Downstream processing applications face significant challenges, and the selected partners must possess rich experience.
IPT's pumps and sealing products play a crucial role in petrochemical plants around the world, ensuring safe and efficient operation of critical processes while providing flexibility needed to meet growing demand.
Under the background of sustained growth in global consumption of polymers, plastics, and derivative chemicals, the demand for petrochemical products continues to increase globally.
The demand for products produced from ethylene and propylene (i.e. polyethylene and polypropylene) in consumer applications such as packaging, automotive, buildings and construction will continue to grow.
As a professional supplier of industrial flow control solutions, IPT provides safe, economical, and high-performance products and services to customers worldwide. Whether used for splitting decomposition of olefin, polymer production, or aromatic compound production, our efficient pumps, seals, and energy recovery devices can provide outstanding performance for petrochemical plants worldwide.
Experience and innovation
Petrochemical facilities rely on us for our unmatched materials and application expertise, deep understanding of detailed petrochemical systems, and extensive product and service offerings derived from many years of successful practice.
You’ll find IPT equipment in most of the world’s olefin crackers, polymer units and aromatics facilities. We have been a leader in the global petrochemical industry and have partnered with some of the world’s largest petrochemical industry customers, EPCs, contractors, developers and end users. These partnerships are responsible for advanced plants that feature sealless pumps, remote monitoring, predictive analytics, safe operations and other innovative technologies.
Ethylene crackers
IPT products enable petrochemical facilities to meet stringent energy consumption, flow and temperature control, compression and separation requirements — critical factors in the effective operation of gas and steam olefins crackers.
With multiple units installed globally, the horizontal, multistage, double-case BB5 pump is a high-pressure, multistage barrel pump with a proven track record in ethylene crackers and other chemical plants. It features optimized hydraulics and advanced material technologies to keep operating costs low and plants running profitably.
Polymer production units
Facilities manufacturing polyethylene, polypropylene and other specialty plastics require precise slurry handling, catalysts and co-monomer delivery, flow and temperature control capabilities. Selecting equipment and materials that can operate under high flow rates and precise temperature control is critical to the success of these plants. Pitting, crevice corrosion and stress corrosion cracking are significant challenges in processing various slurry and gaseous streams.
