The urea production industry faces significant challenges due to the highly corrosive nature of the process environment, particularly in the high-pressure section. Therefore, Alleima has expanded its advanced materials portfolio for urea with SAF™ 2906, a super duplex stainless steel designed to withstand the most corrosive environments.
Alleima, a global manufacturer of high value-added products in advanced stainless steels and special alloys as well as solutions for industrial heating, offers products for a variety of industries and applications.
SAF™ 2906 has been engineered to meet the stringent demands of the urea industry, requiring exceptional durability and reliability. Originally developed for the urea synthesis process, the grade can withstand extremely high pressures and temperatures. Its superior corrosion resistance against low-oxygen carbamate solutions ensures enhanced plant safety and productivity by preventing corrosion-related issues. Equipment failure resulting from corrosion can lead to costly downtime and maintenance. Selecting the most suitable material for the purpose is crucial for ensuring the longevity and efficiency of urea production plants.
