Interstage heat recovery

Interchanging heat between outgoing hot oil and incoming cold feed.

Recommended type

Standard Gasketed Plate Heat Exchanger

Close temperature approach is exactly what a plate pack does well, which is what makes the energy recovery worth the capital. Every stage above is a candidate; the deodoriser economiser is simply the biggest of them. Interchange below the elastomer limit can stay gasketed and therefore openable, which on an oil duty is worth having. Viton on both sides, since the hot stream is oil.

Gasketed units on their frames, built and waiting for despatch. The painted carbon-steel frame is what a gasketed plate heat exchanger normally looks like; the plate pack between the tie bars is stainless, and it is the pack, not the frame, that touches the process.
