Ipsen Kleve – GreenFlow – up to 80% process gas reduction

Discover the Ipsen GreenFlow system, a revolutionary solution for significantly reducing your process gas consumption and optimizing your furnace processes. This innovative system enables a reduction of up to 80%* in the amount of gas used, which not only significantly reduces your operating costs but also makes a sustainable contribution to environmental protection.

After loading your plant, the furnace atmosphere is precisely measured. As soon as the optimum conditions are reached, the adaptive gas reduction is automatically activated. The smart system reacts dynamically to changes, such as door movements or deterioration of the furnace atmosphere, and adjusts the amount of gas in real time. This ensures that you always have an ideal protective gas atmosphere in the furnace. As a result, the furnace atmosphere is of even better quality than with conventional gas flow control, despite the reduced gas flow.

Another advantage of the Ipsen GreenFlow system is the combination of lower cold carrier gas consumption and reduced heating energy, as well as better temperature uniformity in the furnace. The longer your process takes and the larger your furnace is, the greater the savings will be.

To take full advantage of the reduced fumigation, you will need a few specific components from a technical point of view:

  • Ipsen CO, CO2, CH4 gas analyzer (2 channels): An analyzer is necessary to implement the gas reduction
  • Mass flow controller (MFC) in the mixing battery: For endogas or N2 and methanol.
  • Furnace pressure measurement

Depending on the existing equipment, retrofitting may be necessary to exploit the full potential of the system. Our Energy team will be pleased to advise you on retrofitting solutions. Benefit from the numerous advantages of the Ipsen GreenFlow system! Significantly reduce your operating costs and actively contribute to environmental protection – choose efficiency and sustainability for your production! Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of this revolution!

*In carburizing processes, the typical savings are around 80%.
