Heat exchangers are devices used to transfer heat between two or more fluids at different temperatures, without mixing them togetherIn edible oil solvent extraction and refinery projects, heat exchangers play a crucial role in various heating and cooling processes.Here's a simplified overview of how they work:
1. Preheating :
Heat exchangers are used to preheat the feedstock or raw materials before they enter the extraction or refining process. This helps to reduce energy consumption by utilizing waste heat from other parts of the process.
2. Solvent Recovery :
After extraction, heat exchangers are used to recover heat from the solvent-laden vapors, which helps in condensing the solvent for reuse in the extraction process.
3. Steam Generation :
Heat exchangers are employed to generate steam by transferring heat from hot liquids or gases to water. The steam produced can be used for various purposes such as heating, cooking, or driving turbines for power generation.
4. Oil Heating and Cooling:
Heat exchangers are used to heat or cool the edible oil during different stages of the refining process. For example, they may be used to heat the oil before deodorization or to cool it down after hydrogenation.
