Welded Plate Heat Exchangers Bloc Type (Compabloc) features

Scambio Termico

While many process and maintenance engineers are familiar with the traditional gasketed plate heat exchanger, the welded plate heat exchanger has greatly expanded the appliable temperature and pressure rating available to the plate exchanger technology. Compablocs have been used as reboilers and condensers on the same separation column.

The Importance of Vapor Recovery Units in Reducing Emissions

Pro-Gas Services

Condensation Condensation is a process that takes advantage of the physical properties of VOCs. By cooling the vapor stream to a specific temperature, the VOCs reach their dew point and condense into a liquid form. This is similar to how water vapor condenses into droplets on a cold surface.
