Tantalum Heat Exchangers for Highly Corrosive Applications


Tantalum heat exchanger comprises Tantalum tubes with Carbon Steel Shell. The development comprises a completely welded metal structure. Tantalum is immune to thermal and mechanical shock. The tantalum heat exchangers have a future of around 7 to 8 years. And it needs to be clean after 2 to 3 years.  A Tantalum Heat Exchanger uses a totally welded metal plan that has no gaskets to spill out. The tantalum heat exchangers are normally subject to Dye Penetration for surface cracks detection, Hydro testing and for certain situation Helium leak testing to check the equipment leakage.

Tantalum Heat Exchangers for Ultimate Corrosion resistance:

  • Sulfuric acid
  • Phosphoric acid
  • Bromines and their mixtures
  • Nitric acid
  • Hydrochloric acid
  • Strong organic acids

The ability of tantalum to resist severe corrosion makes it an ideal choice for heat exchangers with highly corrosive process fluids. Severe Corrosive environments involved in heating /boiling of corrosive acids in tanks can be comfortably handled by Tantalum Bayonet Heaters.

Typical Applications :

Pickling

Tantalum Heat Exchangers are now emerging as a fulfilling solution towards the needs of the pickling process.
Tantalum’s robust resistance to HCL and H2SO4 corrosion along with its ability to withstand high temperatures in continuous operation has minimized downtime and nullified stoppages in pickling lines due to Heat exchanger problems.
These Heat exchangers are Shell and tube Type and the use of Carbon Steel for shell material and FRP chambers for Acid Inlet and Outlet has made Tantalum Heat exchangers a cost- effective solution for pickling.

Sulphuric Acid Concentration Systems

In a sulphuric acid concentration system, dilute sulphuric acid is heated to high temperatures to evaporate the water content which in turn increases concentration.
The extreme corrosive nature of sulphuric acid, the change in corrosive activity as the acid becomes concentrated, combined with the high temperatures makes the heat exchanges vulnerable to extreme corrosive environments.
A typical Sulphuric acid concentration system operates with Steam at 20 bar at temp more than 200°C to raise the concentration of dilute acid to more than 90%, Tantalum has an excellent 

Nitric Acid concentration system and Processes involving Nitric acid based compounds
Nitric acid concentration systems present a highly corrosive environment to the equipment and the high pressures and temperatures further increases the severity of the process. Tantalum Reboiler or Tantalum Bayonet Heat Exchangers are typically used for these systems.
Chemical processes involving Nitric acid compounds are corrosive in nature. Heat Exchangers made out of Titanium, Hastelloys and even tantalum are used for these applications

Loop Reactor: Advancing Continuous-Flow Chemical Reactions for Efficient and Scalable Production

    Loop Reactors are revolutionizing the way chemical reactions are performed in the industry. They have been in use for many years and are becoming more prevalent as they offer many advantages over traditional batch reactors. In this article, we will discuss Loop Reactors in detail, including how they work, their benefits, and their applications. What is a Loop Reactor? A Loop Reactor is a type of continuous-flow chemical reactor used to perform chemical reactions. The reactor consists of a loop-shaped tube with a high-speed impeller located inside the loop. The impeller generates high shear forces that promote mixing of the reactants and enhance the mass transfer of reactants and products within the reactor. The loop-shaped design also allows for efficient heat transfer, ensuring that the reaction temperature can be tightly controlled. How Does a Loop Reactor Work? Loop Reactors work on the principle of continuous-flow chemical reactions. The reactants are continuously fed into the

Tantalum Heat Exchangers for Highly Corrosive Applications

Tantalum Heat Exchangers for Highly Corrosive Applications In order to achieve optimum process operations, it is essential to use the right type of process equipment in any given process.  Heat exchangers, commonly used to transfer energy from one fluid to another, are no exception.  Tantalum is the most corrosion resistant metal in common use today. It is inert to practically all organic and inorganic compounds. Its corrosion resistance is very similar to glass, as both are unsuitable for use in hydrofluoric acid and strong hot alkali applications.  For this reason, Tantalum is often used with glass lined steel Reactors as patches, Dip Tubes, Piping and Overhead Condensers. CrystalTCS offers a full line of standard and custom designed shell and tube heat exchangers for acids or highly corrosive media operations. Tantalum, the inert material for most acids and highly corrosion areas, when machined/ rolled and fabricated into heat transfer equipment increases the life and du
