Electrification is essential for the chemical industry – but how can it be achieved and what are its advantages? Let’s start with the basics: Heating.   🌡️ A variety of process media in the chemical industry need to be heated. Often, the energy needed for this is generated by burning fossil fuels (for example to generate steam). ☁️ Consequently, this comes with a large contribution to the carbon footprint of the finished product. Heat also gets lost on the way, which lowers efficiency and increases costs. 📉 Apart from the environmental factors, heating process media using steam comes with additional drawbacks: Pressure spikes can damage heat exchanger equipment and an inflexible pipe system makes process optimization challenging.   💡That’s why our Process Technology experts have developed their latest innovation: an electrical heater based on our proven plate heat exchanger design. Retaining the modularity and scalability that makes our plate heat exchangers so successful, the new heater uses electricity with an extraordinary efficiency level of more than 72%.   Have we piqued your interest?

Did you know that the use of modern technologies in the construction of the 64-meter-long road bridge on the A3 saved an impressive 60 tons of CO₂ emissions? That's the equivalent of more than 500,000 kilometers driven by an average car - or in other words, around 12.5 trips around the world. 🌍🚗 The 64 m long road bridge BW399c over the A3 highway near Nuremberg, reinforced with carbon reinforcement based on our SGL SIGRAFIL® CT50-4.0/240, was commissioned by Die Autobahn GmbH des Bundes. The carbon reinforcement was manufactured by Deutsche Basalt Stab GmbH using our SGL SIGRAFIL® fiber. The advanced construction method with carbon fiber reinforced concrete not only saved 60 tons of CO₂ compared to conventional steel construction, but also significantly reduced the weight of the bridge's roadway slab by 55% to 450 kg/m² and minimized the total steel requirement. 🌱✨ There are several other advantages: 💡 No corrosion: Thanks to the carbon reinforcements, the bridge remains durable and low maintenance.  💡 Less material: The normal asphalt layer for waterproofing is no longer required, which simplifies the construction.  💡 Prefabrication: The bridge can be prefabricated so that installation takes place overnight. This means that the road is only closed for a few hours!   🕒 We are proud to contribute to more environmentally friendly infrastructure projects with sustainable construction methods. Let's shape the future of bridge construction together! 💪🌍 Do you need information about our product portfolio or the potential applications of our products in the construction industry? Dr.-Ing. Sarah Reiser will be delighted to answer your questions! Take a look at our website https://lnkd.in/dFbq-3z to select a material that meets your needs or just contact us, we would be pleased to give technical advice. If you would like to find out more about the bridge project, we recommend the publication 'Das Bauwerk 399c - innovativ und nachhaltig' written by Tobias Mansperger from Leonhardt, Andrä und Partner! #SGLCarbon #carbonconcrete #sustainablebuilding #carbonfiber
