New Technology for Geothermal Energy Utilization
The Eavor-Loop™ system is a groundbreaking new technology for harnessing deep geothermal energy. With its new system, Eavor Technologies Inc. offers an underground heat exchanger that operates without the use of thermal water from the subsurface. Through the self-circulating heat transfer medium in loops, energy can be drilled for independently of location. This closed loop…

New ball valve design with integrated heating jacket
Heating valves is particularly necessary for special applications. Heating jackets are used when media must be kept flowable. By maintaining a consistently low viscosity of the media, pump performance can be reduced and damage to the pipeline or valves caused by solidifying solids can be avoided. Traditionally, double jackets are welded onto the outer area…
