With over 20 years of experience in acid handling, ASTEC has a lot to offer and share to the benefit of
its clients.
The available operation data has been carefully gathered and evaluated so that our know-how for each
specific steel plant can be used to adapt the basic plant design to the particular characteristics of
different applications.
Depending on the incoming characteristics of the pickling liquor and the available utilities, different
factors can influence regeneration step, which ultimately have an impact on the residual chlorine content
of the oxide and acid recovery in % .
ASTEC uses this data base to design its Acid Regeneration Plants specifically to achieve the best
regenerated acid quality and the highly valuable ferrum oxide.
