Application: Waste & Vent Steam Condensation

It is often desirable to utilize vent or waste steam rather than simply release it to the atmosphere or condense it into
water to eliminate the steam. The dif culty has been nding a way to safely and stably condense the steam into a
process uid so the energy can be used in a productive manner. Vent steam is often variable in pressure and
availability. Traditional heat exchangers often have trouble functioning in this manner making them problematic.

Some issues associated with heat exchangers:

Sizing the exchangers to handle the liquid and steam ow results in the heat exchangers overly large, adding
expense and pressure drop to the system

Sizing the trap system for the heat exchanger is dif cult to accomplish without the potential of overloading the
system with live steam.

ProSonix Solution

The ProSonix J-Series Jet Sparger allows the vent steam to be utilized in a safe and simple manner. The exibility in
mounting the heater allows the steam to be condensed in a wide range of pipe sizes, or into a tank or other vessel.
Control of the steam addition can be accomplished in a simple manner. Often, a pressure switch is utilized on the
steam vent condenser line, activating the PSX heater to quickly condense the steam. An air cylinder on the ProSonix
heater quickly opens to allow the steam to disperse quickly and quietly into the owing uid.

When the steam vent closes, or the pressure drops, the air cylinder on the ProSonix steam vent condenser closes.
