Urea: Coping with Aggressive Media
Urea plantsAggressive media as well as high pressures and temperatures make the greatest possible demands on the components of an urea plant. Plant references from all the process providers show that Uhde HPT fully satisfies the most stringent requirements.
Proven ValvesAll the valve types necessary in an urea plant are developed and manufactured by Uhde HPT. They are free from copper-containing metals and can be manufactured with all the desired drives and material combinations. The modular structure guarantees that the valves can be adapted to various piping standards in a simple and cost-efficient way. Interchangeable seats and additional designs satisfy continuously increasing requirements. The entire controller is integrated into one control unit and installed with the valve in order to form one system without any interfaces. The manufacturing know-how for new alloys is developed further in order to avoid the well-known corrosion problems in urea operations.
Safe PipingFurthermore, Uhde HPT provides: Completely prefabricated and tested isometrics and spools A comprehensive quality system Prefabricated, complete piping sections, including pressure testing - that does not only reduce the assembly time considerably, but also improves schedule efficiency and operational safety.
Additional Components and Supply ProgramThe product range is rounded off by heat exchangers up to several hundred bar. Our supply program can replace existing components from all plant manufacturers without having to modify any surrounding components (tailor- made). It is the most cost-favourable option to maintain existing plants or upgrade them to the state of the art.

High Pressure Pumps: Heart of the Waterjet Cutting Systems
During waterjet cutting the material to be processed is cut by a high-pressure waterjet.Almost irrespective of the condition and type of the material, the waterjet cuts with maximum possible precision and flexibility.
And it is also because of its high environmental and user friendliness that the process has developed into one of the most significant industrial cutting processes.
Decades of ExperienceFor decades, Uhde HPT has gained experience with the design and manfactures of ultra-high pressure pumps up to the astonishing level of 14,000 bar for industrial applications.
This experience has been incorporated into the development of a new generation of high-pressure pumps the heart of every waterjet cutting system.

Extraction with Supercritical Fluids: The Touchstone in the Trade
Extraction is the separation of substance mixtures into their constituents, using suitable solvents, e.g. methanol, ethanol, propane or methylene chloride. However, to avoid unwanted residues of this solvent in the extracts or the raffinates, super-critical fluids today represent an excellent and envrironmentally friendly alternative.Substances dissolve many times better in supercritical fluids than would be expected on the basis of their vapour pressure. It is CO2 that has proven to be particularly suitable for the extraction of natural substances. The low critical temperature of 31 C permits gentle treatment, has an anti-bacterial effect and leads to low process costs.
Areas of Application Extraction of ingredients (spices and herbs) Refining (decaffeination or pesticide removal) Cleaning and impregnation (components, implants and textiles) Production and coating of fine particles (ranging from nano-particles to micro-particles) Drying (aerogels) Reactions (with CO
2 as the carrier gas)
Maximum StandardAll the production plants of Uhde HPT are characterised by the equally high technical standard with flexibility and efficiency, reliability and longevity. Therefore, the large number of continuously operated plants with extremely long service lives set the standard for the sector.
Scope of SupplyUhde HPT supplies tailor-made plants for all trades - in the case of pharmaceutical applications (upon request) including DQ, IQ and OQ according to cGMP and GAMP guidelines. That allows production in compliance with the rules of FDA, EMEA or comparable organisations. At present, there is a special demand for SFE plants with extractors which are operated in a cascade; they are designed for 350 - 1,000 bar and offer multistage fractionating separation.

HPP: More than Food Preservation
High-pressure processing (HPP) is an innovative method of preserving food. As an alternative to traditional processes, HPP is better at retaining the nutritional value, taste and structure of the products equally well with both solid and liquid food. One additional advantage: Since processing takes place in the final packaging, this meets maximum hygienic demands.
Variety of HPP applicationsHPP stands not only for the optimum preservation of food, but also for many other industrial applications: the treatment of products for medical and cosmetic applications, the manufacture of jams and confitures, the inactivation of enzymes and microorganisms the coagulation of proteins alteration to starch structures influence on the phase behaviour of lipids
Advantages of the HPP high-pressure treatment Increased food safety Processing in the final packaging No thermal damage to the product Optimised influence on taste and nutrient content Uniform processing of the products No addition of preservatives New possibilities of product development
Modular Production PlantsOur customer-specific production plants have a modular structure. With vessel volumes of 55 l, 160 l, 350 l and 2 x 350 l and a working pressure of 6,000 bar you will have numerous possibilities available.
In addition, we also offer small pilot installations for research purposes comprising volumes of 2 l and 4 l.

High-Pressure applications: Unimagined possiblities
High-pressure applications improve processes or, in part, permit them for the first time. For example, it was possible to significantly increase product quality in the semiconductor industry and in particle technology (microtechnology and nanotechnology). In this respect, the potential offered by high-pressure technology has not yet been exhausted by far. Uhde HPT therefore cooperates closely with the producing industries, research institutes and universities in order to test new ideas, develop methods and prove technical possibilities and economic viability in feasibility studies.
Utilisation in the Pharmaceutical SectorThe pharmaceutical industry makes increasing use of the advantages of supercritical gases such as CO2, e.g. in order to extract active ingredients from plants, produce and coat fine par-ticles or clean implants. Uhde HPT has built tailor-made plants, including DQ, IQ and OQ according to cGMP and GAMP guidelines which allow production according to the rules of FDA, EMEA or similar organisations.
