What Unnecessary Risks are You Taking? What would you think if you saw someone using a shopping trolley as a car jack? Or a newspaper and sunglasses as an improvised welding mask? You would probably ask yourself why anyone would put themselves in that kind of danger. Here, the author explains why companies should never take any chances, especially where testing and analysis are concerned.

he Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations (DSEAR) of 2002 and the Explosive Atmosphere Directive (ATEX 137) set the minimum requirements for protection against risks from fire, explosions and similar events arising from dangerous substances used or present in the workplace. The legislation introduced more rigorous testing for operators, including regular and representative analysis of thermal fluids. Respecting The Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations (DSEAR) guidelines helps companies identify early warnings regarding process problems, helps maintain a safe and efficient working environment and save costs. Preventative maintenance and frequent testing can also help extend the life of thermal fluid. More importantly, a timely reaction to early warnings can help you avoid replacement of costly equipment and even save lives. In environments where the risks are so high, no expense should be spared to ensure legislation is respected and thorough efforts are made to keep employees and premises safe.

molecules will stick to the system internals and reduce process efficiency, unless cleaned and flushed in time. It is crucial to remember that thermal fluid does not go from being fit for use to needing replacement overnight. There is a grey area where fluids can be managed against what specialists call ‘the degradation curve’. Degradation is steady if a system is operated properly. Only as the fluid approaches the end of its practical working life, there is a gradual curve which eventually drops off very sharply. This sudden change in the quality of thermal fluids is one of the reasons why regular and preventative maintenance is so important. Diluting the thermal fluid by topping up is a cost effective and durable option only while the fluid is in the early part of the degradation curve. After the condition of the fluid has significantly deteriorated, dilution is no longer a viable alternative. It would have the same effect as putting a new torch battery into a two battery torch alongside a battery that has already

What Risk? In a nutshell, the dangers caused by the lack of preventative maintenance are rooted in the degradation of thermal fluid. Over time, heat transfer fluid breaks down through a process called ‘thermal cracking’. The fluid’s molecules are broken down into smaller particles and several types of fractions are released from this chemical reaction. The first side products of thermal cracking are light ends that have a low boiling point and are very volatile. Andy Burns Technical Business Manager Global Heat Transfer E-mail: carolinel@globalgroup.com

The second category of thermal cracking decomposition products are heavy ends, which recombine to form heavy polyaromatic molecules that usually cause fouling of the heat transfer system. As a result, carbon

been used for some time. It would not be a long term solution and would result in the system not operating at optimum capacity. That being said, the best thing to do when the thermal fluid reaches the end of its lifespan is to flush and clean the system, prior to refilling it with a fresh charge of heat transfer fluid. Hot, Closed and Circulating Despite the clarity of existing legislation and the dangers of neglecting thermal fluid analysis, companies often fail to perform the sampling DSEAR requires and carry out irrelevant tests, including ‘lube oil tests’. These are sometimes nonapplicable and do not always provide the necessary information. Sample methodology is crucial – incorrect sampling give inaccurate flash point results, which can have very dangerous consequences. Unless the fluid samples are collected when the oil is hot and circulating, they will reveal artificially high flash point values. This incorrect sampling will lead to the conclusion that the system is safe, when in reality it might not be. Inaccurate samples can have negative consequences, including decreased energy efficiency, unmanageable flash points and a dangerous working environment with risks of explosions. The sample also needs to be ‘closed’ so that no potential atmospheric particles can contaminate it or distort the results. An

open sample would also allow light ends to flash off to the atmosphere, instead of remaining in the sample, which produces unreliable readings. Test Often and Well Frequent sampling is crucial. DSEAR says manufacturers must show they are taking appropriate measures to mitigate health and safety. GHT encourages its clients to perform the eleven point test at least twice a year, every three months ideally, and even more frequently than that in some applications. Finally, testing in an accredited lab, in the correct conditions is the key to getting accurate results. As with general maintenance, identifying a problem early helps avoid complications without excessive cost or efforts. Best Practice Sampling After the samples have been taken correctly, the interpretation of data is essential and this is where Global Heat Transfer’s experience and eleven-point test takes the best-practice cake. As opposed to most companies, that only provide a seven point test, GHT looks in detail at key data to ensure the results completely reflect reality. The three main checks that Global Heat Transfer focuses on are carbon level and amount of insoluble particles, a closed flash point test and the acidity level (TAN).

Global Heat Transfer performs both types of flash point measurement: open and closed cup. The Pensky-Martens closed flash test involves the heating of test specimens in a covered brass cup at regular intervals until a flash point that spreads throughout the inside of the cup is identified. The temperature at which this spread takes place is the sample’s flash point. Because closed cup tests give lower flash point values (between five and ten degrees Celsius difference), they are a better approximation to the temperature at which the vapour pressure reaches the lower flammable limit. To ensure final result accuracy, a Seta open cup flash test is also performed on the fluid sample. An acidity level test identifies the amount of additive depletion, oxidation or acidic contamination, in a thermal fluid sample. The acid number is determined by the amount of Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) base required to neutralise the acid in one gram of an oil sample. These three main areas of testing are complemented by additional checks, including appearance, viscosity, water and ferrous content, particulate quantities and fire point testing. The data from the eleven tests forms the basis of a holistic analysis based on trend data, which results in an accurate thermal fluid evaluation. Parameters for action, caution and satisfactory levels are the key factors when conducting the result analysis. The complexity of thermal fluid testing might seem intimidating, but the importance of the process cannot be stressed enough. Respecting legal regulations, performing preventative maintenance and frequent testing are the best ways to ensure your company is not taking any unnecessary risks. Otherwise, you might as well be using newspaper and sunglasses instead of personal protective equipment. Chemical Products Finder | August-September 2016 | 15

The Ramsbottom Carbon Residue test (RCR) is a method of calculating the carbon residue in a fluid. If the carbon level (heavy ends) is too high, build-ups can occur, which will reduce the efficiency of the system, make pumps work harder and result in higher running costs for the company.

Waste Heat Recovery from Refrigeration Systems Energy conservation is a major focus point towards sustainable development and waste heat recovery is a very useful energy saving technique when a major part of energy is being wasted as heat in maximum household and industrial energy consuming units. Refrigeration has become a way of life in modern lifestyle and from small scale household units to industrial scale units, there is a large scope of waste heat recovery potential. To meet the demand of sustainable development with energy conservation and less environmental pollution there is a need to develop new technologies to recover and utilise waste heat from refrigeration systems (small or large). This article briefly highlight the need of waste heat recovery, potential of waste heat recovery in refrigeration units and introduce the latest technological developments towards waste heat recovery and utilisation from refrigeration systems.

efrigeration from small scale household units to industrial scale units has a large scope of waste heat and scientists and engineers, to meet the demand of sustainable development with energy conservation and less environmental pollution, are developing new technologies to recover and utilise waste heat from refrigeration systems (small or large). The process of refrigeration has traditionally involved a substantial use of electric energy. Energy recovery has become incredibly important in all aspects of the commercial refrigeration industry in recent years. Supermarkets in particular comprise a significant proportion of energy use as well as heat waste disposal. Supermarkets, ice rinks, and warehouse food storage facilities have each drawn the attention of concerned consumers and environmental protection agencies. Many companies have addressed these concerns with the state of art development of their energy recovery systems for refrigeration.

Waste Heat Recovery Energy conservation is a major focus point towards sustainable development and waste heat recovery is a very useful energy saving technique where the heat that is removed by the refrigeration systems or other processes can be utilised for various applications as opposed to this heat just being wasted, as is normally the case. Considerable energy savings can be achieved by re-using heat from the refrigeration plant or any other process present on a site. Depending on the specific temperature requirements of other cooling and heating loads throughout the facility, recaptured heat can be re-used directly, boosted through a heat

pump to a higher temperature, used in an absorption chiller to satisfy another cooling requirement or stored for later use. Through extensive expertise with refrigeration and other thermal systems, one can identify and assess the viability of a waste heat recovery system, design a practical and sustainable solution and manage the project through the implementation. Energy recovery is accomplished when traditionally discarded heat is rerouted for other uses in the production process. Energy recovery ventilation systems are widely popular among owners and operators of existing refrigeration equipment. Virtually any existing equipment can be modified or adapted to accommodate green standards of energy recovery. Energy recovery ventilation systems are extremely adaptable, and can be customised to suit nearly any existing equipment. These energy recovery systems are extremely useful and efficient for reducing the hazardous impacts of heat waste upon the environment. They also preserve the use of expelled energy and conserve by efficiently distributing derived resources with those that are implemented. Although compressor-driven refrigeration is far more dominant in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market, absorption chillers are slowly gaining more attraction in a variety of applications. Using heat instead of electricity to drive the cooling system, the absorption refrigeration cycle provides a way to make use of waste heat when another cooling load is present. Having much less moving parts then conventional compressor-driven chillers, an absorption chiller can be seen as a static system that runs noise free and has low maintenance and service costs. Absorption chillers operate on two fluids, an absorbent

and a refrigerant. Commercially available absorption chillers either run on the LiBrWater or Water-Ammonia working fluid pair. Each project needs to be specifically assessed to determine project feasibility. Further, introducing the use of compound refrigeration systems with integrated heat pump function has further improved its energy efficiency. The compound refrigeration systems use the entire waste heat from a commercial refrigeration installation to heat the store in winter. Up to an outside temperature of zero degrees Celsius no additional room heating is required. The compound refrigeration system is fitted with two additional compressors to ensure that this principle even functions on cold winter days when outside temperatures plunge below zero. These compressors work in winter as heat pumps and in summer function as refrigeration systems. Technological Developments The heat generated from a compressor’s activity during refrigeration process has long been emitted into the atmosphere. A simple change in technology, however, can make these compressors more powerful and efficient, and therefore able to divert that once-wasted heat for additional uses. Refrigeration technology really had not changed much in 150 years, with the result that no process had existed to convert heat released by compressors into other heating or cooling uses. Most refrigeration compressors use a traditional

male-female rotor alignment to compress gas. While this ensures a smooth operation and seamless processing of gases, there is a limit as to how much pressure such a system can handle. Refrigerants such as ammonia are one option for companies to consider, both for its efficiency and the fact it does not contribute to ozone depletion or greenhouse gas emissions. But, for demanding industrial heating and cooling applications, plant managers had shunned ammonia because no compression pumps could handle this refrigerant at high pressure levels. The solution was a single screw compressor system. The mechanism looks simple: it is simply one main rotor that intermeshes with two gate rotors on both sides. The compressor’s design actually allowed gases to be processed at very high pressures – and higher differential pressure ranges – while offering low life-cycle costs. Because of the single screw’s compressorbalanced design, a factory also benefits from lower maintenance and operational costs because of their decreased strain on the compressor’s bearings. Energy recovery is one of the most prominent concerns for consumers and corporations, particularly in the commercial refrigeration industry. Energy recovery equipment has been made available by several companies in recent decades. Industry leaders have accomplished with single units what companies earlier have tried to revolutionise in years past. Energy recovery is accomplished in two major ways. Heat is absorbed during the process of cooling, and

released at high pressures through stainless steel pipes. This effectually reduces the impacts of harmful waste, and utilised the absorbed heat as a form of energy. Energy derived from the absorption process can be derived to other components as heat recovery. Energy recovery is accomplished, and energy recovery units are efficient in reducing cost and harmful output. This allows the entire facility to function on far less energy than traditional with systems. Energy efficiency is a key issue for every facility where new refrigeration equipment is being installed. Recent developments in heat recovery systems offer the potential for reducing energy bills. Energy recovery units in refrigeration require the knowledge of experts from the initial model to the implementation process. Maintenance, modification and adaption procedures for virtually any part of the energy recovery process are offered by the innovative engineers. The model with the latest technology and system management has brought a new frontier to the refrigeration industry, particularly for commercial endeavors. Supermarkets, ice rinks, and storage warehouses are now extended accessibility to the benefits of energy recovery units for commercial refrigeration. Energy recovery ventilation systems bring a new aspect of environmentally friendly processing to the refrigeration industry.

Enhancer, the name given by GEA to this refrigeration-heat solution, convinced the contest jury of its energy-savings potential. The Energy Enhancer raises exhausted heat — which is often dissipated into the environment without being used in conventional refrigeration units — to a higher temperature, where it becomes useful energy. This can eliminate the need to produce heat by gas-fired, hot-water heaters or steam generators. The solution uses an ammonia heat pump to raise the temperature of the heat exhausted from refrigeration compressors (originally emitted at about 350C) to a level of 800C, which can be effectively used as a heat source for processes throughout the plant. This enables efficient use of heat in, for example, milk pasteurisation, French fries production (blanching) and meat processing (cleaning machines). The heat can also be used anywhere else it is needed, such as in heating the plant’s environment. This enables not only significant reduction in operating costs, but also leads to a large reduction in CO2 emissions. Waste Heat Recovery System for Domestic Refrigerator An attempt has been made to utilise waste heat from condenser of refrigerator. This heat can be used for number of domestic and industrial purposes. The study has shown that such a system is technically feasible and economically viable. Refrigerator which is been previously made exert a lot of amount heat through condenser to overcome this wastage of heat. This heat is utilised for heating water. A standard topology shows the unit connected to an existing hot water tank (pump, controls and special fittings are not shown). The unit uses the recovered heat to keep the water temperature above the tank’s thermostat set-point so that the

tank heating element or burner does not need to operate. Hot refrigerant gas from the compressor enters and flows in the opposite direction as the water flow. The water picks up the heat from the refrigerant gas, cooling the gas and heating the water. The excess heat that previously would have been thrown away by the condenser is recycled. The remote unit mounts outdoors (or indoors if desired) and will usually be installed on an exterior wall somewhere near the compressor. There are two pairs of inlet/outlet connections on the unit. One inlet/outlet pair is for the compressor side and the other pair is for the hot water side. Inside the unit there is a small pump, sensor controls and a double helix allcopper vented double-wall heat exchanger that transfers the heat from the refrigerant (compressor side) to the hot water side. The system connects to the compressor through standard refrigeration lines, and connects to the hot water tank through standard insulated plumbing pipe, PEX, etc. The pump circulates water from the tank, through the heat exchanger, and then back to the tank. The heat exchanger efficiently transfers the compressors high temperature waste heat to the water circuit of the unit. Dual-circuit units operate the same way, except they can connect to two adjacent compressors at the same time while connected to a single hot water tank. Waste Heat Recovery with Industrial Heat Pumps Industrial refrigeration systems reject a significant quantity of waste heat to the atmosphere. Heat pumps can capture this waste heat efficiently and use it to reduce the fossil fuels consumed to heat water. Industrial heat pumps are environmentally friendly and economical, allowing end-users to make the most of their energy resources. Industrial ammonia heat pumps offer endusers a comprehensive sustainable solution by reducing energy consumption, water, waste water, CO 2 emissions and operating costs. They are environmentally friendly as ammonia is a natural refrigerant with an Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of zero and a global Warming Potential (GWP) of zero. Industrial heat pumps provide energy conservation, by converting the heat energy removed by ammonia refrigeration

systems and transforming it into beneficial heat for use in satisfying plant hot water requirements. This source of energy is renewable as the heat is naturally occurring within food products and is made available through food preservation by the process of refrigeration, a reusable energy source. Ammonia heat pumps reduce operating costs. Ammonia refrigeration systems absorb heat from products, processes, equipment, people, building heat gains and infiltration, and then reject it as waste heat to the atmosphere through, typically, evaporative condensers. The majority of the heat delivered by heat pumps comes from the heat extracted from these cooling loads. An incremental amount of heat delivered by heat pumps comes from the electric energy consumed in converting the low grade waste heat into high temperature useable heat. An additional benefit of industrial heat pumps, applied as retrofits to existing systems, is that they add condensing capacity to systems. Industrial heat pumps divert load away from evaporative condensers, allowing existing system compressors to operate more efficiently at lower condensing pressures. Conclusion Heat recovery is the collection and reuse of heat arising from any process that would otherwise be lost. The process might be inherent to a building, such as space heating, ventilation and so on, or could be something carried out as part of business activity, such as the use of ovens, furnaces and the like. Heat recovery can help to reduce the overall energy consumption of the process itself, or provide useful heat for other purposes. Waste heat recovery has emerged as an effective way of increasing energy efficiency at factories where refrigeration is crucial. Any energy savings is important because even though commonly used refrigerants such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) do not deplete the ozone level as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) did a generation ago, HFCs still pose GWP.

n this world, there are as many types of waste waters as there are industrially produced goods and manufacturing processes. Waste waters are a natural consequence of human activity. Where people live and work, waste waters will always be found. Waste water from industrial production can contain an unspeakable variety of different inorganic and organic chemicals, in all combinations and concentration levels. The whole spectra of synthetic and natural chemicals can be found in these streams. Waste waters vary in composition in step with their related production processes. The concentration levels of these ingredients, however, are not always so clearly defined. They vary in ranges according to the fluctuations in the production processes and are normally characterized by average, minimum or by peak values.

of composition, is different, depending on the location where it appears. For all of these reasons, each waste water is unique. Unique in its composition, in the way it changes its properties, and in its relation to its environment. Getting a clear picture of a waste water is not an easy job. One has to go through a thorough analysis to clarify its nature. Thereby a chemical analysis is just the first step of a much more work intensive project. To find these solutions, waste water specialists require a well-equipped toolbox, containing different unit-operations, Each has to be used and combined in the most efficient possible way to achieve a technically, economically and ecologically useful solution. It is often possible to name several methods at first glance. For instance, in the case of a water stream polluted with the toxic organic compound

6) Adsorption with ion exchangers 7) Biologic degradation The challenge now is to choose the most effective, inexpensive, and most ecologically relevant method under the given frame conditions. This task almost always involves laboratory testing, and often pilot testing. Only by means of laboratory testing can the interested parties be sure that the planned treatment process will work at the end of the day. At the same time it is possible to generate useful data for the design of a full-scale unit.

phenol, the following methods can be applied to remove it from the water: 1) Adsorption with activated carbon 2) Steam stripping or distillation 3) Wet oxidation 4) Reverse osmosis 5) Extraction with organic liquid/liquid extractants

It does not take much to test ion exchange resins in laboratory scale. A pump and a glass-column are most important. The rest is standard equipment.

Waste water is a natural consequence of human activity

Waste water streams are often combined in networks and can influence one another. In between they are stored, treated, mixed, further treated, etc. Usually they are running through several pipelines, tanks and treatment units before they are finally discharged into the environment. Waste waters are discharged into a variety of environments with different geological and ecological characteristics. In addition to their scientific characteristics, these environments have different political systems, with different regulations, and different levels of infra-structure sophistication. As a result, the significance of an individual waste water, independent

about 50 applications related to all kinds of technology that are designed to keep the environment clean and to reduce the content of pollutants in goods intended for direct human consumption. The following are examples of such applications: The most classical application in the environmental protection field is the treatment of waste water to remove all kinds of heavy metals and other toxic ingredients. Recycling of rinse water is a similar application. Rinse water here means water used to cleanse the processed surfaces of printed circuit boards, plated metals, photographic films, textile fabrics, ceramics and glass products, etc. Let us discuss about the couple of Case Studies which are successfully running over more than 4 years in India on waste water recycling applications using Lewatit Ion Exchange resins.

ND. The cycle is stopped when the Chrome is detected at the outlet of second column. Economic considerations indicated specific operating costs in a range of a few Euro Cents per cubic-meter of water, including capital cost and depreciation of investment cost. These resins are operating since last 1 year and have been regenerated several times. The regeneration efficiency of the resin has been proven as there is not a drop in the operating cycle time since the first cycle. The user is satisfied to get the cost benefit and also a considerable cost saving in treatment of waste water. The ROI period is only 6 months. The user gets several benefits as listed below: 1) Reduced consumption of fresh water 2) No treatment cost for the raw water treatment. 3) Chromic Acid Recovery

Fluoride concentrations of less than one milligram per litre can easily be achieved by utilization of a new adsorption method based on a regenerable aluminum doped chelating resin. A case study illustrates practical aspects of the implementation and lab data gives more technical background on important parameters for process design.

Fluoride Removal from Waste Water

A unit containing special chelating resin has been installed in a major chemical manufacturing company in Gujarat. It has

been reliably treating the full effluent stream of a production facility for more than a year and is still operating successfully. The plant has consistently maintained the fluoride level in the treated effluent to less than 1 mg/l. A photo of the plant is shown on the next page. The concept of the plant comprises initial precipitation of the fluoride with CaCl 2 followed by filtration. The filtrate is polished with the ion exchanger. The effluent stream flow is around 1.5 m³/h. The CaCl 2 precipitation process reduces the fluoride content from around 100 mg/l down to 8 – 18 mg/l. In this plant there is a single ion exchange filter, containing 300 litres of resin. It can be concluded from the plant operating data, fluoride at 1 ppm occurred after 286 BV, which equals 57 hours of operation. With an influent fluoride concentration of 9 mg/l, the operating capacity of the filter is therefore about 2.6 grams of fluoride adsorbed per litre of resin. After break through the filter is regenerated by pumping 3 BV of a 5.5% AlCl 3 solution down through the bed at 5 BV/h. The operation is followed by a 10 min upstream rinse at 10 m/h linear velocity and a final rinse by 2.5 BV of clean water at 5 BV/h. The ion exchange waste water (comprising spent regenerant, backwash and finalrinse water) is discharged into a cone shaped tank equipped with an agitator, pH control and CaCl 2, H 2SO 4 and NaOH dosage. Fluoride and aluminum are precipitated and the suspended particles are settled. The sludge is then thickened and finally dewatered in a filter press. The user of the plant takes advantage from the following benefits: a) Able to safely meet the pollution control board norms for waste water discharge b) Synergism with the upstream precipitation unit: No additional waste stream generated, as the spent regenerant from the ion exchanger is treated using the existing on-site process c) Regenerable adsorber material that can stay in place for several years

Fluoride selective ion exchanger operated at a major chemicals manufacturing company in Gujarat.

Ion Exchange Resins are not only restricted to 100% aqueous fluids. However, they can also be used to recycle chemicals such as spent concentrated acids or highly concentrated salt containing electrolytes such as widely used in the surface plating industry. In principle, all kinds of process solutions that are contaminated by trace impurities during their use, can be candidates for being recycled via ion exchange filters. These include cooling water, metal-working or drilling fluids, underground oil exploitation fluids, some types of organic solvents and acids, etc. Recycling of these process streams allows not only the recovery and reuse of clean water or chemicals, at the same time, it reduces the amount of waste discharged into the environment.

Principle of Ion Exchange in waste treatment

First of all, the remediation of groundwater has to be named in this context. Secondly, polluted lakes or tailing ponds resulting from mining or other industrial activities can be remediated by ion exchange filters. Polluted soil is cleaned by so called “heap leaching” or “in-situ-leaching” whereby the recycled washing fluid is cleaned via ion exchangers. Pre-treatment of water used in agriculture for the purpose of watering plants (irrigation), growing of marine animals or for the make-up of animal food helps to keep pollutants away from our food. At the same time, applied in water works or “point of entry” cartridge filters, ion exchangers can be used as highly efficient filters for removing different types of trace pollutants from our potable water. Another powerful strategy in environmental protection is to transform technical production processes into environmentally-friendly processes, also known as “process-integrated environmental protection”. The most representative example of a development of this kind can be found in the production of chlorine, where the process was switched from so-called “mercury cells” to “membrane electrolyzers”. This innovative

technology could only be realized by the application of selective ion exchangers that protect the sensitive membranes from being poisoned by trace impurities present in the processed brine. Other examples can be found in new innovative mining technologies that aim to increase the yield of metal from ore extracts. At the same time this helps to save energy and reduces the discharge of pollutants (eg. heavy metals and toxic organic solvents) into the environment. New types of environmentally compatible synthesis can be carried out by enzymes that are immobilized on ion exchange beads.

While the above mentioned applications help to prevent harm to the environment, the following applications can be used to repair a polluted environment and to act as a filter between a polluted environment and human beings.

Finally, the use of environment-friendly energy sources is a way to prevent air pollution and also to overcome global warming. Ion exchangers can be applied to remove impurities from environmentallyfriendly fuels such as bio-diesel (glycerine) and bio-ethanol (sulphur) or natural gas (mercury). Applications relating to the production of natural gas by anaerobic digestion of organic materials are under investigation. Ion exchange resins are already in use to produce high-purity silica required for the production of solar panels. Currently they are also under investigation regarding a particular application within fuel cell reactors. ◘

Tube Bundle types and allocation of tube side passes plays a vital role in Thermal Design of ACHE. Out of various options available for Tube Bundle types, some are widely used as a hereditary engineering practices while some are paid less attention. This case study evaluates the effect of Tube Bundle type selection on Thermal Design and also an attempt is made to select an optimum Thermal Design based on Overall Cost Factors.

n the areas of heat transfer operations, to deliver the best thermal design of Air Cooled Heat Exchanger (ACHE), many EPC companies are extensively using thermal design software. Typically, these heat exchanger design software have Tube Bundle type as an input required under Tube Bundle geometry. This input makes an ACHE specification more correct in terms of tube side pass arrangement and enables an ACHE vendor to fabricate tube bundles and their partitions with better understanding. In thermal design, number of tube side passes is an important factor for tube side performance and its allocation plays vital role in optimising designs. To define tube pass configuration, various options are available in thermal design software for selection of Tube Bundle types:

Rows: The tube side passes are allocated row wise. Extra rows, if any, will be allocated to first pass. Design software selects this type by default if specified passes are less than or equal to number of tube rows. Side-by-Side: The tube side passes are allocated in vertical planes and in a side-by-side manner. Rows/Side-by-Side: 2nd to ‘N’ number of passes are arranged in last row in side-by-side manner. And rest of the rows will form first pass. Equal Count: This configuration keeps equal tube count per pass. Extra tubes, if any, will be allocated to first pass. Design software selects this type by default if specified passes are more than number of tube rows.

Convection: It is commonly seen in Economisers than ACHEs. Rows with Defined Passes (User defined): This is an alternative means of specifying different tube pass configurations in which tube pass configuration is maintained even when the number of tubes per row is modified. It provides complete view of bundle cross-section, which can be utilised to change type of tubes for a selected row. However, this option is rarely seen in thermal designs as a preliminary selection of Tube Bundle type. Out of the various Tube Bundle types, ‘Side-by-Side’ and ‘Rows/Side-bySide’ are seldom used by Engineers in thermal designs with a consideration that these Tube Bundles types are difficult to fabricate. However, most of the ACHE vendors give guarantee to fabricate all types of Tube Bundles. On the other hand, Tube Bundle types – ‘Rows’ and ‘Equal Count’ are widely used as a hereditary engineering practice in numerous thermal designs and also observed in many vendors’ technical offers. In this context, a Case Study has been carried out to understand the effect of Tube Bundle type selection on various parameters which contribute to an optimum thermal design and how the best thermal design can be identified based on CAPEX and OPEX of ACHE. CASE STUDY Quench water is to be cooled from 127oC to 60oC in ACHE with an ambient air temperature of 36oC. Quench water flow is 1,40,000 kg/hr. Fouling resistance of 0.00018 m2-hr-C/kcal is considered. The allowable tube side pressure drop is 0.7 kg/cm 2 .

Number of tube rows is specified and tube side passes are allocated with some initial design judgment and trial and error method till there are no warnings and any runtime errors in output summary.

The output parameters such as HTC, tube side P, tube count, power consumed, cost factor and ratio of HTC to tube side ’P are noted. Tube Bundle type is then changed for another option and thermal design is further carried out by repeating steps 1 to 4. From above steps, thermal design results for different Tube Bundle types having same heat exchanger geometry are populated in Table 2 for comparison. Note that, Table 2 results are not yet optimised thus, they are used for basic judgment and preliminary selection of Tube Bundle type. Once preliminary selection of Tube Bundle type is done with basic judgment, thermal designs from Table 2 are optimised by varying Heat exchanger geometry, ie, number of tube rows, number of tube side passes, tube length and bundle width by repeating steps 1 to 4 till percentage overdesign is 10 per cent. Special attention is provided on tube side ’P while optimising the thermal designs, since it is recommended to utilise allowable Tube side ’P as fully as possible for minimal tube side fouling and thereby less maintenance cost.

Analysis and Results Selection of the most optimised design from the various Tube Bundle types is carried out on the basis of overall cost of ACHE, which includes both CAPEX and OPEX: Note that following points are taken into consideration for estimation of CAPEX and OPEX. CAPEX: It includes cost of all exchanger geometrical parameters such as Bundle Width, Tube Length, Tube Count and Tube Metal Cost, etc. OPEX: From Power Consumption per fan, OPEX can be determined by multiplying with electricity cost. Note that, the Cost Factors reported in above tables are selected from Thermal Design Software results and are only indicators of CAPEX and excludes OPEX.

These optimised thermal Designs for different Tube Bundle types are populated in Table 3 for the finalisation of design.

Selection of Best Thermal Design 1) Preliminary selection for suitable thermal design is made on the basis of results populated in Table 2 for different tube bundle types having same exchanger geometry. Though these designs are not optimum, % overdesign factor gives first path forward towards optimisation. 2) It is observed from Table 2 that the power consumption and cost factor for various tube bundle types are almost in the same range irrespective of Tube Bundle type selection. However, % overdesign varies significantly. For Option - 1 (Equal Count), it is ~ 41 per cent, whereas for Option – 3 (Rows/ Side-by-Side) it is only 0.5%. Thus, selection of Tube Bundle type plays vital role. In this scenario, thermal designs with bundle types of Equal Count and Rows can be further shrunk to get nearly 10 per cent overdesign which will be the cost and performance effective heat exchanger. Thus, from Table 2, ‘Equal Count’ and ‘Rows’ are the preliminary selections of Tube Bundle types. Chemical Products Finder | August-September 2016 | 23

Table 2 & 3: Thermal Design Comparison for Different Tube Bundle Types

From optimised thermal design results populated in Table – 3, Option 3 (Rows/ Side-by-Side) can be eliminated from discussion, since it offers considerably low HTC as compared to other designs. Even though power consumption is minimum in this case, due to very low HTC, it demands higher exchanger area and hence highest cost factor. Further it is also not a good practice to specify Rows/Side-by-Side as a Tube Bundle type for sensible cooling applications but recommended for condensing services, in which vapour volumetric flow rate is higher at inlet hence, more number of tubes per pass are allocated to have less ’P. Once vapours get condensed its volumetric flow rate reduces so number of tubes per pass can be lowered to get better HTC. Selection of best design from remaining options is slightly tricky. The ratio of HTC to Tube side ’P is considered for this selection since it is

one of the best indicators to judge the most optimised thermal design. Higher ratio tends to reduce the heat transfer area and thereby CAPEX. Thus, Option – 2 (Rows) with higher ratio of HTC to Tube side P seems to be the optimised design amongst all. Further, its minimum geometry in terms of the Tube Bundle width leads to lowest Cost Factor.

The only limitation of Option – 2 (Rows) is the number of tube side passes. Typically, even numbers of tube side passes are recommended in Air Cooled Heat Exchanger, in order to avoid the routing of outlet piping all along the length of the heat exchanger. However, such layout constraints shall be finalised based on concurrence with layout/piping engineer. In the view of above analysis, best thermal design on the basis of overall cost of an exchanger can be determined as follows: Reported cost factors from Table-3, are

compared for their relative percentage, by assigning lowest cost factor as 1 and other cost factors as percentage of 1 as shown in Table – 4. These relative percentage cost factors are helpful in basic judgment of relative CAPEX. Similarly, for OPEX, power consumption per fan from Table 3, are compared for their relative percentage. Now, the relative overall cost factor can be determined by multiplying their relative percentages of CAPEX and OPEX as shown in Table – 6. As a result, on Overall cost basis, Option 2 (Rows) with lowest overall cost factor, seems to be best thermal design amongst various Tube Bundle types for given sensible cooling applications. Conclusion While defining Tube Pass configurations for sensible cooling services, it is observed through this Case Study that ‘Rows/Side-by-Side’ and ‘Side-by-Side’ as Tube Bundle types are not viable

Thermal designs were further analysed for their relative CAPEX, OPEX and best Thermal Design is selected on overall cost basis. Thus, a systematic and comprehensive approach is essential keeping in mind the impact of all design parameter on the CAPEX and OPEX of the ACHE. Therefore, instead of following the hereditary engineering practices, there is a need to understand all the Tube Bundle type configurations before finalising on an ACHE design. Abbreviations ACHE – Air Cooled Heat Exchanger; EPC – Engineering, Procurement Construction; CAPEX – Capital Expenditure; OPEX – Operating Expenditure; HTC – Heat Transfer Coefficient; and P – Pressure Drop.

options due to the lower heat transfer coefficient and higher heat transfer area. On the other hand, ‘Equal Count’ and ‘Rows’ type of Tube Bundles were found to be suitable during preliminary

selection using basic judgment. Further, on optimisation of exchanger geometry, higher ratio of HTC to Tube side ’P, was a key parameter in deciding the optimized thermal design.

MKPL is designed for operating at up to +200°C, the MKPL pump is built for safety in handling corrosive fluids in high temperature applications. Its connection dimensions and performance data conform to DIN EN ISO 2858, making the MKPL easy to retrofit into any installation to replace old pumps. The MKPL-S features an integral priming chamber in the casing. A separate priming tank is not necessary because the pump evacuates the suction line itself by creating a vacuum. The MKPL-S can even readily pump entrained air in the suction line while running, thus increasing reliability of operation. This pump achieves suction lifts up to 8.5 m.

HIGH-PRESSURE PUMPS

LOOP REACTOR

High-pressure pumps from SRS Pumps are manufactured with Advanced Pump Technology. Their pumps are horizontal, simplex or triplex positive displacement plunger pumps. Their high-pressure equipment is the most versatile, time-and-cost-effective solution for cleaning, cutting, removing, descaling, testing, spraying, etc.

The HLE loop reactor is an advanced version of a traditional gas liquid induction reactor (hydrogenator) wherein a concept of external heat exchanger is incorporated to reduce the reaction time. The HLE loop reactor consists of a reactor – heat exchanger – external/ internal pump and sequencing automation for sensing and control.

Pump drive end assemblies are of rugged construction with high quality materials and heavy duty taper roller bearings. Bearings are lubricated by splash lubrication. Pumps are designed to permit rapid and economical maintenance, particularly regarding plunger, packing and valves are manufactured to ensure accurate alignment on reassembly. Liquid ends can be offered in SS-304, SS-316, SS-316 L, Hastalloy B or C, Alloy 20, etc. Fluid can be accelerated to high velocities through a nozzle by the application of sufficient hydraulic high-pressure (HP). Hydraulic HP is proportional to the product of fluid pressure and the volume delivered. Fluid velocity is proportional to the pressure developed through a nozzle orifice. The impact of high pressure fluid jets can remove deposits which defy mechanical cutting tools, without any damage to underlying materials by correct selection of nozzles, accessories and power sources. Interchangeable conversion kits are available for all pump units so that the pressure/volume relationship can be altered to suit a particular operation without altering the pump speed, thus maintaining efficient working of the drive motors.

The hydrogenation reactions are generally very exothermic in nature. The internal coils/double coils in hydrogenators conventionally used, have limited heat transfer area to remove the heat of reactions. Hence, to control the reaction temperature, hydrogen supply need to be cut-off several times which results in slow and longer completion of hydrogenation reactions. In HLE loop reactor, due to incorporation of external arrangement to remove heat, via the heat exchanger, there is no limitation in the heat transfer area. The reaction can be continued without interruption, resulting in significantly faster and shorter reaction time. The reaction rate is further enhanced by the extremely high mass transfer, which becomes possible due to high flow rates and specifically designed nozzle for gas induction. HLE has a pilot loop reactor with a working capacity of 120 litres designed to operate at 40 kg/cm 2. Customers can avail benefit of their pilot facility by undertaking a suitability check prior to adopting the loop reactor.

DOUBLE ACTING PLUNGER PUMPS Double acting plunger pump is plunger type dosing pump, which the working fluid acts alternately on both sides of the piston. This one as it fills one end of the liquid chamber is discharging liquid from the other end of the chamber. On the return stroke, the end of the chamber just emptied is filled and end just filled is emptied. Each stroke of the piston fills one chamber and empties another, which nearly doubles the flow rate over a singleacting plunger pump. This pump can be used for high precision injections with pulse rates of ±1%.

POLYAMIDE 6 FOR ENGINE OIL PAN The engine oil pan for one of the latest car consists of an upper and a lower part made from 30 per cent glass fiber-reinforced Durethan BKV 30 H2.0 from LANXESS. The upper part is screw-connected to a pipeline carrier that is also made from polyamide 6. Using plastic instead of aluminium means that numerous functions can be shaped directly during injection moulding, thereby integrating them into the component. This has helped to reduce the number of separate parts that need to be manufactured and mounted for the oil pan, and key work steps needed in the final assembly of the engine has also been cut. Furthermore, the oil return lines of the turbocharger, the oil separator and the air-oil separator are combined in the pipeline carrier. Polyamide 6 has helped to reduce the weight of the upper and lower sections of the oil pan. Overall, the oil pan is more lighter than its aluminum predecessor, due to the lower density of the plastic and the optimized wall thicknesses. A key argument in favour of the oil pan using injection moulding was the huge potential that the process offers for integrating functions and thereby cutting costs. The lower energy costs are another benefit in favour of manufacturing injection-moulded parts.

Brazil, South America: NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has announced that it has launched a new line of single-stage helical inline gearboxes with a NORDBLOC.1 light alloy case at the 2016 Hannover Messe exhibition. The gear unit series is particularly suited to pump, agitator, fan, and intra-logistics applications. NORD has worked closely with renowned manufacturers in these fields throughout the development process. Above all, these new gears achieve a very high torsional rigidity through a robust design that was thoroughly tested, amongst others with abruptly increased pump pressures and shaft vibration. In high-speed applications, these helical inline gearboxes are a more powerful solution than two-stage units. Highly precise manufacturing and high-quality materials also ensure the products are very lightweight, smooth-running, and exceptionally efficient. The nsd tupH surface treatment is optionally available to make the units highly resistant to corrosion, for instance for long-term use in aggressive ambient atmospheres. IEC and NEMA motor mounting options as well as various shaft, bearing, and lubrication variants enable versatile bespoke configurations. The new NORDBLOC.1 products will initially be available in five sizes.Abest re adhus, es peres moltudam ve, intio, quidin Etrare firtere, conve, que et corbefa ctabeme plieri praestidiis rei im et vis; non sideri sente ac vitris a sena, cricaus, nos priam omno.

Georgia, USA: ExxonMobil has announced that researchers from ExxonMobil and the Georgia Institute of Technology have revealed a new form of plastics making that could diminish manufacturing costs and emissions. The novel system, which was published in the academic journal Science, would supposedly save the petrochemicals industry US$2 billion, and lower the emissions equivalent to the emissions from about 5 million U.S. homes. Mike Kerby, Corporate Strategic Research Manager, Exxon Mobil said that, “In effect, we’d be using a filter with microscopic holes to do what an massive amount of heat and energy currently do in a chemical process alike to that found in oil refining.” Further testing is needed, but Exxon Mobil is poised with the results thus far and is interested in following the technology for a wider global implementation, he further added. The petrochemicals industry in the U.S. has experienced a boom following the spike in fracking that began nearly a decade ago. This has generated increased development of infrastructure in several U.S. Gulf states including planned and future projects, which the American Chemistry Council estimates will create around 70,000 jobs. One of these plans was announced by Exxon Mobil and the state-owned Saudi Arabia Basic Industries Corp. for the construction of a multibillion-dollar petrochemical complex either in Texas or Louisiana.

Magdeburg–Barleben, Germany: For the lubrication of compressors in air-conditioning systems, refrigerant oils circulate in the refrigeration cycle, however, they reduce the cooling effectiveness. Therefore, continuous monitoring of the oil content is especially important in the development of air-conditioning systems in order to determine the optimum oil circulation ratio that depends on the used refrigerant, compressor and process conditions. The concentration measurement of oil in the refrigerant places high demands on the analysis. On the one hand, there are high pressures, which may be up to 150 bar in case of CO2. With the LiquiSonic® OCR analyzer by SensoTech, specifically designed for refrigerant applications, the oil circulation ratio in the refrigerant can be monitored online and directly in the process using sonic velocity measurement. The LiquiSonic® sensor is installed in the pipeline and combined with a pressure transducer. Additionally, two Pt1000 temperature probes are integrated in the sensor, so that from the values sonic velocity, temperature and pressure the temperature- and pressure-compensated oil concentration can be calculated in real time.

The Government allowed the sale of Bio-diesel (B100) by private manufacturers to bulk consumers like Railways, State Transport Corporations and other bulk consumers. Also, retailing of biodiesel blended diesel by Public Sector Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) has started on the same day. As a result, the biodiesel procurement by Public Sector OMCs has started. 1.32 crore litre Biodiesel (B100) has been procured by Public Sector OMCs. During the current Financial Year also, OMCs have finalised a quantity of 4.01 crore litres of biodiesel for the period of April – September, 2016.

New Delhi, India: Production of fertilizers in the country is not sufficient to meet the local demand. There is gap between domestic production and demand. The gap is met through imports. The details of production of major fertilizers in the country during last two years are given below:Urea is the only fertilizer under statutory price control and its import is restricted and permitted through State Trading Enterprises ( STEs), namely Metals and Mineral Trading Corporation of India (MMTC), State Trading Corporation Limited (STC) and Indian Potash Limited (IPL), under the Foreign Trade Policy of the Government. Urea for direct agricultural use is imported on Government account to bridge the gap between assessed demand and indigenous production. Government is also importing approximately 20 Lakh Metric Tonnes urea from Oman India Fertilizer Company (OMIFCO) under a Long Term Urea off Take Agreement (UOTA) between GOI & OMIFCO. Import of fertilizers (other than Urea) is free, commonly known as Open General License (OGL). Various companies import these fertilizers as per their commercial judgment. Muriate of Potash (MOP) is the only fertilizer, whose demand is fully met through imports as there are no viable sources of MOP in the country. This information was given by the Minister of State (MoS) in the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers Mansukh L Mandaviya in the Rajya Sabha.

Mumbai, India: The industrial community the world over are emphasizing on reducing greenhouse emissions; especially in the transportation sector they intended to curb large scale emissions of pollutants by implementing stringent emission standards. These emission standards adopted by various countries mandated that the fuel combustion equipment in vehicles to undergo drastic design changes and also by using cleaner fuels from the refineries with reduced sulphur content. However, refining fuels with can satisfy stringent pollution control norms (i.e. to produce cleaner fuels) are the biggest challenge being faced by refineries across the globe. The current emission standard EURO VI or equivalent requires 10 ppm sulphur content which is an even greater challenge for the global refiners. Traditionally, all fossil fuels have sulphur content which needs to be de-sulphurised using various refining processes like hydrotreating and hydrocracking. The difficulty is that the process of reducing sulphur involves high pressure and high temperature and further compounded by intermixing of fluids in gasketed heat exchangers causing sulphur slippage in the refining process by using the existing equipment. So this requirement for clean fuels compels the refineries to revamp their existing hydro cracker and hydro treating units or set up new modules which enable them to produce fuel with 10 ppm sulphur content. To achieve this task the refineries need a unique heat exchanger which can operate under high temperature and high pressure and at the same time the heat exchanger should not allow intermixing of fluids. Also due to its use in the dirty service it should provide ease of maintenance. This challenge can be overcome by the refining world by turning to essentially a highly effective Screw Plug Heat Exchanger designed and manufactured by TEMA. Breech Lock or Screw Plug Exchangers are basically U-tube exchangers. The channel side operates at high temperature and pressure and it has a threaded end closure. In some designs, the shell side may also be at high pressure. The tube bundle is removable without having to dismantle the channel or disconnect the nozzles from the pipeline. Thus screw plug exchangers help to reduce fabrication cost; moreover its design is such that it enables quick and effortless in-service maintenance. The major problems encountered with the use of such end closures were •

Jamming of the threaded plug, due to “Bell Mouthing”

•

Leakage through the tubesheet gasket.

These issues are successfully resolved with the modified Screw Plug Heat Exchanger design by TEMA. There are around 150 TEMA-make Screw Plug Heat Exchangers in service all around the world. With the emphasis on clean fuels and adherence to EURO VI or equivalent emission standards are around the globe this new approach to refining clean fuels using Screw Plug Heat Exchanger is the only way out.

Technology News

New Delhi, India: Government has announced that it has sanctioned `1,554 crore R&D project to develop advanced ultrasuper critical (AUSC) technology for thermal power plants, a step to safeguard energy security. The CCEA "sanctioned a proposal of R&D project for development of Advanced Ultra Super Critical (AUSC) technology for thermal power plant with an estimated cost of ` 1,554 crore and providing one time budgetary support of ` 900 crore spread over a period of three years, commencing from 2017-18, to be provided as plan Gross Budgetary Support to BHEL for implementation of the R&D project," Ministry of Heavy Industry and Public Enterprises said in a statement. A consortium of three government entities -- Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL), Indira Gandhi Centre of Atomic Research (IGCAR) and NTPC -- have proposed a R&D project for development of AUSC technology for thermal power plants of future, foreseeing reduced coal consumption as well as Carbon Di-Oxide (CO2) emission, it said. The project is articulated with a timecycle of two and a half years, with an estimated cost of ` 1,554 crore, with a contribution of ` 270 crore from BHEL, ` 50 crore from NTPC, ` 234 crore from IGCAR,` 100 crore from Department of Science and Technology (DST). Balance amount of ` 900 crore will be funded by Department of Heavy Industry (DHI) as grant, the statement said. The project will allow Indian industries to design, manufacture and commission higher efficiency coal-fired power plants with indigenously developed technology and manufacturing processes. This will be the first time large power plant equipment will be manufactured with advanced technologies, but without any technological collaboration/licensing agreement with foreign companies. "The proposed technology is still in research stage. It is still not developed and demonstrated anywhere in the world," it said. The consortium partners are working on the project from the basics of material development, characterisation of alloys for high temperature and high pressure applications, basic principles of thermal engineering useful in design from scratch for large equipment like boiler among others. Power generation from coal contributes to about 38 percent of CO2 pollution in the atmosphere. Twenty percent reduction in CO2 emission at source combined with 20 percent saving in coal consumption compared to a sub-critical plant and by about 11 per cent compared to a supercritical plant are the primary reasons justifying this project. Use of this technology in all future large power plants will ensure energy security for the country for a longer period, along with a greener environment.
