Service Terminal Rotterdam, part of Burando Maritime Service is currently expanding its production capacity at their Torontostraat 20, Rotterdam-Botlek location.
The expansion involves the installation of 5 new storage tanks for crude oil or a blend of other maritime fuels with the following capacities: 2x 53.000 m 3, 1x 40.000 m3 and 2x 13.000 m3.
Jongia mixing technology has supplied many of the mixers which are currently in use at STR’s existing storage tank park. These mixers have been operating trouble-free since 2004, reason for STR to opt for JONGIA mixers for the new tanks as well.
The mixers, 20 in total, are so-called side entry mixers, type RWP are mounted in the side-wall of the vessels. Depending on the vessel’s capacity 3,4 or 5 mixers are installed which keep the vessel contents in motion in order to maintain homogeneity and an even temperature throughout the entire vessel.
The Jongia mixers are fitted with either 22 or 45 kW e-motors, oversized shafts and an extremely reliable mechanical shaft seal. “Leakage is not an issue because of this particular seal” according to Tom Pruymboom, sales director of Jongia. “The reliability of the Jongia mixers and our process guarantee are the reason why STR opts for Jongia mixers”
Jongia Mixing Technology, one of the member firms of the Stibbe Management Holding, is located in Leeuwarden. Its expertise is the design, engineering and manufacturing of mixers for the (petro)chemical, food and waste water industry.
Jongia was founded in 1937 and over the years it has earned the reputation of being a reliable manufacturer of mixers both with national and international clients.
