A total of 37 large heat exchangers were ordered for a petrochemical project in Eastern Europe. Stockholm, Sweden-based Tranter will supply four jumbo-sized shell-and-plate heat exchangers that will be used in close temperature approach heat recovery services.

The SP900EC is a 480 to 600, three-phase AC voltage 50/60Hz product. It is engineered to meet low noise and high efficiency requirements in industrial heat exchange applications. 

Exchanger Industries Ltd. (EIL), a Canada-based designer and manufacturer of heat transfer products, acquired HRS Heat Exchangers Ltd. (HRS).

Heat exchangers used for exhaust gas heat recovery need to be robust in order to cope with the physical and chemical stresses imposed on them from the exhaust gases, which are both hot and corrosive.

Watlow attained INMETRO certification on its Hydrosafe indirect heat exchanger. A certificate of compliance to the INMETRO regulations ensures electrical and electronic products can be sold and distributed in Brazil.

Scraped surface heat exchangers can provide thermal treatment for products such as viscous foods and slurries, which have a high fouling potential. A common type has rotary scrapers within a tube, but several designs variations are offered by different manufacturers.

Graphite cubic block heat exchangers have a small footprint with a high amount of heat transfer surface area. Heat exchangers in excess of 400 ft2 of surface area can be supplied.

Heat exchangers used for processes such as pasteurization and sterilization must be properly designed and built in order to ensure product safety. In terms of design, there are two main methods to prevent cross-contamination between the product and the service medium (heating or cooling).

Sandvik’s team based in Dubai will partner with Serck Services of United Arab Emirates to manufacture heat exchangers. Duplex tube-to-tube sheet welding is key to fabrication, and Sandvik will offer this support as part of the agreement.

The process-efficiency benefits of utilizing heat from one part of an industrial process in another are well understood. Heat reuse — sometimes referred to as regeneration — is widespread across a range of processes: pasteurization and sterilization, evaporation, drying, distillation, pressurization, cooking, space and media heating, and reactor heating, to name a few. In fact, the list of applications is as varied as the industries themselves.
