Interchangers

Feed/Effluent Exchangers

Recovering the heat from hot process streams for preheating the same or other process media is the way to make processes more energy efficient. Typically, feed/effluent exchangers are used to preheat the reactor feed with the heat of effluent. The true counter-current provided by Vahterus PSHEs makes them the perfect, highly efficient choice for this application. Their temperature- and pressure-handling capabilities also make heat recovery possible in the most challenging operating conditions.

Benefits

  • Thermally efficient
  • True counter-current design makes a very narrow temperature approach possible
  • Low fouling keeps the heat recovery constant
  • Good mechanical capabilities (pressure, temperature) enable heat recovery in demanding conditions
  • Very compact and lightweight solutions make the installation easy even in existing process plants
