DuPont, Blasch form global refining partnership on sulfur recovery technology

Blasch Precision Ceramics has secured a new distributor agreement with DuPont Clean Technologies, officials announced on Monday.

As part of an ongoing effort to expand overall reach, Blasch will partner with DuPont to further increase their global footprint in the refining industry. This agreement will cover refinery-based sulfur recovery units (SRUs) in areas of Asia, Europe and Canada.  

The suite of products that will be represented will begin with HexPro ceramic boiler ferrules and VectorWall reaction furnace internals for the sulfur recovery industry, with more products to be added. 

“DuPont Clean Technologies is now taking a broader look at value-added refinery technologies beyond our current portfolio,” said Chris Winkler, leader of the refining technologies business at DuPont Clean Technologies. “Partnering with Blasch Precision Ceramics allows us to quickly enhance our product offering for our global customer base.”

Jeff Bolebruch, senior market manager at Blasch, sees the collaboration with DuPont Clean Technologies as a win-win.

“This partnership offers Blasch broad-based, highly technical access to a large percentage of the world sulfur recovery market that has previously been beyond our grasp," Bolebruch said. "The drive by DuPont Clean Technologies to bring a suite of value added technical solutions to the refining space mirrors the business model that we follow at Blasch.”
