| Maintenance downtime of a high temperature installation is disastrous for production costs. Often,
limited refractory lifetime is the most important reason for conducting a maintenance campaign. |
| In many cases, the necessity for downtimes can be considerably reduced by optimizing the high
temperature processes with respect to the optimal operating window of the refractory linings in order to extend
their lifetime. In addition, increased installation performance and reduced maintenance can be obtained by selecting
the best refractory material for the specific process conditions (i.e., temperature, temperature changes, atmosphere,
mechanical load, etc.) or by adjusting the construction of the installation. |
