Why can’t heat transfer oil be used for the vaporization of liquid chlorine?

2017-11-09View Original

Thread Content

I’m currently working on a liquid chlorine gasification renovation project. The process is as follows: First, steam is used to heat the heat transfer oil to 55–60°C, and then the heat transfer oil is used to heat liquid chlorine to cause it to vaporize. Is this process feasible? Are there any practical precedents in China? Thank you to all the teachers!

The temperature you are controlling is 55–60°C; then why use steam or heat transfer oil to supply heat, and then heat transfer oil again to heat liquid chlorine? Wouldn’t it be better to use low-pressure steam or a hot water bath for heating? It might require higher standards for the equipment materials.

55-60 degrees – I really don’t understand why thermal oil is used; hot water would be sufficient, isn’t that a waste?

This is a waste of heat, and it’s also costly

Heating with heat transfer oil seems a bit absurd; you should first ask what the designer intends. Perhaps he has his own special considerations.

Vaporization of liquid chlorine is unsafe when there is a large temperature difference.

The temperature of heat transfer oil is difficult to control; it has the tendency to rise further, and even after being turned off, it will continue to increase in temperature.
