New Jersey, 19-03-2025 As refineries seek more efficient and cost-effective solutions for vacuum distillation, Croll Reynolds is emerging as the go-to choice for advanced vacuum system technology. With decades of expertise, the company provides high-performance steam ejector vacuum systems that enhance hydrocarbon recovery, reduce energy costs, and improve overall refinery efficiency.

Revolutionizing Vacuum Distillation Efficiency:

Vacuum distillation is a critical process in refining, allowing for the separation of light hydrocarbons from crude oil under reduced pressure. Traditional methods often rely on mechanical pumps, which can be costly and require frequent maintenance. Croll Reynolds’ steam ejector vacuum systems provide a low-cost, highly reliable alternative that improves refinery output while minimizing operational downtime.

By utilizing 2 to 4 stages of steam ejectors or a hybrid system combining steam ejectors and liquid ring vacuum pumps, refineries can achieve absolute pressures of 8 to 40 mmHg—optimizing product recovery while maintaining temperature control to prevent thermal degradation.

Key Benefits Driving the Industry Shift:

Refineries switching to Croll Reynolds’ vacuum systems are seeing significant advantages, including:
1. Lower operating costs compared to mechanical pumps.
2. Higher product recovery while maintaining temperature constraints.
3. Minimal maintenance due to no moving parts in ejectors.
4. Reliable, long-lasting performance for continuous refinery operations.
5. Flexible system designs that can be easily upgraded or retrofitted.

These benefits make Croll Reynolds the preferred choice for refineries looking to maximize efficiency while keeping operational costs low.

Meeting the Demands of Modern Refineries:

As the oil refining industry evolves, the demand for high-efficiency, low-maintenance vacuum systems continues to grow. Croll Reynolds’ ability to deliver custom-engineered solutions ensures that each refinery gets the most effective vacuum system for its specific requirements—whether it's low-medium back pressure (≤ 0.3 bar G) systems utilizing three-stage ejectors or high back pressure systems (up to 1.0 bar G) benefiting from hybrid ejector and liquid ring pump designs.
