Ducting can be manufactured for new, retrofit, or upgrade applications. Our designs are targeted at high performance, longevity, and low maintenance. We specialize in highly corrosive environments (e.g. coastal and off-shore), and high temperature – high flow applications. This is a key part of the upcoming carbon capture plant strategy, which Cullum recently demonstrated at TATA Winnington.

 

In exhaust stack application, Cullum can offer free-standing, cantilevered, or supported stacks with customized layouts to navigate complicated site/platform layouts; tailored to withstand the environment loads (e.g. wind, snow, seismic) even in the most arduous environments (e.g. hurricane, cyclone).

 

Our qualified team of structural engineers can design support steelwork which withstands the required environmental challenges, and has access platforms, emission sampling ports, and access points to meet your customers’ needs.

 

When required, Cullum can provide emission control systems (e.g. CO2, NOx, carbon capture), which are seamless integrated into the overall exhaust system design. For more information …(link here to emissions control).

 

Our exhaust silencers are optimized to suit the system layout, noise source, and structural requirement. The fibre retention systems implemented inside the baffles are tailored to perform for the lifetime of the system, regardless of flow velocity. We have exhausts that are still in fully operational after 50 years in service.

 

Cullum has a proven track record of providing ultra-low high acoustic performance silencers for ultra-low noise gas turbine packages, and high acoustic performance coupled with high aerodynamic efficiency for aerodynamic test facilities. We have designed solutions for rocket and explosives test facilities, which can perform even in the most aggressive flow and temperature conditions.

 

If your application features hazardous zones, Cullum can provide our ducting and even our silencers in cold-case versions, which will meet touch temperature and auto-ignition limits.
