Both upstream and downstream pipelines rely heavily on industrial heaters for the transportation, preparation, and maintenance of oil products. Accurate, efficient heaters improve productivity and product quality – while minimizing loss. Electric hearts can provide reliable freeze protection, preventing the degradation of the product, and damage from expanding pipes. They also maintain viscosity ensuring optimal […]

Industrial heating systems, like circulation heaters, generally use either water or glycol mixtures for fluids. In applications where glycol is a suitable fluid, it is almost always the superior option. This article examines the benefits of glycol and its uses in industrial heating processes. Key Benefits of Glycol Temperature Glycol has a greater temperature range […]

Heat plays an essential role in the chilling process. Accurate, reliable, and quick heating is relied on to provide efficient chiller performance. This has made electric heaters an ideal solution for chilling applications. How Chillers Work Refrigerants are the chemical compound in process chillers. The cooled refrigerants pass on their low temperatures causing the refrigeration, […]

Direct Contact Heaters (DCHs) have become more efficient than Closed Feedwater Heaters (CFHWs). CFHWs have been a mainstay in power plants for decades. Modern technological advances, however, have made DCHs the ideal solution for current and future power plant applications. A Shift in Performance Direct contact heaters are not new to the power generation industry. […]

If you have noticed a decrease in the efficiency of your circulation heater, the most common culprit is fouling. Fouling is often accompanied by symptoms like pressure drops and inconsistent flow range. It can also cause temperatures to fall above or below the target range, using up more resources to heat or cool. The earlier […]
