Flue Gas Heat Recovery Gas to Oil

Flue Gas Heat Recovery Gas to Oil

Gas-to-oil in flue gas heat recovery typically refers to the recovery and reuse of energy by transferring heat from the exhaust gases to a liquid (usually oil or other heat transfer medium). This process of heat recovery involves a heat exchanger, which transfers the heat energy from the exhaust gases to the liquid, raising the temperature of the liquid while cooling the exhaust gases themselves.

Here are some common applications for gas-to-oil in flue gas heat recovery:

Oil bath heaters: The high temperature heat energy in the exhaust gases can be transferred to the liquid oil, creating a closed oil bath system. This is often used in industry where equipment, pipes or reactors need to be heated to a specific temperature.

Hot air ovens: The heat energy in the exhaust gas can be used to heat the oil to form a hot air. This hot air can be used for drying and heating air or other materials in industrial processes.

Thermal oil heating systems: The heat energy in the exhaust gas can be transferred to the thermal oil to form a thermal oil heating system. Such systems are often used for heating, steam generators and other applications where heat energy is required.

Hot water circulation systems: The heat energy in the exhaust gas can be used to heat water to form a hot water circulation system. This system can be used to heat water for industrial, commercial or residential use.

Oil Cooling Systems: In some industrial processes, the heat energy in the exhaust gases can be used to cool lubricating oils or other working media to maintain the normal operating temperature of the equipment.

Evaporator systems: The heat energy in the exhaust gases can be used to heat the liquid in the evaporator, causing the liquid to evaporate and the evaporation process to take place.

By transferring the heat energy in the exhaust gas to the liquid, these systems can effectively recover energy, improve energy efficiency, reduce energy waste, and at the same time reduce the impact on the environment.
