reactor module consists of:
• Steel structure of the hydrogenation reactor
• Piping and fittings
• Instrumentation
• Wiring and terminal boxes
• Insulation
• Control system (outside the skid)
EKATO Skid-mounted Hydrogenation Plants we ensure you a rapid market launch of your new chemical products, maximum efficiency and the greatest possible flexibility in production
The plant modules are generally assembled in EKATO’s own purpose-built assembly halls in Schopfheim or by selected certified subcontractors.
