Product Description
Plate and shell heat exchangers are widely used in the oil and fat industry, especially in the deodorization process.
Application
Deodorization is a vacuum steam distillation process, where steam is used at very low pressure and relatively high temperature (240-260℃) to remove odor from edible oils.
Challenge:
Steam consumption is one of the biggest operating cost drivers, and the deodorization stage consumes up to 60% of the entire unit's steam consumption. Therefore, adopting a heat recovery system in modern deodorization processes has significant economic benefits.
Solution:
Utilizing a heat exchanger to recover the heat from deodorization stage can preheat the raw material oil, which can significantly reduce the consumption of steam and cooling water.
Our plate and shell heat exchangers are specially designed for the oil and fat industry, with high efficiency heat transfer and compact structure. They are made of high-quality stainless steel, with a high-pressure resistance rating, making them suitable for various operating conditions.
Through the efficient heat transfer of our plate and shell heat exchangers, the heat from the deodorization stage can be recovered and used to preheat the raw material oil, which can significantly reduce the consumption of steam and cooling water, improving the overall efficiency of the deodorization process.
