Industrial heat exchangers come in a variety of sizes and styles, including:
Double pipe heat exchangers are the simplest exchangers used in industries. On one hand, these heat exchangers are cheap for both design and maintenance, making them a good choice for small industries. On the other hand, their low efficiency coupled with the high space occupied in large scales, has led modern industries to use more efficient heat exchangers like shell and tube or plate.
Shell-and-tube heat exchanger...
Heat exchangers are widely used for industrial application, especially they are applied in many different industries and processes. According to the Wikipedia, A heat exchanger is a system used to transfer heat between two or more fluids. Heat exchangers are used in both cooling and heating processes.
Heat exchangers often work in conjunction with other heating system components. The purpose is to regulate the temperature of viscous fluids like oil and asphalt. There are a few different...
As we all know, energy efficiency is important. If you’re a plant manager or industrial facility owner, there may be one place where you’re overlooking efficiency: the industrial heating equipment that powers your facility.
Efficiency is especially important on a large scale and manufacturing and production operations are no exception. Here are two key reasons why you may want to consider upgrading your industrial heating equipment or installing a new, highly efficient therm...
EPA has promulgated national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants from three major source categories: Industrial boilers, commercial and institutional boilers, and process heaters. The final emission standards for control of mercury, hydrogen chloride, particulate matter (as a surrogate for non-mercury metals), and carbon monoxide (as a surrogate for organic hazardous emissions) from coal-fired, biomass-fired, and liquid-fired major source boilers are based on the maximum achievable control technology. In addition, all major source boilers and process heaters are subject to a work practice standard to periodically conduct tune-ups of the boiler or process heater.
Three-drum boilers are a class of water-tube boiler used to generate steam, typically to power ships. They are compact and of high evaporative power, factors that encourage this use. Other boiler designs may be more efficient, although bulkier, and so the three-drum pattern was rare as a land-based stationary boiler.
The heat requirements of the building materials manufacturing process are very varied. A steam boiler plays a key role in the process of creating building materials. For example, materials like molded brick rely very much on steam heat from an industrial steam boiler in order to pressurize and harden the elements that make up the brick. Without exposure to that kind of heat and pressure, these materials would be a loose construction of sediment, rather than dependable, solid building components....
While the exact chemical treatment plan will be determined by a local water expert after performing an analysis of a water sample, there are some chemicals that are commonly used to treat boiler water.
Establishing a boiler water treatment plan will provide you with real-time feedback of your boiler system so you can get ahead of any issues that might occur as a result of poor water quality. We broke down the boiler water treatment process into three simple steps that you can incorporate into your preventative maintenance practices.
