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
