CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
HEAT EXCHANGERS, THE ESSENTIAL OF A CRITICAL SECTOR
Heat exchangers in the chemical industry are necessary to support multiple processes, many of which are essential for producing other products such as plastics, pharmaceuticals, agricultural, sanitary, or textile products.
When we talk about the chemical industry, we refer to one of the largest and most diversified in the world, with a wide variety of processes and technologies among which we highlight finned tube exchangers, pillow plate exchangers and immersed heat exchangers.
If this industry is essential, heat exchangers are essential because they cover needs such as:
1. Cool the distillates.
2. Cool leached liquids.
3. Recover and reuse condensed steam.
4. Control exothermic reactions.
5. Recover heat and save energy.
6. Cool products and processes.
Heat exchangers for the chemical industry
Gas heat recovery
Heat recuperator that economizes with the use of exhaust gases from boilers, turbines or combustion engines used for example in cogeneration. More efficiency and less emissions.
Counter flow heat exchanger
Cross-flow heat exchanger, usually between a stream of fumes or gases and another of air, without them mixing. With a design that is easy to clean and maintain. It is ideal for the energy, oil and gas sector.
Steam heat exchanger
Coil of tubes designed to convert saturated or wet steam into dry, superheated steam, usually by steam turbines for electricity generation. They can withstand temperatures of up to 950ºC.
