Case Study: Boosting Asphalt Production with a Custom Heat Exchanger Retrofit
A major asphalt producer needed a thermal performance upgrade to support modern
polymerized asphalt requirements. Their older heat exchanger struggled to reach
efficient operating temperatures, limiting throughput and slowing daily production.
KAM Thermal engineered a custom shell and tube heat exchanger designed to match:
- Existing saddle spacing
- Fixed piping layout
- Required thermal duty
- Plant footprint with no structural changes
The upgrade was developed through precise remote collaboration, using exchanged
measurements, drawings, and thermal modeling to ensure a perfect fit without
expensive redesign work.
Results & Performance Improvements
The upgraded exchanger increased output temperature by approximately 60°F, allowing the plant to reach nearly 380°F during polymerization and eliminating previous production bottlenecks.
- Two additional full batches produced per day
- Improved process startup and thermal efficiency
- No changes required to foundations, saddles, or piping
- Seamless integration into the existing system layout
These enhancements delivered higher throughput, better temperature stability, and a more profitable production cycle without major plant downtime.
