Experience responsibility

For more than twenty years, the name VTU has stood for progress and know-how in process and plant engineering. Our strength lies in the attention to and imple-mentation of individual process and customer requirements. Our knowledge about the appli-cability of a process, the adaptation to specific tasks and customer standards and the deve-lopment of a clear objective together with you, provide for ideal results. We manufacture special equipment that supports your production proces-ses or makes them feasibly in the first place.

Your problems are our inspiration to come up with solutions.

Through our large experience in various indus-tries we are intimately familiar with the requi-rements of process engineering and operation. With high-tech simulation tools and on-site pilot plants your optimum process is developed and realized professionally afterwards.

From the initial idea to turn-key implementation

Organic solvents are widely used in the industry. As a conse-quence, large amounts of liquid waste with contaminated solvents must be disposed of. VTU offers tailor-made systems that reduce both the need of fresh solvents and the amount of contaminated solvents:

Continuous or discontinuous distillation

rectification in vacuum and pressure systems

Membrane processes

Extraction processes

solvent recovery

We deliver industrial plants to cope with the challenges of changing compositions of the crude product, the occurrence of light ends and pollutants while at the same time complying with tight product specifications.Economically attractive is in particular the ultrapu-rification of solvents. This is for example necessary in pharmaceutical production processes in order to meet the highest quality standards. We have exten-sive experience with two-component and multi-component systems, e.g. with methanol, ethanol, butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, hexane, dichlorome-thane, glycerol, isopropanol, MTbE, MEK, etc.

Waste-air is produced with more or less severe pollution in many industrial production processes and thus has to be purified appro-priately. VTU develops and supplies sophisticated plant solutions for this purpose.

Pollutants are often harmful to the environment, but they can also be useful materials for production. In two steps, the pollutants are first separated from the polluted waste air and subsequently treated according to the composition required for your process. Thereby you save the environment and increase your cost effec-tiveness.We manufacture vent-gas scrubbers ranging from simple spray absorbers to complex special designs – with compelling results:

waste-air Purification

Jet or packed scrubbers

Absorption scrubbers with pure water

Oxidation scrubbers

Special-purpose scrubbers

We supply waste-air purification systems worldwide that have been specifically designed according to the respective application, e.g. chemistry, non-fer-rous metallurgy, pickling plants, galvanizing plants, foundries, hardening shops or metal working.

Production processes require resources. A very important one is water. It is used for conditioning, processing, cooling, cleaning, etc. and is polluted during these processes. based on years of research and experience, VTU has developed coolox® water tech-nology. Persistent organic pollutants in water are fully decompo-sed. In a unique process combination the most effective AOPs (Advanced Oxidation Processes) are combined. This is achieved by adapting electrochemical, photochemical and catalytic processes to the specific requirements and combining them intelligently.

our multi-stage concep for your turn-key plant

Analysis: adaptation to the given conditions and strengths of the various AOPs.

Substance catalogue: utilisation of data collected from research, laboratory tests, pilot tests, etc. to identify best practices and process combinations.

Laboratory tests: state-of-the-art lab analyses and water analytics with modern electrochemical and photochemical equipment.

Pilot testing: on-site testing with our mobile pilot plant.

wastewater Treatment

Where other technologies hit their limits, coolox® offers solutions to meet current and future water quality standards:

100% pollutant elimination

degradation of persistent/toxic pollutants

Total degradation (COd, TOC)

In-situ production of oxidants

Fully-automated operation

Low operating costs and low space requirements

Individually tailored solution

Company Portrait

The companies of the VTU Group are developers, engineers and suppliers of processing plants in the pharmaceutical, biotechnolo-gy, chemical, oil & gas, and power industries.

We focus on process engineering and on comprehensive project management from conceptual design to final commissioning. Furthermore we deliver turn-key solutions for customized process plants.

Process engineers, chemical engineers, bioengineers and plant engineers all draw on their extensive experience to plan a wide array of plants – from pharmaceutical production to hazardous waste recycling. You too can benefit from our high level of techni-cal competence and know-how in project management.

VTU Engineering‘s sustained success since it was established in 1990 rests on two pillars.

High qualified engineersIn addition to their technical know-how, VTU engineers excel through high capability for teamwork in many different project environments. Permanent training and a proven knowledge ma-nagement system are a guarantee that our customers receive best expertise.

Customer orientationThe objective of the project is the objective of our work. Achieving our customers’ goals and providing solutions of excellent quality and benefit are top priorities of our project teams. Consequently, a very high percentage of our customers cooperate with VTU since many years.
