Industrial steam superheaters

Optimize energy efficiency and achieve precise steam temperature control with advanced steam superheaters, designed to integrate seamlessly into waste heat recovery systems and high-pressure steam applications.

Maximizes Steam Generation Efficiency

The BORSIG steam superheater is engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring high-pressure steam, prominently utilized across chemical, petrochemical, and energy sectors. This sophisticated equipment features a vertically arranged U-tube system with a combined steam inlet/outlet chamber, facilitating effective steam superheating post waste heat recovery. The equipment is seamless in integrating with secondary reformers and reformers, making it ideal for reformed and synthesis gas processing.

With a steam capacity handling pressures up to 130 bar and temperatures up to 530°C, the superheater optimizes energy efficiency and enhances system resilience by incorporating a unique internal gas-side bypass for precise temperature regulation. Its design minimizes thermal stress through efficient radial temperature distribution across the tube sheet.

BORSIG ensures material durability by avoiding comprehensive refractory linings, focusing instead on selective insulation where necessary to prevent heat loss. Easy integration into existing systems and complementary service options further enhance operational continuity while meeting rigorous industry safety standards. BORSIG offers customization to accommodate unique process requirements, ensuring tailored solutions for efficient steam optimization and reliability in high-demand environments.
