FLU-ACE Boiler Exhaust Heat Recovery Tower

Thermal Energy International (TEI) implemented a FLU-ACE Condensing Heat Recovery System on the plant’s boiler exhaust. The system was designed to recover up to 5.3 GJ/hour of waste heat energy that would otherwise be exhausted to the atmosphere. The recovered heat, in the form of water at 140°F, is used to heat and preheat:

  • Boiler plant make up water

  • Plant hot water (CIP & wash water)

The project delivers significant annual energy cost savings and a fuel use reduction of up to 25%.

In addition it provides the benefits of:

  • Increase of the overall efficiency of the boilers to 96%;
  • Proportional reduction (over 10%) in all combustion related emissions and greenhouse gases;
  • Reduction of particulate and acid gas emissions; and
  • Recovery of 80 to 90% of the waste heat

Implemented on a Turn-key basis, the project was completed on budget and on schedule, with a verified payback under 2 years.
