Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) technology involves high tech Expansion Joints as they are exposed to high temperatures, high pressures, large movement conditions and very aggressive media.

MACOGA has advanced capabilities to design and manufacture FCCU Expansion Joints and all its components and accessories and offers a full range of Expansion Joints for this critical application.

On this occasion we have manufactured an FCC Regenerator Standpipe Expansion Joint for a European Refinery.
