New-age Industrial Water Heating Solutions are Smarter than Ever Before
Hot water is utilised in a large number of industries that include food processing, hotel/motel, concrete production, laundry and many more. The businesses which require hot water in profuse amounts have to search some highly specialized heavy duty equipments to avail large quantities of liquid for sustained periods.
For a very long time, the ultimate solution to achieve this goal was the use of a conventional boiler system, but modern technologies in the past 20 years have completely changed the methods and efficiencies of the modern heating solutions. Now, re-circulating and direct contact devices (also known as on-demand water heaters) are becoming an industry standard across the globe.
Some major types of industrial heaters include the following-
- Water, oils, detergents and other process liquids in pressurized circulation systems
- Air and process gases in circulation systems
- Water, oils, tars, detergents and other process liquids in tanks or vats
Water boilers used to be the commonplace during 1900's providing heating solutions to both industrial and residential buildings on a large scale. As heating methodologies developed and central cooling and forced air systems became commonplace, the costing of a conventional water boiler didn't make much sense for a large number of business and residential premises.
The other prominent negative factors affecting boiler use apart from the upfront cost was the appropriate training and timely inspections unavoidably necessary to operate the devices. In most cases, exclusively trained workers are required to operate these hot water boilers.
It does not matter at all which type of industrial heating solutions you go for, their overall efficiency is now much better than 15-20 years ago. But, there are still so many significant differences between cost-to-operate, cost-to-purchase and overall efficiencies between different kinds of systems. A large number of customers find a perfect balance between cost-to-operate and upfront cost while making their decisions based upon overall use and cash in hand. These calculations are applicable on all types of devices including Finned Heaters.
