Major Global Project
5/9/2017
Braskem Idesa is a 75-25 joint venture between Brazil’s Braskem, the largest producer of thermoplastic resins in the Americas, and Grupo Idesa, a traditional petrochemical company in Mexico. As one of the project’s top suppliers of skills, technology and equipment, Siemens itself marshaled resources and employees from 11 different countries to collaborate on a truly multinational and multicultural level with Braskem Idesa and its global partners.

PerforMedia™ Oil Removal Media
4/7/2017
PerforMedia™ oil removal media replaces walnut shells in media filtration systems. Manufactured from materials not subject to agricultural limitations, the media is able to handle five times the amount of oil before requiring backwash; is able to maintain feed concentrations of greater than 500 mg/L while producing effluent well under 10 ppm; and can be used on a wide range of oil API and elevated temperatures.

A Lower-Cost Approach To Treating Low-Volume Refinery Spent Caustic Streams
1/26/2017
Electro-oxidation, also called electrochemical advanced oxidation, uses electricity to generate hydroxyl radicals to perform oxidation in wastewater treatment. A new commercially available electro-oxidation process—Zimpro® Electro-oxidation (ZEO)—is especially effective for treating the highly problematic spent caustic streams produced by sweetening operations in petroleum refineries and ethylene plants, particularly at volumes below the economically feasible threshold for existing established treatment technologies.

Spinsep™ Vertical Flotation System
3/2/2016
The Spinsep vertical flotation system incorporates several unique methods for removing oil from produced and wastewater streams before they are discharged or injected. Improved technology and a vertical vessel design reduce the footprint required for this innovative flotation system. The Spinsep flotation system can be designed as an ASME code or a non-code vessel.

Folded Flow® Dissolved Air Flotation Separator
3/2/2016
The Folded Flow® DAF system’s simple and innovative design “folds” the flow by removing effluent from the same end of the tank as the influent is introduced, resulting in a higher hydraulic loading rate. In the Folded Flow® design, as the density current travels laterally, clean water, being heavier, peels away from the bottom of the density current and flows downward.
