Ecoservices performs novel converter repair
Ecoservices’ Dominguez plant in Carson, CA, recently replaced its converter’s internal heat exchanger in a meticulously choreographed shutdown spanning 22 days in April, 2022. Like many large construction projects, the replacement involved numerous moving parts. But a unique circumstance raised the complexity for the Dominguez plant—lack of precedent. Very few internal exchanger replacements have been performed in the industry.
