Synthesis gas waste heat boiler for ammonia plants
Enhance your ammonia production with cutting-edge waste heat recovery that optimizes efficiency by reducing energy loss in the synthesis gas loop, offering you reliable heat exchange and temperature control.
Recovers Heat and Controls Gas Flow
The Synthesis Gas Waste Heat Boiler from BORSIG Process Heat Exchanger GmbH is engineered for high-efficiency heat recovery and gas flow control in ammonia plants. Featuring a patented hot-cold U-tube configuration, it minimizes the risk of hydrogen embrittlement and crevice corrosion, ensuring durability under high-pressure operations up to 350 bar. The boiler is versatile, suitable for both vertical and horizontal installations, and can include integrated components like steam drums and feed water pre-heaters upon customer request. It is ideal for applications in ammonia production, hydrogen generation, and industrial gas recovery, contributing to the manufacture of end-products such as methanol and fertilizers. Designed for continuous high-temperature operation, it prioritizes safety and efficiency, with austenitic materials lining the gas chambers for optimal thermal management. The unit integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, bolstering energy recovery and emission control, while offering customization options for specific operational needs.
