Condensation
Condensation is a process in which the medium to be cooled completely or partially passes from a vapor state to a liquid state, giving off heat to the coolant. In most cases, the coolant is water, less often air (for example, in air coolers), process fluids.
Condensation equipment may have different names in different industries:
- condenser
- refrigerator
- refrigerator-condenser
- condenser-cooler
- condensing cooler
- heat exchanger
Application in industries
Refining industry
Used as...
They are used in almost all installations for condensation of intermediate or end products, top or side withdrawal of columns due to circulating water. Condensation due to air in air coolers is also very common. Quite often, condensation is accompanied by further cooling.
Chemical industry
Used as...
Used as:
- reflux condensers for stripping (benzene) columns
- condensers for hydrogen sulphide gas, end gas, ammonia, light oil vapors
- condensation of vapors
- condensation in cooled gas streams (for example, as reflux condensers)
Gas processing industry
Used as...
Used in:
- processes of purification, separation (fractionation), production of end products from natural gas;
- as reflux condensers for columns.
Metallurgical industry
Used as...
Used on installations as:
- vapor condensers
- capacitors for heating electrolytes
