We have a long track record of working with the pulp and paper industry. There, our products are used for solutions that convert biomass into recyclable products such as pulp, paper, cardboard and tissue.
In the shipping and shipbuilding industry, our products are used as cargo valves to ensure that chemicals and fuel do not spill into the water or onto the ground when loading and
unloading the vessels.
Somas’ valves are also used in exhaust systems to ensure that exhaust gases can be returned to the engine, where energy can be extracted once more.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation
A small proportion of exhaust gases is recirculated back into the engine’s air/fuel inlet, which results in a reduction in the exhaust gas’s NOx content. Somas’ exhaust gas valves are used for shutting off and regulating this recirculation flow. The tightness of an on/off valve is of the utmost importance here.
