Maximize Process Efficiency & Reliability with Industrial Kettle Type Reboilers


What is a Kettle Type Reboiler?


A Kettle Type Reboiler is a specialized shell-and-tube heat exchanger used for reboiling applications in chemical, petrochemical, and oil & gas industries. It works by vaporizing a portion of the bottom liquid from a distillation column to provide the necessary heat for the separation process.



At Yuhong Group, our kettle-type reboilers are engineered for:

  • High heat transfer efficiency
  • Ease of maintenance
  • Reliable performance under continuous operation

The design typically includes a kettle drum (shell side) where liquid collects and a tube bundle for vapor generation. The excess liquid leaves as bottoms product, while generated vapor returns to the distillation column.


General Construction & Design Standards


  • Design Codes: ASME Section VIII, TEMA Standards, API 660 (as applicable)
  • Heat Transfer Area: Typically ranges from 10 m² to 1500 m² (customizable)
  • Flow Arrangement:
    • Tube Side: Heating medium (e.g., steam, hot oil)
    • Shell Side: Process fluid to be vaporized
  • Bundle Type: Removable U-tube or straight tube with floating head for easy maintenance

Technical Specifications

  • Operating Pressure: Up to 40 bar (depending on material and design)
  • Operating Temperature: Up to 400°C (with suitable materials)
  • Vapor Load Handling: Designed for large vaporization rates
  • Vapor Space: Sufficient for disengagement to avoid liquid carryover
  • Typical Heat Duty: 0.5 MW to 25 MW (custom-designed)

Material of Construction (MOC)


We offer a range of materials based on process conditions, corrosion requirements, and temperature:


Shell & Kettle Drum:

  • Carbon Steel (ASTM A516 Gr. 60/70)
  • Stainless Steel (SS304, SS316, SS316L)
  • Duplex Stainless Steel
  • Alloy Steel (Chrome-Moly, ASTM A387)

Tube Bundle:

  • Stainless Steel (SS304, SS316, SS316L)
  • Copper-Nickel Alloys
  • Inconel, Monel, Hastelloy (for corrosive services)
  • Titanium (for seawater or highly corrosive environments)

Gaskets & Seals:

  • Spiral Wound Gaskets (SS + Graphite)
  • PTFE (for corrosive applications)

Key Features

  • Removable Tube Bundle for easy inspection and maintenance
  • Large Kettle Design for proper vapor disengagement
  • Customizable Nozzle Orientation to suit piping layout
  • High Thermal Efficiency through optimized design
  • Compliance with International Codes (ASME/TEMA)

Applications
