Improve Fired Heater Air-Preheater Outcomes Using Econotherm’s Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger Technology
Inadequate equipment selection can lead to unplanned downtime and lost profits for refiners. This is especially true when it comes to selecting fired heater air-preheaters, since the conventional tubular and plate type varietals are prone to single point failure and acid gas condensation risk.
This white paper explores how Econotherm’s heat pipe heat exchanger technology is transforming the fired heater air-preheating landscape. By offering refiners a robust solution with multiple redundancies, heat pipe heat exchangers ultimately increase the reliability of heat recovery loops, lower the total cost of ownership for the refiner, and enable incremental energy recovery.
