Find yours and see which component Blasch makes for it.

The Blasch component that fits your process depends on where the current part fails and what attacks it: flue gas tunnels and checkerwalls for reformers and Claus furnaces, ferrules for waste heat boilers, lined pipe and cyclone liners for abrasive solids, crucibles and non-wetting parts for molten metal, and kiln furniture for firing. Find your process below, grouped by industry, with the engineered refractory shapes and ceramic parts used there. If your process is not listed, a Blasch engineer can design a part from its dimensions and operating conditions.
Most inquiries start with a process and a failure: a tunnel that leans, an elbow that wears through, a crucible that cracks. The list below takes you from the process to the part that solves it.
Each group links to its industry page, with results from operating plants and the questions engineers in that industry ask first.
Refractory shapes from Blasch are cast near net shape from more than 15 ceramic grades, from small nozzles to blocks of more than a ton.
The right component is rarely the one in the catalogue that looks closest, but the one designed for the way your part fails in your process.
Hydrogen and ammonia production
Refining and chemical processing
Battery materials manufacturing
Describe the part that fails, where it sits and what it is exposed to. Blasch designs custom refractory shapes from dimensions and operating conditions, and a drawing is not needed.
A refractory shape is formed and fired before it reaches the plant, so it arrives with its final properties. A castable is mixed, placed, cured and dried on site during the outage.
Yes. Ferrules protect boilers in sulfur recovery, sulfuric acid, reforming and ethylene plants, and lined elbows serve ash, coal, coke, cement and battery material lines.
Send the process, the position and how the current part fails. A Blasch engineer tells you which component fits, or designs a new one.
