Modernization is a necessary part of business, particularly in industrial environments. It does several things, not the least of which is improving efficiency and productivity for the equipment in question. It also reduces the need to replace other components connected to the machinery, lowers operating costs, and keeps the entire operation flowing by mitigating setbacks and delays. That includes improving or modernizing process and heating systems, such as an industrial process heater.
Process heating is fundamental but requires lots of energy and resources. The usefulness of the system is generally determined by how much heat it can produce, and more heat leads to more energy consumption. Traditionally, swapping to more efficient systems sacrifices heat — and product quality — to deliver the same results with less input or less energy. That’s been true for many years, until recently. Modern technology is capable of producing a process heater that’s efficient and effective yet doesn’t reduce product quality and system capabilities.
