Enhancing Boiler Efficiency: Solving Corrosion in Tubular Air Preheaters with Sacrificial

Air Preheaters (APH) play a crucial role in boiler systems, facilitating the transfer of heat from flue gases to the combustion air before it enters the furnace. This process improves thermal efficiency by recovering waste heat from the boiler’s flue gas, thereby minimizing energy losses, and reducing operational costs. However, a significant challenge faced in Tubular Air Preheaters (TAPH) is corrosion, particularly in the low-temperature zone.

Cold-End Corrosion in Tubular Air Preheater (TAPH) and TEFUGEN’s Engineered Solution

Corrosion was observed on the outer surfaces of Tubular Air Preheater (TAPH) tubes located in the low-temperature zone of a heat recovery boiler at a power plant. The TAPH unit, designed as either a horizontal or vertical,crossflow-type heat exchanger, utilized its tubes to preheat water using heat recovered from flue gases exiting the boiler.
