BUTTING has already built a large number of SCR catalytic converters for MAN Energy Solutions. However, a new milestone has been achieved with the production of a massive Cluster 5 Double Layer.
The SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) catalytic converters manufactured by BUTTING are used in cruise ships and cargo ships to reduce their nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 90%.
In an effort to generate economic benefits for its customers, the family business relocated its series production for SCR catalytic converters from Knesebeck to Tieling (China).
The recently produced Cluster 5 Double Layer has a diameter of 3,900 mm and a total weight of 28 metric tonnes. This is the first time that BUTTING has built an SCR catalytic converter of this size: After a successful water pressure test, the quality of the product was also confirmed during the final inspection by the customer MITSUI and MAN Energy Solutions recently. The component was then collected from Tieling on a low-loader and shipped from Dalian, China, to Tamano, Japan, via Kobe, Japan.
