Secondary circuit units TR
Secondary circuit units use existing thermal energy, like for example steam, cooling water and brine – so called ‘primary systems’. The difficult part is to integrate the existing infrastructure into a single fluid system or secondary loop that controls the temperature of the processing equipment. This makes only one single fluid heat transfer service (monofluid) to a reactor jacket (instead of steam, cooling water and brine). By using a single fluid heat transfer system the following advantages arise: you can achieve seamless and reproducible temperature control over an extremely wide temperature range and you can avoid and eliminate the traditional requirement for utility changeovers and jacket service blow-downs. The small fluid volume leads to fast acting control loops with very small thermal inertia. The use of thermal oil also reduces the high pressure requirements of steam systems and is a medium separating product and environment.
