waste oil filtration Waste disposal has been a problem for years, becoming more acute in the recent time. The origin of waste changed from fabric and food waste to industrial waste, with the amount of waste increasing with the growth of industry. Incorrect handling of used petroleum oils is a serious hazard to the environment and human health.Read More
New Trends in the Industry – Equipment for Filtration and Degassing of OilFiltration – is a process of removing particles of mechanical impurities and resinous compounds by passing oil through mesh or porous filters. There are a great number of different filtering materials: plastic and metal mesh, felt, fabric, paper, composite materials and ceramics. In practice, used transformer oils frequently contain impurities that are not retained byRead More
GlobeCore Equipment Successfully Used in Alternative Energy in Canada The alternative energy industry is relatively young and growing rapidly. The use of solar, wind and sea power allows countries with insufficient resources to reduce energy dependency. Moreover, alternative sources are “green”, unlike traditional power (oil, coal and natural gas). Alternative energy does not generate emission of harmful substances into the atmosphere and has aRead More
Equation of Efficiency of Oil Filtration EquipmentCooling device is designed to dissipate heat, generated in transformer during its work, into the environment. Without it, the long-term operation of transformer is impossible, since paper insulation is subject to wear (aging) at unacceptable rises of temperature. Low-voltage transformers (I and II dimensions) use smooth tanks or tanks with corrugated walls serving as radiatorRead More
