Refractory concrete, also known as refractory concrete, is widely used in various industries where structures or equipment must withstand high temperatures. The ability of refractory concrete to withstand extreme thermal conditions makes it indispensable for certain applications. Here are some examples:
Steel and Metallurgy Industry: Refractory concrete is commonly used in the manufacture of industrial furnaces, maintenance equipment, transfer and blast furnaces for steel production. It is used to line specific areas, providing a heat-resistant barrier that allows furnaces to reach and maintain high temperatures without damage.
Glass industry: As in metallurgy, furnaces for glass manufacturing also need to withstand high temperatures. Here, refractory concrete is used to coat and protect critical areas of the equipment.
Power Industry: In thermal and nuclear power plants, refractory concrete is used in various parts of the facility, especially those that are subject to high temperatures or corrosive conditions.
Chemical Industry: Many chemical processes require high temperatures, and refractory concrete is used to build and maintain reactors and other equipment used in these processes.
Cement Industry: Most of the equipment involved in cement production is lined with refractory concrete to protect it from the intense heat generated during the process.
The refractory concrete pumping process, which we call Pumpcrete, is used to transport the concrete from mixing to where it is needed, allowing it to be placed in areas that are difficult to access or in large volumes. Where a heat-resistant lining is required, the refractory concrete is pumped into place and then allowed to cure before the structure is subjected to high temperature conditions.
