Ingetecsa is a worldwide operating engineering company. Our headquarters are in Barcelona, Spain. From the very beginning, we have specialised in industrial drying and cooling solutions for the food, mineral, chemical and phosphates industries.
Established in 1966 as a sales office for Babcock GmbH, our company swiftly evolved, adding a technical office and a global production network. Over 60 years, we have amassed extensive experience and fostered a culture of innovation, transforming into a highly skilled and adaptable engineering company.
Ingetecsa maintains a fully equipped pilot scale/test facility in Barcelona that allows clients to test their (phosphate and others) feedstocks through mixing, reacting, granulating, maturing, drying and cooling. All in one go! Using bench scale as well as small industrial scale units, they enable clients to simulate actual operating conditions, optimize and guarantee process parameters, evaluate how impurities behave, and assess granulation processes reducing dust, energy consumption and optimize thermal efficiencies.
Moreover, Ingetecsa offers strong engineering support: process modelling, correct equipment sizing of heavy-duty reactors, granulators and dryers.
Through pilot trials, one can reduce scale up risk, validate yield, optimize granulation and drying conditions, test flexibility (e.g. handling different feedstock dust or granulated forms), and ensure compliance with feed/food grade and environmental norms.
