Special Pressure Vessel for the Production of Colour Pigments

Customer: Chemical Industry
Location: Czech Republic
Goal: The objective of the project was to design and deliver a new pressure vessel that would fully replace the existing equipment, ensure the required operating parameters, and comply with current legislative requirements for pressure equipment.

Project Background

A company operating in the field of colour pigment production required the replacement of technological equipment used in the manufacturing process of pigment suspensions. After many years of operation, the existing pressure vessel no longer met the requirements for continued safe and reliable operation.

The project focused on delivering a new pressure vessel capable of maintaining the required process conditions while ensuring compliance with applicable pressure equipment regulations.

Supplied Technological Solution

ENVITES provided complete manufacturing, pressure testing and certification of a special pressure vessel designed for the processing of colour suspensions in the pigment production process.

The vessel was designed as pressure equipment equipped with an integrated agitator to ensure proper homogenization of the suspension and maintain the required process conditions during production. The vessel was manufactured from carbon steel with a surface treatment suitable for the customer’s operating environment.

The scope of supply included the manufacturing of the pressure vessel, production and installation of a special agitator, non-destructive testing of welds, pressure testing, certification and complete technical documentation.

Technical Parameters

Vessel volume: 10,000 l

Test pressure: 6 bar

Maximum operating pressure: 4 bar

Operating temperature: +2 to +90 °C

Material: Carbon steel

Mixing system: Integrated agitator

Project Outcome

The supplied pressure vessel fully replaced the original technological equipment and enabled uninterrupted production process without the need for significant modifications.

The equipment successfully passed all required manufacturing inspections and pressure tests and was certified in accordance with applicable regulations. The customer obtained a modern pressure vessel meeting current requirements for operational safety, reliability, and long service life.

This project represents another example of ENVITES supplying custom-designed pressure equipment for demanding chemical industry applications, where high standards for manufacturing quality, documentation and certification are essential.
