Furnace Hydraulics

In connection with furnaces in power plants, hydraulic systems are typically installed to control the nozzles that regulate the combustion process.

Oil in furnace hydraulics is exposed to very high contamination owing to the harsh environment and high ambient temperatures. Heat causes oil degradation that leads to reduced lubricity of the oil and reduced lifetime of equipment. Dust causes particle contamination that reduces the lifetime of equipment if not effectively removed.

A is the effective way to remove particle contamination and oil degradation products in one process, and they are used in power plants around the world to effectively maintain clean oil and thus increasing the lifetime of the oil in furnace hydraulics.
