The invention of the recovery boiler by G.H. Tomlinson in the early 1930s was a milestone in the advancement of the kraft process. [1] Recovery boilers are also used in the (less common) sulfite process of wood pulping; this article deals only with recovery boiler use in the kraft process.
The invention of the recovery boiler by G. H. Tomlinson in the early 1930s [2] allowed kraft mills to recycle almost all of their pulping chemicals. This, along with the ability of the kraft process to accept a wider variety of types of wood and produce stronger fibers [ 4 ] made the kraft process the dominant pulping process starting in the ...
A schematic process flow diagram of a basic 2+1-reactor (converter) SuperClaus unit is shown below: Schematic flow diagram of a straight-through, 3 reactor (converter), Claus sulfur recovery unit. The Claus technology can be divided into two process steps, thermal and catalytic.
A recuperator is a special purpose counter-flow energy recovery heat exchanger positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of an air handling system, or in the exhaust gases of an industrial process, in order to recover the waste heat. Generally, they are used to extract heat from the exhaust and use it to preheat air entering the ...
Mechanical vapor recompression (MVR) is an energy recovery process which can be used to recycle waste heat to improve efficiency. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Typically, the compressed vapor is fed back to help heat the mother liquor in order to produce more vapor or steam.
The heat recovery boiler is item 5 in the COGAS figure shown above. Hot gas turbine exhaust enters the super heater, then passes through the evaporator and finally through the economiser section as it flows out from the boiler. Feed water comes in through the economizer and then exits after having attained saturation temperature in the water or ...

The field-tube boiler uses downward-pointing vertical tubes and these also have an internal tube. This extra tube segregates the flow into a central cold downcomer and an upwelling outer flow of heated water and boiling steam. In the thimble tube, there is no such segregation and so boiling is a random process with flow back and forth along the ...
