OUTRIGHT LIQUIDATION OF PROCESS PLANTS AND EQUIPMENT

Sell Your Used Process Equipment

Whether you have a complete process plant that you are looking to sell or you have surplus equipment, you’ll have several sales options available with Phoenix Equipment which you can learn more about below. We have the knowledge, expertise, and resources available to make a quick sale at the greatest convenience to you. Complete our short form below to get in contact with a Phoenix representative and receive a quick and fair quote for your equipment.

Selling Options for Complete Plants

Outright Plant Purchase

Phoenix acquires the plant, agreeing to dismantle the plant and leave you with a broom clean area by a specific date. We either sell the plant for relocation in its entirety or liquidate it for its individual components. Depending on the deal structure, we can share sales revenue after hitting certain milestones.

Brokerage for Complete Plants

Brokerage is also an option if you wish to sell your complete plant. We offer two brokerage scenarios: Act as an Exclusive Marketing Agent. Phoenix obtains for a specified period the exclusive right to sell the plant. Act as a Non-Exclusive Marketing Agent. Under this scenario, we’ll simply list your process plant within our inventory. You are free to sell the plant through other channels.

Selling Options for Equipment

Outright Equipment Purchase

Similar to complete process plants, you can also sell us your process equipment. In an outright equipment purchase, we make a cash offer after receiving information or inspecting equipment. If you accept our offer, we’ll arrange for pick-up at your convenience. We can also handle removing the equipment if necessary. This is the quickest way to sell your surplus equipment and put working capital in your pocket almost immediately.

Brokerage for Equipment

If you can continue to store the equipment and can wait to sell it, your best option may be to list your equipment with us. We will help you obtain the highest return on your investment with a free listing. We’ll only require a few importance pieces of information from you, including: equipment specifications, your asking price and photos. We will then enter the equipment in our inventory and market it to our customers. Any negotiations and payment collections will be handled by us, and we also oversee the transport and removal processes.

LIQUIDATIONS & AUCTIONS

Outright Purchase and Liquidation

Phoenix Equipment acquires your surplus plant or machinery and then executes a liquidation or auction as a principal – taking all risk to sell the assets. We can share revenue after certain sales milestones are achieved. We manage the entire process: cataloguing, marketing, negotiating, payment collections, item removal and transportation.

Liquidation or Auction as a Broker

Under this scenario, Phoenix Equipment manages a liquidation or auction of your surplus plant or machinery on a fee basis. In most cases, we can even guarantee a minimum return. We manage the entire process: cataloguing, marketing, negotiating, payment collections, item removal and transportation.

Why Use Phoenix for Your Plant Dismantling & Plant Relocation Needs

A Common Plant Liquidation Scenario Your company has made the tough decision to close a plant. This plant was running for years, and the company paid a lot to have it built, paid everyone’s salaries, and maintained or even modernized all of the production assets over the plant’s life but the plant needs to be sold off for one reason or another. Your company has called upon you to recover as much dollar as you can to help keep the organization alive, and better yet, healthy, in what is a constant battle in the marketplace. You’ve either: Have spent months, maybe even years trying to find a buyer that would operate the plant in place, without any success, while the plant’s assets lose value every passing day. Or, you can’t sell it to another company, as you are one of the few suppliers of the product the plant makes, and you don’t want to create a competitor, or improve a competitor’s position. Or, the plant is on leased propert

Hydrogenation: Major Applications

Hydrogenation is a billion-dollar industry. Hydrogenating means to add hydrogen to something. According to Haldor Topsoe, hydrogenation comprises 48% of total hydrogen consumption, 44% of which is for hydrocracking and hydrotreating in refineries , and 4% for hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons (including hardening of edible oil) and of aromatics, hydrogenation of aldehydes and ketones (for instance oxo-products), and hydrogenation of nitrobezene (for manufacture of aniline). Hydrocracking & Hydrotreating Industrially, hydrotreating and hydrocracking are performed in down flow ‘trickle bed reactors’, where the gas and the liquid feed are sent concurrently through a fixed bed plug flow reactor. Although the flow pattern in the reactor can be reasonably approximated, the observed kinetics in such a trickle bed reactor are quite often affected by minor unplanned oscillations in the flow. How the gas and liquid collide and mix together affects the end prod

Thermoplastics – A Focus on Polyethylene & Polypropylene

Thermoplastics are a class of polymers, that with the application of heat, can be softened and melted, and can be processed either in the heat-softened state (e.g. by thermoforming) or in the liquid state (e.g. by extrusion and injection molding). Over 70% of the plastics used in the world are thermoplastics, and the two most commonly used thermoplastics are both olefins, compound made up of hydrogen and carbon that contains one or more pairs of carbon atoms linked by a double bond. These two olefins are polyethylene and polypropylene. Polyethylene Polyethylene is a tough, light, flexible synthetic resin made by polymerizing ethylene, chiefly used for plastic bags, food containers, and other packaging. It may be of low density or high density depending upon the process used in its manufacturing. It is resistant to moisture and most of the chemicals. It can be heat sealed and is flexible at room temperature (and low temperature), and in additional to its material properties,
