Heat Exchanger Training for Operators
Exchanger types, how heat moves between streams, and operating considerations.
Why it matters on the unit
Heat exchangers recover energy and control process temperatures across the plant. Fouling, leaks and poor line-ups cost energy and can put product off specification.
Operators who understand how heat moves between streams can read exchanger performance from temperatures and know what to check when it changes.
