Refit, Repurpose and Recharge



Ethanol, chemical processing and refining, electronics, finishing, food processing, plastics, packaging, printing, pharmaceuticals and pulp/paper/converting: Industries with at least two things in common -- the use of heat during the manufacturing process and Process Heating magazine. If you’re in need of new heat processing equipment or just want to know what’s on the market, turn to our Product Marketplace. In it, you’ll find more than 150 product descriptions covering every industry I just mentioned and almost any way you can think of process heating.

And, while the equipment, systems and supplies are available exactly as described, many also can be customized to suit your specific needs. That means if you think it might work, it’s worth a call to the manufacturer to describe your application in detail. To make that easy for you, we’ve included phone numbers and web addresses with each of the product listings in this guide. You also can put the Internet to work for you by using the e-mail addresses provided with some listings or by going directly to the web sites of those companies in which you are interested.

If, after looking through the products in this issue, you still can’t find what you need, consider using our online Equipment Overviews. Offered exclusively on www.process-heating.com, our interactive Equipment Overviews cover 11 key equipment categories -- boilers, power controls, ovens, dryers, convection and conduction heaters, temperature controllers, burners, heat exchangers, infrared heaters, heat transfer fluids and temperature sensors.

Each online Equipment Overview includes an advanced search function that allows you to select an “and” or “or” search. If you select “and,” the advanced search function finds only those companies that meet all of the criteria you select from the checklist. If you select “or,” the search function will find all of the companies that meet at least one of your criteria. You also can use built-in hyperlinks to suppliers’ sites to quickly get a closer look at a potential supplier. And, you can submit requests for more information online with just a few clicks on your keyboard. To try it out, point your browser to www.process-heating.com and click on “Equipment Overviews” under Resources on the red navigation bar on the left, or simply look for the teaser in the upper right-hand corner.
