Graphite heat exchangers can last 20 or more years. If you’re seeing less than 8 years out of its operating life, it’s time to consider material and design alternatives that will extend operating life, make maintenance easy, and guarantee resistance to corrosion and erosion.
Attendees will walk away with:
- Knowledge on why the lifespan of graphite heat exchangers is cut short in certain applications.
- Material and design options to consider when deciding to upgrade your heat exchanger.
- Examples of upgrade options and how it can improve your operation.
- Information on which materials will be best suited for different applications.
