Waste heat boiler with ip-tube for sulfuric acid synthesis
Hugo Petersen GmbH | Domo Leuna
Hugo Petersen GmbH required a waste heat boiler for process cooling for its process engineering plant for sulfuric acid production.
Project Highlights
51 t/h steam
at 56 bar
Special design
with ip-tube
Final assembly
directly on site
Initial Situation
- A waste heat boiler for process cooling is required for a process engineering plant for the production of sulfuric acid.
- Due to the confined space conditions, the special synthesis gas, and the required steam parameters – high pressure as an individual special boiler design
The Solution from SCHNEIDER-KESSEL BERLIN®
A special waste heat boiler of type AHK-ip (SB) 51000/56 with structural tubes (ip-tube), natural circulation, and separate steam drum was used. The inlet chamber was lined with ceramic sleeves and refractory concrete, the outlet chamber was made of high-grade stainless steel. A water-cooled internal bypass control system ensures additional process safety. Final assembly was carried out directly at the construction site in Leuna.
