GlobeCore Hydrodynamic Cavitation Technology

The idea for mixing several components is usually to make a new product with new properties and characteristics. In many cases the task is as simple as using a regular mechanical agitator with an electric drive. However, more often than not, we deal with components which mix poorly, in which case a mechanical mixer isRead More

Oil Purification in Industrial Facilities

Before we go for an in depth discussion of oil purification, let us look at the history and development of lubrication materials. It is impossible to say for certain, when a lubrication material first came into use. It probably happened about the time when humans started using tools. Ancient Egyptians used olive oil to reduceRead More

Wind Turbine Oil Flushing

Oil Change in FL2500 Wind Turbine

This summer, GlobeCore was contracted to change the oil in the gearbox of an FL2500 wind turbine by Fuhrländer Windtechnology LLC. The analysis of the Mobil XMP 320 oil samples taken from the gearbox of the 2.5 MW FL2500 wind turbine (100 meter mast height) indicated the need for urgent oil change, which was performedRead More

Oil Flushing Service

Oil Flushing is used in hydraulic and turbine system to remove any bad contaminants. It prevents you from unfortunate failures in functioning of your plants.  Therefore it gives you an opportunity to prolong its service life and reliability of operation of turbines. Oil Flushing is performed through cleaning of the system and bringing the fuelRead More

INSULATING OIL

Oil Regeneration

Transformers play an essential role in power transmission and distribution. Electricity generated by power plants cannot be supplied to residential and industrial consumers directly. Voltage is increased for long-range transmission and must be reduced before this power can be used for running industrial machinery or powering air conditioners and computers in households. Such transmission ofRead More

wastewater disinfection

Disinfection of wastewater

Disinfection is a complex process of destroying parasites that spread invasive diseases (caused by helminth parasites and arthropods). Sanitary regulations and rules set requirements for deworming/ disinfection. The word “disinfection” came from Latin words “invasio” (invasion) and “des” (from). The quality wastewater treatment is a pressing issue in most countries. The reason is a growingRead More

GlobeCore Engineers Develop a New Cable Oil Processing Unit

110-500 kV OF cables are used for the following purposes: output of power from hydro power plants to distribution facilities; power transmission in high urban density areas, over large bodies of water or areas with severe environmental pollution; power supply to energy-intensive industrial facilities; powering cities etc. Ensuring OF cable reliability requires special equipment forRead More

Urban wastewater treatment

Domestic wastewater of cities and countries is now overwhelming. The sewage treatment facilities have used to the limit all available reserves. The existing technological lines that proved themselves over the years [120, 134] do not cope with the  increased flow of wastewaters. The new sewage treatment facilities are expensive to build. It would seem aRead More

Purification of waste water from phenol and other organic contaminants

In most facilities, such water is purified by oxidizing phenol and other organic contaminants by manganese peroxide, sodium or potassium dichromate at 95-100º С. The oxidation process takes 3 to 5 hours, consuming 5 grams of oxidant per 1 gram of phenol. The purification unit with 12 reactors 25 m3 each can purify 400 to 600 m3 ofRead More
