Why Welded PHEs? Comparison with S&T technology
PROPRIETARY INFORMATION 6
• Compact and light weight
4000 m2 S&T HTA* fits in 2,9 m2 plot space
5-10 x less flooded weight
• High energy efficiency
Temperature approach of 3-5°C
3-5 x higher heat transfer efficiency
• Low fouling tendency & easy to clean
3 times longer operating period in-
between maintenance
1-3 days of down-time for cleaning
• Corrosion-free material,
no inter-plate gaskets
* Equals 850 m2 WPHE area

E. European Refinery CDU capacity increase & energy efficiency project
• 750 m3/h, 2 types of crude (API 29 & 36)
• Objective is to
– Increase capacity to 1000 m3/h
– Increase fired heater efficiency from 75 to 93%
– Increase CIT from 230 to 295 degC
• Basic Engineering was done in 2012 by FW (Italy & Turkey)
• Lots of modification to existing PHT (around 20 positions).
• 5 new heat exchanger positions added in PHT
• 2 new heat exchanger positions added on side streams
