Heat Recovery From Dry To Wet Crude

CHALLENGE

Capture heat energy from hot, dry crude from the treater undergoing cooling and transfer it to the crude emulsion heaters.

SOLUTION

A Tranter SUPERCHANGER Plate And Frame Heat Exchanger configured as an interchanger.

RESULTS

• With their high U or K values, Tranter Plate Heat Exchangers recover a larger percentage of the available heat energy than possible with shell and tube heat exchangers.
• Good resistance to scaling on heat exchange surfaces.
• Long service cycles without leaks or downtime.
• Compact size and low weight.
• Good maintenance accessibility.
