Overcoming fouling challenges: Sodium sulphate recovery case study

In this case study, Taprogge explains how it was able to improve the performance of a fertilizer production plant by retrofitting its KLAREN self-cleaning heat exchanger technology. The KLAREN self-cleaning heat exchanger technology has improved the plant’s performance significantly by preventing fouling and keeping the tubes in the first effect clean. Multiple inspections, in the first year after installation, confirmed that the tubes remained clean.

An improvement in steam economy by 5-10%, And A 10% increase in the feed flow rate to the multi-effect evaporator (MEE) are observed.

KLAREN Fluidized Bed Technology: Reducing viscosity by shear thinning

This article discusses that the fluidized bed besides the reduction of fouling and improving heat transfer also can reduce the apparent viscosity of high viscous liquids by a factor between 5 and 10. This improves heat transfer even more and reduces the pressure drop and as such the required pumping power, and hence is energy saving. Concentrated (or dense) suspensions are utilized in a multitude of natural and industrially relevant products and processes such as mining (slurries), petrochemical, paint, coating, plastics and food industries. Klaren’s technology is now proven with industrial trials in recent years with the desired results.

Use Of Flue Gases From Open Cycle Gas Turbines To Drive MSF Plants, Pilot Test With Fluidized Bed Heat Exchanger

2017

Presented in 2017 at Heat Exchanger Fouling & Cleaning conference XII in Spain, This paper presents the tests performed in 2015 and 2016, at Sabiyah Thermal Power and Desalination Plant with a fluidized bed self-cleaning heat exchanger test unit. This unit has been designed to test the non-fouling performance of the fluidized bed self-cleaning heat exchanger technology when heating up hot brine using flue gases at high temperatures of approximately 550 oC.
