May 16, 2017 – Solvay, a leading global supplier of specialty polymers, today announced that its advanced Hyflon® perfluoroalkoxyfluoropolymer (PFA) has helped Beijing Xinshiyi Energy-saving Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. succeed in China Developed an energy-efficient and reliable 600 MW MGGH heat exchanger for large coal-fired power plants.
"The MGGH heat exchanger uses the thermal energy carried by the waste flue gas discharged from the coal-fired boiler, thereby reducing emissions and helping to meet the requirements of the stricter environmental protection policies of the 13th Five-Year Plan," said Zhang Fang, commercial director of Beijing Xinshiyi "To support China's 13th Five-Year Plan, we actively seek to work with industry-leading material suppliers like Solvay to help us develop and produce highly competitive, better performing, and more reliable heat exchangers. Hyflon ® PFA excels in the field of heat exchanger applications, making it the best choice for our latest system design. Its successful commissioning at Guodian Beilun Power Plant proves that our choice is wise. "
Hyflon® PFA is a semi-crystalline melt-processable perfluoropolymer. The extruded tubes for heat exchangers are assembled on modules in the Beijing Xinshiyi heat exchange system. Beijing Xinshiyi's heat exchange system is the first time Solvay Hyflon® PFA has been used in a large 600 MW MGGH heat exchanger in China. Three months after its installation at the Guodian Beilun Power Plant in Zhejiang Province, China, the new system has demonstrated higher heat recovery, energy saving and emission reduction performance.
Compared with other competitive solutions, Solvay's Hyflon® PFA has a higher temperature resistance level and can withstand a wider variety of chemicals. It is very suitable for industrial-grade replacements that need to withstand extremely high temperatures and harsh chemical environments. Heater. These characteristics have also enabled Hyflon® PFA to demonstrate outstanding performance in the heat exchangers of more than 30 large thermal power plants in Europe and China over the past three decades.
