Expansion of surfactant storage

Expansion of surfactant storage

The EOC Group is a global supplier of adhesives, binders, coatings, and surfactants for a wide range of applications and industries.

For their surfactant division, EOC enlisted the help of DEMA Group to expand the storage capacity for several of their top products at their Evergem site.

To achieve this, DEMA Group designed a tank storage system with a total capacity of 300 m³, divided over two storage tanks. These tanks were connected to the existing product reactors. Through a newly installed pump station, the finished products are loaded at the existing loading bays.

DEMA Group provided the following services:

  • 3D Scanning
  • Layout design
  • Civil engineering design of the containment area + building permit documentation
  • Mechanical design (process piping, pipe bridge, pump setup)
  • E&I design and instrumentation selection
  • Specifications for main equipment (tanks, pumps)
  • Detailed specifications and bill of quantities for civil works
  • Technical specifications and isometric drawings for process piping
  • Pipe bridge design
  • E&I specifications
  • Support with tendering and preparation of offer comparisons
  • Site supervision of civil works
  • Site supervision of E&I and SAT support

The client was responsible for automation and monitoring of the mechanical works.

During a final evaluation meeting with EOC’s project manager, their satisfaction was once again confirmed: “Worth repeating.”
