Chemical and petrochemical plants exhaust VOC-laden, often explosive process air. CNCSP isolated plate recovery pre-heats make-up and abatement air safely.
The challenge
Process and oven exhaust carries VOCs and may be explosive. Heat recovery must not carry VOCs into supply air or create ignition risk at abatement units.
How air-to-air heat recovery helps
Apply all-welded or 316L plate sensible cores to pre-heat combustion or make-up air for RTO or RCO or CO abatement. No rotary wheels (VOC carryover risk); corrosion-resistant build for aggressive streams.
Recommended CNCSP exchangers
- All-welded / 316L plate cores - process exhaust recovery.
- Pre-heat for RTO / RCO / CO - abatement energy savings.
- No rotary wheels - avoids VOC carryover and ignition risk.
