Although many traditional heat exchanger applications can be considered heat recovery, high energy costs and government mandate are driving industry to new applications for heat recovery.
Air to Air / Gas to Gas
Many industrial processes exhaust hot gas to the atmosphere. Current energy costs and environmental regulations make these exhaust gases an opportunity for energy savings. Des Champs Technologies has pre-engineered industrial systems to suit most gas to gas heat recovery applications. |

Flue gas heat recovery systems are a simple and cost-effective way to capture the energy that is lost in flue gas exhaust and to use that energy elsewhere. Installed in exhaust stacks for steam boilers, hot water boilers, or high temperature ovens for process work, waste heat can be recovered to heat; air, water, or water glycol solutions.
The heat exchangers can be designed for gas, oil, or even chemical vapor and depending on the application may be coated to suit the exhaust gas conditions. Stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminum heat exchangers are available with fin or plate spacing designed to match temperature, fouling potential, and maintenance requirements. |  |
Waste Water
Hot or cold water going to waste is another opportunity for heat recovery. Similar to exhaust gas applications, the exhaust water can be used to heat or cool air, thermal fluid, glycol, water, or other fluids. Even in circumstances where the water may be high fouling an appropriate heat exchanger can be selected. In cases of poor water quality, energy recovery systems can be designed to recover heat or cold from process grey water.
Heat Recovery Applications:
- Gas Turbines
- Commercial laundry services
- Hospital / Hotel / Institutional laundry wash water
- Textile manufacturers
- Vegetable wash water
- Glass manufacturing
- Industrial ovens
- Powder Coating Lines
- Paint Lines
- Printing Processes
- Food and Pharmaceuticals
- Combustion air preheat
