High-pressure preheaters for power plants

Optimize your power plant’s efficiency by efficiently preheating feedwater, reducing fuel consumption, and alleviating boiler pressure with state-of-the-art high-pressure preheaters designed for seamless integration into your operation.

Preheats and Efficiently Transfers Heat

The HP and LP Preheaters and Special Vessels from BORSIG Process Heat Exchanger GmbH offer a high-precision solution for chemical and power plant applications. Utilizing superheated steam extraction and efficient heat transfer, these preheaters increase the feed water temperature, optimizing the steam cycle and reducing boiler energy demands. This system is ideal for processing feed water in high-pressure zones before entering boilers, significantly enhancing thermal efficiency across operations. Ideal for applications in oil refineries, petrochemical, and chemical industries, this equipment supports the production of key end-products like gasoline, ethylene, and vinyl chloride. Built to handle continuous, high-speed operations, these preheaters are offered with material options that ensure corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance. Integration into existing systems is seamless, with customizable solutions tailored to specific process conditions.
