Cookie-cutter vessels and exchangers work—until they don’t. Unusual chemistries, tight footprints, or aggressive schedules expose the limits of catalogue solutions fast. OSVARD’s Equipment Design Services close that gap by turning process requirements into purpose-built hardware that runs safely, lasts longer, and squeezes every drop of value from raw materials.
Exact process fit. Residence time, mixing intensity, heat-transfer area, and internal geometry are sized for your kinetics and properties—not a generic average.
Safety baked in. Designs follow ASME, API, TEMA, and local rules from the first sketch, adding relief paths, quench systems, or fatigue margins where standard gear falls short.
Space and integration. Compact layouts, dual-function hybrids, or vertical stacks slip into cramped plants where standard drums simply can’t.
Lifetime economy. Optimised wall thickness, smart alloy choices, and built-in maintainability keep capex and downtime lean—millimetre by millimetre, hour by hour.
Define the duty. Thorough process simulation locks in heat loads, mass balances, and performance targets.
Draft the datasheet. Key specs—pressure, temperature, purity, fouling tendencies—become the equipment “mission briefing.”
Mechanical engineering. Thickness, nozzles, internals, and supports are calculated to code; stress, vibration, and fatigue get full scrutiny.
Material & safety decisions. Alloys, linings, seals, and relief devices are matched to corrosion, abrasion, and worst-case upsets.
Fabrication support. Detailed drawings, QA plans, and vendor vetting ensure the shop floor builds exactly what the model promised.
Pharma multi-purpose reactor: Stainless shell plus removable liner and dual-regime agitator let one vessel handle acid and alkali steps—slashing changeover time.
Viscous food evaporator: Switch from falling-film to forced-circulation layout cut fouling rates in half and doubled campaign lengths.
CO₂ storage-plus-cooler: Integrated coils inside a high-pressure vessel liquefy gas and save a whole skid of heat-exchange hardware.
Tailored performance—no more, no less
Lower lifetime cost through precise thickness and alloy choices
Faster regulatory approval with ready-made calculation dossiers
Innovation options—high-efficiency trays, structured packing, hybrid reactors—baked in from day one
“Design the equipment around the chemistry, and the plant around the equipment—everything else falls into line.”
