Battling corrosion

Corrosion is a serious and recurring problem in the heat exchanger industry , which demands expertise from designers , fabricators , operators and maintenance providers to combat it adequately . Depending on the application , the rate and severity of corrosion in heat transfer systems may be affected by temperature , pressure , and the corrosiveness of the process medium . There is no one-size-fits-all solution , with cost playing a key role in determining how to tackle this problem . Yet there is no doubt that material selection is one of the most crucial decisions that will affect the corrosive behaviour of a heat exchanger over its lifecycle .
Omari Sabuni has provided a feature article tackling this important topic in this month ’ s magazine . He explains that selecting the correct material of construction will ensure the longevity , efficiency , and safety of a heat exchanger . His step-by-step feature , which starts on page 45 , takes you through the process of how to choose the most suitable material for your application .
This month , we welcome Hexonic to the magazine cover . This family-owned company continues to adapt and innovate to meet the evolving demands of the market while staying loyal to its core values . Our editor , Iryna Mukha , spoke with the Hexonic team to learn about how the company is on a mission to transcend its role as a manufacturer and become a strategic partner in addressing industry challenges . You can read more in the cover story , which starts on page 8 .
In this issue , the Heat Exchanger World team are delighted to release the Advance Conference Program for our European event , which takes place on 13 & 14 November in Rotterdam , the Netherlands . Following the success of our first European conference & expo in 2022 , we moved to the Ahoy ! Rotterdam venue , which has allowed us much-needed room to grow . The expo is filling quickly with a wide range of international heat exchanger suppliers , fabricators and service providers . It ’ s the ideal place to meet all the business contacts you need in one convenient location . Plus , as it ’ s co-located next to our Duplex World conference & expo , it ’ s also highly convenient for those of you looking for material suppliers or advice from the experts on hand . Take a look through the Heat Exchanger World Europe conference timetable and start planning your visit – it will be the best decision you make this year !
