Measures to enhance energy: Pumps

Pumps consume much electrical energy - the choice and configuration of the correct pumpt is therefore extremely important. If mistakes are made, the hereby incurred extra costs during the plant's entire life quickly add up to several hundred thousand Euro. 1. Plant design Pressure loss and the design of the... read more →

Conception and operation of HTF-plants

Dr. Glueck, what should be regarded in the conception of heat transfer plants? Important is a careful and detailed planning of the plant and the operation of the plant because almost all operating costs are determined in the planning phase already. Errors made here are hardly more to compensate... read more →

Measures to enhance energy: Plant design

For the design of heat transfer plants there are, in our experience, four factors that are important for an economical plant operation: 1. Choice of primary energy The choice of the energy source plays a major role for the future operating costs. When, for example, natural gas is chosen as... read more →

Beheizung mit Rauchgasen aus thermischer Abluftreinigung - Heating with exhaust gas from thermal flue air cleaning

Reduction of nozzle loads

Piping in thermal oil plants are exposed to stress factors of many kind: Their own weight (including heat insulation) and the weight of the heat transfer fluid that is passing through them lead to loads and deformations. Moreover, due to the temperature increase of the fluid (from room temperature to... read more →
