Latent Heat Recovery from Dirty Steam

About

Blue Tower I specializes in recovering all latent heat from dirty steam and vapor exhausts.
This system captures and recycles heat that is otherwise lost through flue gases, significantly improving energy efficiency in steam-intensive operations.
With a direct condensation step, the steam condensate is filtered and used as a heat source to transfer the heat to a secondary clean waterloop: > 600 kWh per ton steam.

The secondary waterloop is heated up to 97°C!

Applications & Benefits

Any application with soiled steam exhaust:

Cookers: Autoclaves to sterilize products
Hydrolysers: Pressure reactors to disintegrate product with steam
Sterilisers
Continuous dirty steam discharge on evaporators, UHT's, etc.

Key benefits compared to traditional condensors

Almost all latent heat is recovered from dirty steam and vapor. Reducing the exhaust air to the airfraction and uncondensables.
The most efficient heat recovery, heating up a secondary waterloop up to 97°C!
Efficiency and high temperature isn't affected even with very low incoming steamflow.
Providing waste Heat at the highest temperature possible:
Allowing for a greater scope of waste heat reuse.
High Temperature recovery opens the door to fossil fuel free steam production with High Temperature Heat Pumps
Self-Cleaning and discharge of the dirt during operation
Reduction of odorous smells
Possible PH-correction or CIP (Cleaning-In-Place) during operation
Solution with negligable counterpressure
Batch or continuous steam inlet possible
Can buffer high peak flashes (> 20 MW) while simultaneously delivering the recovered heat evenly.
