Energy reduction in the heating process of organic solvents! Introducing a case study of the all-welded plate heat exchanger 'XP Plate' in a chemical plant.
The customer requested a reduction in energy consumption during the heating process of organic solvents. In response, we introduced our fully welded plate heat exchanger, the 'XP Plate.' After implementation, it became possible to recover 3,590 GJ of heat annually, resulting in a reduction of steam in the heating process amounting to 6 million yen per year. Additionally, by preventing the accumulation and clogging of dirt with the "XP Plate Heat Exchanger," we were able to reduce maintenance frequency and extend operating time. 【Customer's Issues and Requests】 ■ Organic solvents are heated with steam in the heating process. ■ Since it is necessary to raise the temperature of the organic solvents in the heating process, preheating can reduce the amount of steam used. ■ Conventional plate heat exchangers often clog and do not allow for heat recovery. ■ Tube-type heat exchangers have low performance and cannot recover sufficient heat. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Our company is engaged in the development of technology for "ocean thermal energy conversion," which can be considered the ultimate renewable energy. The technologies we have cultivated over many years are not only aimed at realizing ocean thermal energy conversion but are also used for generating electricity from relatively low-temperature industrial waste heat produced by factories, as well as geothermal heat from hot springs. Furthermore, they are utilized as heat exchangers for various industrial applications beyond power generation. The core of our technology lies in process engineering related to the temperature difference power generation system and the design and manufacturing of heat exchangers, which are the most critical equipment that constitutes this system. The heat exchanger we have independently developed for the practical application of ocean thermal energy conversion, the XP plate, is a plate-type heat exchanger with a fully welded structure that is entirely different from conventional products. It has obtained numerous patents along with its outstanding manufacturing technology. With its simple and direct flow path, the XP plate has garnered attention as a compact device that efficiently recovers thermal energy from fluids that tend to clog and contain solids, which have previously been abandoned, as well as from gases that need to flow at high volumes and speeds.
