John Zink's air heaters and recuperators are engineered for optimal performance in drying processes and other applications requiring process temperatures above 200°C. These units are suitable for a range of industries, including chemical processing, hydrocarbon processing, and power utilities. The air heaters are capable of achieving maximum process air outlet temperatures of 500°C for compact units and up to 1,000°C for direct-fired heater units. They are designed with a stainless steel combustion chamber and an integrated convection tube bundle, which allows for short start-up times and high turn-down ratios.
Features
- Indirect and direct-fired process gas heaters suitable for a variety of applications
- Compact heater units ranging from 50 kW to 6 MW, with larger capacities available for specific needs
- Stainless steel construction with limited use of refractory material for durability and quick start-up
- High turn-down ratios and flame temperatures of approximately 1,400°C for efficient combustion.
- Integrated convection tube bundle for effective heat transfer
- Fuel flexibility, with options including natural gas (NG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), light fuel oil (LFO), and heavy fuel oil (HFO).
Benefits
- High efficiency with potential to exceed 90%, depending on the fuel used.
- Clean air process ensures that products are not contaminated by flue gases, maintaining their quality and integrity
- Short start-up times enhance operational flexibility and reduce waiting periods
- High turn-down ratios allow for precise control of heating, improving process stability
- Robust construction and design considerations lead to a long service life and reduced maintenance costs.
- Customizable solutions to meet specific process requirements and industry standards.
