As the price of electricity is rising in these uncertain times, reducing energy losses in transformers is more important than ever. Nynas’ bio-based insulating liquid NYTRO® BIO 300X promises to improve the performance of transformers, helping utilities to achieve sustainability targets.

Due to its very low kinematic viscosity, the fully recyclable NYTRO BIO 300X provides improved convective heat transfer in power transformers.

A number of pilot projects have helped confirm that, depending on the design, significant temperature reductions of both windings and hot spot could be achieved.

At the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, over 1 GW of solar photovoltaic panels are currently operating. With a combined investment of $13.6 billion, this value is targeted to reach 5GW by 2030; thus, approximately 6.5 million tons of CO2 emissions will be saved annually.

Shuaa Energy 1, the second phase of the solar park with 200 MW, became operational in 2017. The facility uses fixed-pitch thin-film technology, has more than 2.3 million solar panels, and produces clean energy equivalent to the energy consumption of 50,000 residences in the Emirate.

At Nynas, we’re world leaders in hydrotreatment. Which is great news for health and safety. Let us explain.

Thanks to this expertise, we’re able to produce safer, eco-friendlier oils. Traditionally, many products – tyres are just one example – contain high aromatic (HA) oils. These oils, in turn, contain compounds that can be injurious to one’s health and that are virtually non-degradable. Which is why they are gradually being phased out – in fact, as of 2010 tyre manufacturers in the EU are banned from producing tyres containing high aromatic oils.

Today, we (and our customers) know a lot more about product safety than we did, say, 20 years ago. That knowledge is reflected in ever safer solutions.

Cleaner oils, safer products

As a society, we are well informed today. This trend will only grow stronger, and the legislation reflecting it more draconian. Our naphthenic grades are not classified as carcinogenic, allowing them to replace, for example high aromatic oils in tyres. Another application on the horizon is using naphthenic oil as a plasticizer in PVC; the phtalates used today are environmentally unsuitable.

“NYTRO BIO 300X is the result of years of intensive research. We are now able to offer a 100% renewable product with superior performance. It is a true innovation,” says Koen Kempeneer, Global Market Manager Electrical Industry at Nynas.

A key advantage of this new fluid is that it offers exceptionally good cooling thanks to its ultra-low viscosity. The transformer’s winding hot spot temperature can be significantly reduced.

Sustainability moved to the next level: SGB SMIT Group successfully tested 1st transformer in Germany with Nynas NYTRO® BIO 300X.

Together we have now reached the next level of more sustainable insulating liquids:NYTRO® BIO 300X is a true innovation that has now been fully tested and approved by Starkstrom-Gerätebau GmbH in Regensburg (Headquarter of SGB-SMIT Group), fulfilling, and even exceeding the requirements of the transformer operator, the German utility Westnetz.

By quickly adapting production, Nynas was able to meet an increase in demand resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic.

NYFLEX® 223 is a hydrotreated and highly refined, high-viscosity naphthenic oil, which is used for hot melt adhesives, as well as plasticiser for TPE and high-end rubber articles. Having experienced global growth in recent years of between 3 % and 10 %, depending on the region, this spring saw a major shift in the trend.“Global demand for NYFLEX® 223 went up in April by 60 %, and since May it has actually doubled.
