The fraction of crude oil which cannot be distilled further is then cracked. In this process, long chain molecules are split into smaller molecules under pressure and temperature in order to generate additional short-chain hydrocarbons such as gasoline, diesel or kerosene.
The plant components and thus the sealing technology used must remain in operation, without interruption, over long periods at extremely high temperatures and pressures.
EagleBurgmann supplies perfectly designed dual mechanical seals for sealing different hydrogen sulfide (H2S) concentrations in pumped media and high-end metal expansion joints for cracking facilities. “Cool” sealing technology for these “hot” areas!
