AIR PREHEATING – A SIMPLE AND EFFICIENT WAY TO SAVE ENERGY
One of the most efficient and simple way to increase the performance of a furnace and to save energy is to increase the efficiency of the Combustion Air Preheater. A reduction of the stack temperature by 100 °C is equivalent to 5% energy saving, which in turn can be used to increase the throughput. When older air preheater units need to be replaced, it becomes an attractive solution to use this opportunity and chose more efficient units. A major advantage of BD-Heat CFX, a Counter Flow plate type Air Preheater, is the ability to easily replace outmoded, hard to repair regenerative and recuperative exchangers.
