The Spirax Sarco Exhaust Vapour Condenser (EVC) isa reliable, innovative solution for pre-heating make-up orprocess water by utilising the waste heat that wouldotherwise be lost to the atmosphere.
EVC heat exchangers are compact and designed for thecondensing of flash steam, delivering an economic efficient solution for heat transfer in any industry. The unique straightcorrugated tube design encourages turbulent flow, resulting inhigh efficiency heat transfer, improving the efficiency of yoursteam system, reducing your CO2 and carbon emissions andhelping you cut your energy bill.
Typical application:
Reducing your steam generation costs
With today's energy pricing and the need to reduce emissions, a plant's steam and condensate system cannot afford to ventflash steam to the atmosphere. A typical system will incorporate a condensate receiver that allows the flash steam to ventto the atmosphere.
Non pressurised condensate receivers often vent flash steam toatmosphere, which is due to high temperature condensate beingreturned to a vessel, this can lead to partial pressurisation of thevessel and local boiling may occur which also evaporatesmore of the cooler condensatewithin the receiver.
