EDC/VCM

Maximizing process output and efficiency

As you work to meet demand for your Ethylene Dichloride (EDC) and Vinyl Chloride Monomer (VCM) products, it's vital to maintain full production levels and to get maximum return on your investments in equipment and materials. GE Water & Process Technologies can help on both counts.

GE can recommend tailored products and treatment services to optimize the operation and improve the reliability of your critical equipment, including:

EDC columns and vaporizers
Water quench and wash columns
Drying columns
Light ends and heavy ends columns
HCl recovery and VCM product columns
Reboilers and furnace convection sections

GE treatments control fouling, corrosion, and foaming. Our dispersant antifoulants prevent fouling caused by sludge, tar, polymers and particulate matter without contaminating finished product.

GE can help on the utilities side, too, with field-proven treatments for condenser cooling water, and reverse osmosis membrane systems to purify boiler feedwater.
