Challenge
The primary engineering objective was the seamless integration of the new exhaust system into the facility’s existing architecture. This new system had to specifically deal with flue gas temperatures below 200 degrees Celsius and the resulting condensation. Furthermore, ensuring the structural integrity and safety of the ductwork within the older building was paramount. Achieving this balance necessitated an exceptional level of precision and meticulous planning throughout every phase of the project.
Solution
To make our projects even more effective, Schiedel regularly cooperates with different boiler manufacturers (such as Bosch, Viessmann, Vaillant and Remeha). This was also the case for this project. Schiedel applied the MF system which is perfectly suited for these conditions. The diameter of the duct was accurately calculated based on the amount of flue gases to be discharged per hour. To solve the condensation problem, the system was installed at an angle of 3 degrees, with the correct and safe bracing, allowing the condensation water formed to drain easily. Proper preparation and modifications to the initial drawings by Schiedel's in-house engineering department ensured an efficient process.
The Customer
At this candle wax plant, the installation of a new boiler now guarantees the customer a reliable and consistent supply of industrial process heat. Central to ensuring business continuity was the seamless cooperation with the boiler manufacturer, alongside Schiedel’s expert design and supply of a safe exhaust system. The final result is a durable, high-performance solution that fully meets all operational expectations.
