Energy Recovery System: Heat Exchangers
Heat Exchangers
Our innovative project, known as Energy Recovery System, involves the installation of Heat Exchangers. These units will help homes and businesses recover and reuse heat energy in order to improve overall energy efficiency and reduce heating costs. We are excited to showcase this project and the positive impact it will have on our clients' operations.
A heat exchanger is a device that facilitates the process of heat exchange between two fluids that are at different temperatures.
The heat exchanger is essentially two short sections of pipe fused against each other. Though the pipes are fused, the water never mixes. Warm wastewater flows through the larger drain line. The smaller section circulates clean water near the drain line, sometimes winding around it, which forces heat to transfer from the dirty water to the clean.
Heat exchangers are used in many engineering applications, such as refrigeration, heating and air conditioning systems, power plants, chemical processing systems, food processing systems, automobile radiators, and waste heat recovery units. Air preheaters, economizers, evaporators, superheaters, condensers, and cooling towers used in a power plant are a few examples of heat exchangers.
The most commonly used heat exchangers in residential units are the Drain Water Heat Recovery Unit. A Drain Water Heat Recovery System (DWHR) recovers heat from water that would otherwise be lost down the drain. It works best with simultaneous flows like showers, where there is a demand for hot water at the same time hot water is going down the drain. The recovered heat can be used to preheat cold water going to the hot water tank, or for other purposes permitted by codes and regulations.
