Current Projects & Activities

• One large SCHEIBEL® Column has been supplied by KMPS to a Texas plant to replace four (4) centrifugal extractors. This column will provide significantly reduced maintenance costs as well as increased capacity. The column has been installed and is operating successfully.
   

• KMPS supplied a KARR® Column to a Middle East country for recovery of an expensive metal catalyst. This is the third column that has been supplied for this application. The other two are in the United States.
   

• KMPS supplied and started up two large diameter KARR^® Reciprocating Plate extraction columns in Korea, which are operating above expectations. These glass lined columns are performing a combination of a hydrolysis reaction and inorganic acid extraction using water as the solvent.

• SCHEIBEL^® extraction column installed and successfully started up in a Midwest chemical plant. Column is used to recover an organic product from an aqueous feed stream using an aromatic solvent.

• KMPS delivered and installed two large diameter KARR^® extraction columns in separate chemical plants in mainland China. One column is for extraction of Carboxylic Acid from an aqueous feed stream, the other for extraction of contaminants from an effluent caustic stream.
