Optimize Energy Recovery

What is an Industrial Heat Exchangers?

Industrial heat exchangers enable the efficient transfer of heat from one fluid to another without mixing them. There is also the possibility to transform air into a fluid or vice versa. This allows you to capture and reuse waste heat but also gives the possibility to reheat from different temperatures.

This will significantly reduce the energy required to maintain or heat up process temperatures. By doing so, you save on energy costs and enhance overall energy efficiency. 

Heat Source & Heat Sink 

How does a Industrial Heat Exchanger work?

In a process, some machines or equipment generate heat (heat source), while others require heat (heat sinks) to operate. By identifying which machines produce or consume heat, we can determine the best way to transfer heat between them efficiently. The integration of a heat exchanger depends on various factors, such as:

  • Waste heat from low to high and vice versa 
  • Distance from producer to consumer 
  • Existing piping and site layout 
  • Liquids used in process (Ammonia e.g.) 
  • Which phase a substance has (gas/liquid)

Combining Heat Exchanger and Industrial Heat Pump Integration

In industrial processes, a industrial heat exchanger is often used to extract excess heat from a heat source, such as machinery or exhaust systems. This recovered heat may not always be at a high enough temperature for other processes.

By integrating an industrial heat pump, the extracted heat can be upgraded to a higher, more useful temperature. The industrial heat pump takes the low-grade heat from the exchanger and elevates it, making it suitable for various applications, such as heating or additional process needs.

This combined system (Energy Recovery Scrubber) enhances energy efficiency by maximizing the use of available heat sources, reducing energy waste, and lowering operational costs.

Why choose JOA to integrate a Heat Exchanger in your production process? 

The most effective type of heat exchanger depends on the specific requirements and processes of your industrial operation. There is no one-size-fits-all solution, as the ideal heat exchanger varies based on factors such as fluid type, temperature range, pressure, and available space.

A thorough understanding of your site’s requirements is always the starting point for new systems or improvements. To ensure you choose the right heat exchanger for your process, please contact us for expert guidance and tailored solutions.

Where are industrial heat exchangers commonly used?
Industrial heat exchangers are used in various applications that require efficient heat transfer. Common use cases include cooling hot liquids or gases before they are released or stored, preheating fluids before they enter a reactor, recovering waste heat from exhaust gases to improve energy efficiency, condensing steam into water in a cooling process, and maintaining precise temperature control in chemical reactions. They are also used for processes like pasteurization, vapor condensation, and maintaining consistent temperatures in large-scale refrigeration systems.
