 WITTE
and KTT presented on July 4 at Bangna, Bangkok their gear pump
technology and its special applications. The seminar was joined by
20 participants from 10 companies.
Already in the morning during the product presentations of Mr.
Holger Kremer from Witte Pumps & Technology the seminar developed
itself in an interesting technical discussion platform. During
coffee break contacts between participants could be deepened. Before
noon and in the afternoon details of gear pump operation, its
benefits as also its restriction have been shown in several case
studies. For many industrial applications where gear pumps were used
Witte showed reasons for occurring problems, and ways using Witte
gear pump technology to find the best technical solution. The
presentation included case studies focusing on matters as choice of
material for shafts and bearings, design of bearings, proper
selection of seal type and decision for heating or cooling beyond
many more items. Seminar scripts are available on request by sending

  Since January 2006 KTT is involved in startup of
a technical yarn (TY) plant in Henan province. As specialist for
polymer process and plant operation KTT accepted a bid for on site
startup management. In charge of this function KTT takes care of
site organization (labor and material), time management, polymer
plant optimization and other matters concerning overall process
improvement. Together with the main process and equipment supplier,
Barmag/Saurer the startup phase is close to come to an end, and will
be brought to success by all the parties with a capacity test run
within short time.
KTT Hightech Co., Ltd. issued for their local customers in Thailand a Thai version of their brochure "Water Disinfection with Electrochemically Activated Water". To get it click here>
WITTE offers specialty gear pumps which are used in Thailand in Polyester process and in vegetable oil processing. The gear pumps from Witte are used in other countries in many different applications for pumping polymers and chemicals. These high quality pumps are suitable whenever high material and equipment quality and high pump accuracy is required. For more details have a look to our products page or to our download page.
Background Clean water is an important matter in human live. Nevertheless this fact, clean and sterile water is also an asset for the food processing industry and in agriculture. That's why KTT decided to work out a cooperation with the Institute of Food and Product Development at Kasetsart University. On November 10, 2005 a two year cooperation contract was signed between the parties. Main purpose of the cooperation is to evaluate and improve applications for ECA water technology in food processing. Projects will be launched by IFRPD to work on the objectives. Benefits of ECA water technology in food processing and agriculture could be:
Sterisol® the ultimate solution for production of highly active ECA water solutions At IFRPD, KU a "Sterisol® 10" laboratory plant has been installed and introduced to the department staff. The unit will be used for research work as also to run tests for KTT clients. The plant produces 10 l/h of strong ECA solutions, 5 l/h of Anolyte (ORP = 1'200 mV, pH = 2 - 3) and Catholyte (ORP = 900 mV, pH = 12 - 13). In many cases dilution of Anolyte solution in ratios of 1/200 to 1/100 is already sufficient to sterilize water. Thursday, November 24, 2005, morning: KTT Hightech Co., Ltd. introduces the Electrochemically Activated Water (ECA) Technology to members of IFRPD at Kasetsart University. In a first phase the theory based on Faraday's and Nernst's laws was introduced. Some case studies and explanation of Zimmermann ECA processes showed in detail fields of application and how the ECA technology could be implemented. Thursday, November 24, 2005, afternoon: In the afternoon practical exercises were accomplished. The staff learned how to prepare electrolyte solutions with an adequate electrolyte concentration. Depending on the water quality a salt concentration of 0.1 to 0.5 weight % is already sufficient to get the expected activation by diaphragm electrolysis. Normally, already small amounts of "Anolyte Strong" meet the ORP potential requirements to remove most of the pathogens. The participants learned how to operate the "Sterisol® 10" laboratory plant, and how to produce adequate ECA solutions. In conclusion, with the "Sterisol® 10" unit installed at IFRPD we have a unique system to introduce ECA technology to the public and to clients, and in the same time to proceed with research projects. For more information about the ECA technology have a look to our product page or to the download page. For ECA water test requests contact IFPRD:

Background Energy Efficiency training and awareness programs aimed at the industry sector are rarely comprehensive and often not supported by sufficient incentives to provide for sustainability – continuation of the commitment to energy-efficient operation after the program ends. The potential for industrial energy system optimization has remained largely unrealized. Generic barriers include: Energy usage in industry is generally viewed as a fixed rather than a manageable expense. With the advent of quality control and production management systems such as ISO 9000/14000, Total Quality Management, and Six Sigma, companies have instituted well-documented programs to contain the cost of production and reduce waste. To date, most companies have not integrated energy use and efficiency into these management systems, even though there are obvious links to operating costs and waste reduction. Further, experience has shown that most optimized systems lose their initial efficiency gains over time due to lack of integration of detailed operating instructions with quality control and production management systems. Info & Conclusion Wednesday, September 21, 2005: Representatives of Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam informed in their country papers about the countries energy situations and consumptions. Many countries provide mandatory as also voluntary standards for electrical drives and energy systems to comply with the best technology to save energy and resources, as e.g. China with its Energy Efficiency Standard. For Thailand it was shown that during the past 15 years, the ratio of energy consumption to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country, or the “energy intensity,” has increased whereas the energy intensity in developed countries has been decreasing. Considering the energy elasticity, or the ratio of energy consumption growth rate to the GDP growth rate, in the same period, it can be seen that Thailand’s energy elasticity is 1.4:1 while in developed countries such as the USA and Japan, their energy elasticity is only 0.8:1 and 0.95:1 respectively. In the case that the GDP growth rate of Thailand is at 5% per year, the national energy demand will then increase by 7% per year, accounting for a value of energy expenditures at about 2.1 trillion Baht in 2017 or in the next 15 years. Therefore it is Thailand's target to reduce the energy elasticity of the country from the current 1.4:1 to 1:1 by the year 2007. If the government can effectively implement energy conservation measures and promote efficient use of energy as targeted, that is, if the energy elasticity can be reduced to 1:1 by 2007, the national expenditures for energy of the country can be reduced by 3.1 trillion Baht during the period 2007-2017. In order to achieve the targeted energy elasticity reduction, measures have been established focusing on the two major energy intensive sectors, namely, the transportation and industrial sectors which hold a share of 37% and 36% of energy demand respectively. These two sectors combined together account for 73% of the total domestic energy demand. Established measures are or would be tax increase, industrial structure reforms, implementation of energy performance standards and promotion on energy production systems as co-generation plants. Thursday, September 22, 2005: Beside signing a paper for "International Network on Industrial Energy Efficiency" between the countries representatives, a panel discussion was held by several Industrial Equipment Manufacturers as Steam System, Pump Systems, Compressed Air Systems and Industrial Motor Systems Suppliers. The panel discussion in specific showed clearly that: It is necessary to force Process System Design instead of Process Equipment Design. In many cases companies wont pay for energy management. Therefore it is necessary to force companies and the public sector to higher energy saving systems, e.g. by promotion of banking credits, government measures, production and operating cost declaration, etc. Friday, September 23, 2005: The EEGM group visits Thai President Food Co., Ltd. in Siracha (Chonburi Province). At the factory visit it was shown that performing a proper energy management procedure and revamping and optimizing the overall steam and electricity system by combination with a co-generation (Absorption Chiller) plant brought yearly benefits in energy saving up to 2.8 Mio BHT. Conclusion: It is of utmost importance to conduct energy saving measures by implementing energy saving standards and promoting overall process optimization and process systems design.
