As a power source widely used in the machinery industry, the air compressor output is not only safe and clean, but also easily realizes the user's gas demand through simple pipe connection. However, in actual use, the air compressor needs to consume a lot of energy, according to statistics, the air compressor in the electric energy consumption accounted for 10-35% of the total energy consumption. In order to improve productivity and reduce energy consumption, air compressor waste heat recovery to better reduce energy consumption and achieve the purpose of energy saving and environmental protection.
Air compressor waste heat recovery technology principle: In winter, the heat released by the air cooling system of the air compressor is introduced into the production workshop or office building for heating or the supply of hot water in the workshop. The air compressor is equipped with waste heat recovery technology, which can almost recover the waste heat of the air compressor again. In the summer, customers can close the compressor waste heat recovery valve or release this waste heat directly into the atmosphere through the air duct. As can be seen from the figure, after the installation of the air compressor waste heat recovery device, the system will also retain the original air compressor cooling system, which is a simple transformation of the oil and gas path after the oil and gas separation tank, connected to the additional waste heat recovery and utilization exchanger, the heat generated by the air compressor oil in the circulation process is transmitted to another equipment in the exchanger, so that the waste heat enters the insulated water storage tank, which is used to heat the water of the water pipe, and the hot water after heating is used for the daily life water of the workshop employees, winter heating and other places. The choice of this technology is to turn the waste heat generated by the air compressor into a reusable resource. Users can also install control systems on equipment according to the expenditure budget, realize the function of online regulation and monitoring of water temperature and oil temperature, so as to ensure that the air compressor is in a stable and efficient operating state for a long time from many aspects.
The installation of the air compressor waste heat recovery supporting system has achieved the goal of energy saving and environmental protection of the enterprise, and on the basis of reducing the operating costs of the enterprise, it has also brought practical economic benefits to the enterprise users, which is a wise move for the use of the air compressor customer.
