Condensing Heat Recovery + APC system

Waste Flue Gas Sources:

• Oxidizers

• Ovens

• Boilers

• Dryers

• Evaporators and Sterilizers

• Paper Machine Dryers

• Industrial Product Dryers

• Product Steamers and Cookers

• Waste Incinerators

• Gas Turbine or Engine Cogen

Energy Recycling for:

• Process Make-up Water

• Heating

• Boiler Make-up Water Heating

• CIP / Process Liquid Heating

• Dryer Make-up Air Heating

• Combustion Air Heating

• Ventilation Make-up Air

• Heating

• Mixed Air Heating

• Perimeter Radiation Heating

• Domestic Hot Water Heating

5% to 30% Typical Energy Savings

FLU-ACE® Heat Recovery

11

FLU-ACE® Heat Recovery

11

The heat (both latent and sensible) from the flue gas is transferred to the primary circuit water by cooling the exhaust gas to below its dew point

The blue area to the right represents latent heat, the brown area sensible heat

Heated water is circulated at up to 160°F to various heat users

With indirect design the primary circuit water can be raised to 200°F

12

FLU-ACE® - Additional Benefits

In addition to fuel savings such as:

Prevent / offset capital investment in boiler upgrades / replacements

Increase in production / throughput

Environmental benefits (>90% removal of SO2, >50% removal of PM)

Elimination of seasonality

Fuel conservation proportional tradable reduction in CO2, NOx, and SO2

Typical Steam System

10% to 30% average annual failure rate Higher on superheated and high pressure systems

Unpredictable life cycle Failures undetected without constant surveys

Typical Steam Trap Problems

14

• Maintenance headacheReplacing traps and installing service kits

• Low priority…And therefore OFTEN IGNORED until process is affected

15

The GEM Steam Trapping System

15

Ruby Trap

Performs well under pressure

Topaz Trap

Ideal for all of your clean

steam needs

Sapphire Trap

The most popular trap in

town

Emerald Trap

The perfect trap for those

‘Quick-fit adapter’ moments

Opal Trap

The new kid on the block

How The GEM Trap Operates – Start-up

16

•Condensate is preferentially discharged at Start Up

•Air vents through the orifice at high velocity

17

System Running Load

17

• Depending on the flow rate, the flash point will occur at different stages in the venturi

• Minimum restriction of flash expansion = reduced localised back pressure

• Point of back pressure further from the point of restriction = less effect

Lower Condensate Load

Higher Condensate Load
