Vahterus’ long-term customer UAB Green Group, an engineering company and contractor from Lithuania, has to date installed nine ammonia heat-pump systems to Lithuanian firms, with a total heating capacity exceeding 7 MW. Earlier this year, it supplied a 1.4 MW ammonia heat pump to one of the largest Lithuanian meat-processing plants, Biovela – Utena Meat. The pump has a COP of 7.2 – 8.25, depending on the operating conditions. Vahterus supplied a 1.4 MW Vahterus PSHE Multi-Condenser for the pump, in which an ammonia desuperheater and condenser are integrated in the same shell.

At the end of 2009, technicians at DONG’s combined heat and power plant (acquired by VEKS in May 2012), in Köge, Denmark, contacted one of our distributors about the replacement of an existing heat exchanger. Together, they found great potential for energy saving.

Vahterus provides Plate & Shell Heat Exchanger design for building-heat packages manufactured by Preston Phipps. The compact design makes it possible to manufacture skid assemblies that can handle large loads and take up a much smaller footprint.

Innovative Refrigeration Systems provides turnkey design and building services and Industrial refrigeration systems. Vahterus has been their partner in supplying heat exchangers since 2010. When their customer, United State Cold Storage, wanted to increase its blast freezing capacity in Dallas market, Innovative Refrigeration looked to Vahterus for reliability on performance and delivery. The project was realised in three phases, with the initial systems installed in 2013, and the later expansion in 2014 and 2016.High operating pressures require premium quality

Vahterus supplied a total of five heat exchangers to a heating plant constructed in 2015. The Vahterus heat exchangers help make the plant more efficient while reducing the plant’s carbon footprint and construction costs.

For a chemical plant in Antwerp, Kapp received an order for two separate Vahterus Plate & Shell Heat Exchangers. The applications for the heat exchangers are not extremely difficult however the end user is very pleased to have found this type of heat exchanger which is completely new to this plant.Tailored solution

The use of natural gas around the world is growing and in energy production, the traditional oil and coal are expected to be eclipsed by natural gas use in the coming years.

Sokolovská Uhelná is one of the largest producers of electricity from brown coal in the Czech Republic. It has a total annual capacity of around 3 500 GWh, which it transmits to the town of Karlovy Vary and other smaller towns in the region. Sokolovská Uhelná is also a coal mining company, producing thermal coal and chemical products derived from brown coal. The company mines about 6.5 million tons of brown coal each year.

A few years ago, Vahterus visited one of the largest food producers in Kazakhstan. The company was facing a challenge in the deodorization process of its sunflower oil.
