    Tubular Airheater Design

    Bjaffa, In terms of the operation, having a thicker tube wall will decrease the ID of your tubes, reducing the total surface area available for gas flow. Since air heaters are designed with some extra surface area to allow for tube plugging, there shouldn't be a problem. By using those tubes...

    Cooling Water Quality

    Good day, We currently use surface water as a cooling medium for our turbine condensers. The water is passed through a strainer prior to being fed to the condenser. These strainers are frequently plugging, and it was suggested to increase the mesh size to reduce the frequency of pluggage...

    HCl vs SO4H2 for demin water plant regeneration

    I would suggest that you use sulfuric acid as a regenerant instead of hydrochloric acid. There are several reason why you should do this: 1) Sulfuric acid is usually cheaper, but this will depend on where your plant is. 2) You need less sulfuric acid to regenerate your resin because there are...
