Thermal oil heaters are increasingly known to people. However, despite their growing popularity, many customers still have questions: what industries can thermal oil heaters be applied to?
Compared with steam heating, thermal oil heating has advantages such as uniform heating, simple operation, safety and environmental protection, energy saving, high temperature control accuracy, and low operating pressure. Therefore, it has been widely used as a heat transfer medium in modern industrial production.The following mainly introduces the application of thermal oil heaters in the oil industry, chemical industry, fat industry, food industry, textile printing and dyeing industry, medical industry, synthetic fiber industry, papermaking industry, plastic/ rubber industry, wood industry, building materials industry, road construction engineering, metallurgy, mechanical processing and casting industry, air conditioning and electrical equipment industry, fat and paint industry, coking industry, automobile manufacturing industry, national defense research, carbon industry, shipping industry and other industries. The details are as follows:
1.In the oil industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating crude oil and natural gas, as well as processing, storage, and transportation of mineral oils. Refineries use thermal oil to preheat cold materials and have successfully used it for heating solvent and extractant evaporation units in lubricating oil manufacturing processes.
2.In the chemical industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating in distillation, evaporation, polymerization, condensation/demulsification, esterification, drying, melting, dehydrogenation, forced insulation, and synthesis units for pesticides, intermediates, antioxidants, surfactants, fragrances, etc.
3.In the fat industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating in oil decomposition, fatty acid distillation, esterification, nitration, hydrogenation reaction, concentration, vacuum deodorization, etc.
4.In the food industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating in bread baking units, biscuit baking units, candy production units, grain drying units, edible oil pressing and refining units, distillation pots, autoclaves, and conveyor belt dryers.
5.In the textile printing and dyeing industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating in drying and setting units, hot melt dyeing units, dyeing and printing units, dryers, drying machines, calenders, flattening machines, washing machines, cloth rolling machines, ironing machines, and hot air stenter frames.
6.In the medical industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating in equipment and devices for drug preparation, raw material mixing, formulation, disinfection, distillation, evaporation, and melting.
7.In the synthetic fiber industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating in polymerization, melting, spinning, thermosetting, fiber finishing, stretching, and drying equipment. In the papermaking industry, they are mainly used for heating in glue applicator rollers, drying rollers, drying rooms, drying cabinets, hot melt machines, wax melting pots, and corrugated paper processing.
8.In the papermaking industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating in glue applicator rollers, drying rollers, drying rooms, drying cabinets, hot melt machines, wax melting pots, and corrugated paper processing.
9.In the plastic and rubber industry, thermal oil heaters are mainly used for heating and insulation in hot pressing, hot calendering, extrusion, kneading, internal mixing, vulcanization molding, injection molding machines, glue mixers, conveyor belt dryers, screw extruders, and molds.
