Superior resistance and heat efficiency with heat-storing ceramic materials
The Enterprise II uses ceramics as the heat-storing material
for its heat exchanger. Ceramics are extremely resistant
and heat-efficient while also having little pressure loss.
With a heat efficiency in the 85 to 95 percent range,
energy use can be minimized, and auxilary fuel is almost
unnecessary, greatly raising energy efficiency. When dealing
with high-concentration exhaust gas, heat can be recovered
as steam and hot air by attaching devices such as a waste
heat boiler to the system.
Maintains a 98% exhaust
gas processing efficiency
The heat exchanger in the Enterprise II is composed of two columns, both of which are made from various heat-storing materials. Processed exhaust gas is sent through one column's heat-storing materials and its temperature is raised to the 700 level. It then enters the reaction room at the top of the column, its temperature is raised to approximately 800 in the burner, and organic solvents are broken up through oxidation. The processed high-temperature exhaust gas enters the other column, and it moves downwards as its heat is adsorbed by heat-storing materials. The change of the inlet damper make the two columns repeat the cycle of heat storage and reduction. Being able to operate stably at a processing efficiency of over 98 percent, the system strongly contributes to environmental protection. |
