Flash Tank Heat Recovery

Boiler Blowdown Systems
CB-8490H

  • For steam applications
  • Captures waste heat from blowdown process
  • Preheats cold makeup water
  • Up to 22 gpm blowdown water
  • Up to 180 gpm makeup water

 

The model AHR is a coil-type, flash tank heat exchanger. It is a compact, low-cost alternative to the shell and tube design, while still offering waste heat recovery to pre-heat make-up water, reducing operating costs for the system.

  • Product Overview
  • Related Resources
  • Applications
  • Heat recovered as flashed steam
  • Efficient baffling separates the dirty blowdown water from the clean steam
  • Transfers the remaining heat normally lost during blowdown to the cold makeup water as it flows to the feedwater heater
  • Consists of an ASME-approved and stamped flash tank and a blowdown heat exchanger
  • Compact, low-cost alternative to the shell and tube design

 

In addition to the heat recovered as flashed steam, the heat exchanger will transfer the remaining heat normally lost during blowdown to the cold makeup water as it flows to the feedwater heater. The systems quickly pay for themselves with fuel savings resulting from using heat that would otherwise be wasted.
