ECONOTHERM?is a leading UK based manufacturer of Heat Pipe Waste Heat Recuperators, Economisers, Pre-Heaters and Steam Condensers.

Our patented super conductor Heat Pipe technology is used in a wide range of applications across many diverse industrial sectors. The technology is renowned for being extremely robust and able to operate in many challenging heat recovery environments for the benefit of high energy users seeking to reduce ever increasing energy costs.

The combination of a unique low cost manufacturing process and patented exchanger designs ensure that the many technical advantages of heat pipe exchangers are available to industrial users wishing to reduce running costs and carbon emissions.

Heat Pipe Advantages Over Conventional Equipment

Superior Reliability

Multiple Redundancy
Each heat pipe operates independently which gives the unit the ability to continue in the event of damage to individual heat pipes.

Isothermal operation
A unique feature of heat pipes is their Isothermal operation. This eliminates cold corners where condensation may occur and is often the cause of failure in conventional heat recovery equipment.


Extended Operating Life

Thermal Stress Elimination
The heat pipes within an ECONOTHERM?ecuperator are supported from a single point only. This allows them to expand and contract thermally without transferring any stress to the units casing or joints.

High Particulate Exhaust Tolerance
ECONOTHERM?eat pipe units can be designed with a very low fouling factor but in addition can be provided with a number of features that make them ideal for high particulate environments .

Superior Performance

Low pressure drop

Higher Recovery
The Isothermal operation of the pipes allows more heat to be extracted from the primary flow whilst still avoiding problematic condensation in the unit.

ECONOTHERM?heat pipe exchangers are used to recover waste heat from furnace, boiler, oven, thermal oxidiser, engine & incinerator exhaust......
