Energetab, the largest exhibition of modern energy equipment and technologies in Poland was held in Bielsko-Biala on 11-13 September 2018. This year’s exhibition included 712 companies over more than 35 000 m2 of exhibition floor. Among other exhibitors, GlobeCore presented two of its units: the CMM-0.6 and the UVR-L (laboratory). The СММ-0.6 is a compactRead More
The new issue of the Cement Americas Magazine came out in September 2018. The magazine published an article by Frank May, GlobeCore service engineer, titles The Promising Application of Vortex Layer Devices with Ferromagnetic Elements for Cement Improvement. The article discusses one of the main reasons for cement deterioration which increases cement consumption and includesRead More
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
In the middle of August 2018, yet another product was commissioned: a CMM-4 unit, which was tested at one of the local hydropower plants. The main purpose of this equipment is purification of transformer oil. The unit removes solid particles, water and gas from the insulation fluid. Besides, the CMM-4 can heat electrical equipment withRead More
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
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 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
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
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
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
Produced water from oil and gas exploration and production. Man made bore holes cause many billions of cubic meters of water pouring out from the depths of the Earth and poison its surface and all living creatures in waterways. These include co-produced water in oil and gas production fields. The content of oil and gasRead More
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
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
The nature of the vortex layer used for treatment of waste water containing hexavalent chrome and other heavy metals allows to radically reduce reagent consumption, achieves a more complete purification and makes the process continuous. Ferromagnetic elements in the active zone of the AVS device, in the electromagnetic field, intensively mix the reagents entering theRead More
A pressing problem of mining and ore industry is the removal of arsenic from waste water by precipitating it using iron hydroxide or reduction by Na2S, K2S, FeS2. The sedimentation process occurs when a ferrous salt, such as FeCl3, forms a soft amorphous sediment Fe(OH)3 in alkaline environment, which has larger active area. As theRead More
The most toxic waste waters are those containing both simple cyanides (with CN—ions) and complex [Cu(CN2)—], [Cu(CN3)-2], [Zn(CN4)-2] etc. Total concentration of simple and complex cyanides varies from 10-15 to 150-300 mg/liter. The most widespread method today is reagent method of oxidation by calcium hypochlorite Ca(OCl)2, hypochlorite lime CaOCl2 or gaseous chlorine. Most of the cyanide-containing waterRead More
Research performed in the area of decontamination and fluor removal from waste water using AVS shows (table 5) that these devices are more efficient compared to the existing equipment. Fluor removal and transformation of phosphates into water-insoluble compounds occurs in one stage. The content of fluor in purified waste water in optimal conditions (pH =Read More
Wastewater containing petroleum products are among the most difficult to neutralize.. Especially difficult for processing are wastewaters containing, in addition to petroleum products, metal shavings, sand, rags and other inclusions, both solid and liquid. Therefore, wastewater is very difficult to classify. In some cases, they are divided into types: “flammable” or “non flammable”. For example,Read More
The conditions created in the processing area of the AVS allow to carry out practically any technological processes. The plants are particularly effective in industries that require rapid and uniform mixing (especially if the content of components is calculated in units or percentages) where it is necessary to treat suspensions (heterogeneous systems) regardless of theirRead More
The May-June 2018 number of Cemento Hormigón Magazine of Spain features an article by GlobeCore electrical engineer José Mora, titled “Re-trituración y mejora del cemento portland en los sistemas de optención de la capa vórtex de particulas ferromagnéticas”. The article describes GlobeCore experience in application of the vortex layer devices with ferromagnetic elements in theRead More
