Pumps and Metering Packages in the Petrochemical Industry
Catalytic processes with LEWA pumps
Petrochemicals are foundational in creating products such as plastics, pharmaceuticals, colorants, and detergents. Critical to these manufacturing processes are various cracking operations like steam cracking and hydrocracking, which transform long-chained hydrocarbons, such as naphtha, into shorter-chained ones.
LEWA enhances these operations with robust pumps and metering packages designed for precise additive metering and efficient handling of washing and sour water. Our customized solutions support the metering and conveyance of essential chemicals across production plants. We specialize in designing and integrating pumps and systems tailored to your specific needs, ensuring optimal support for critical petrochemical processes, including hydrocracking.
