Silicon Carbide Applications in Industrial Power Generation Processes

             The power generation industry is extremely fast-paced and continuously changing. The varying demands each day require plant management to have optimized efficiency at each step of the process. From fuel prep, to combustion, to scrubbing; drop-in SCProbond™ Silicon Carbide liners can be used to extend outage cycles and minimize process variability. Silicon Carbide is a synthetic material that exhibits high performance characteristics including: high hardness approaching that of diamond, high strength (gains strength at temperature), and excellent chemical, thermal shock, and wear resistance. Each of our SCProbond™ liners are engineered to offer customers the maximum wear protection with a minimum number of seams. Our resolve to take on new challenges and create larger, more monolithic, drop-in liners as opposed to labor-intensive, tedious tiling solutions sets SCP apart in the ceramics industry. We understand the severe impact that unexpected down-time and shutdowns have on plant efficiency and keep this in mind when designing the custom lining configurations that will offer maximum process uptime.

At SCP, our team strives to create efficient, cost-effective, monolithic SiC solutions customized to relieve the following high wear points typically found in industrial power generation applications:
