In industries where dust-laden, high-temperature gases are part of everyday operation, efficient and robust heat recovery becomes essential. The SCHACK® Recuperator product family offers tailored solutions for a broad range of thermal processes, including sludge incineration, carbon black production, glass melting, foundries, and gasification.
Whether convection or radiation-based, our recuperators are engineered to recover energy from exhaust gases at temperatures up to 1,100 °C, preheating process air or gas to above 900 °C. This reduces fuel consumption, boosts plant efficiency, and ensures sustainable operation across industries such as chemical, petrochemical, refining, glass, and metallurgy.
Every SCHACK® Recuperator is based on decades of experience, combining customized design, corrosion resistance, and thermal reliability in a single, long-lasting system.
At the heart of our SCHACK® Recuperators lies a combination of custom thermal engineering and robust mechanical design. Our solutions are optimized for dust-laden waste gases at extreme temperatures and tailored for uniform flow and precise heat recovery.
Key design features include self-cleaning capabilities that reduce maintenance requirements, flexible configurations that accommodate process-specific layouts, and durable construction that ensures long service life and high operational availability.
With the ability to preheat gases to temperatures exceeding 900 °C, SCHACK® Recuperators deliver outstanding energy recovery across a wide range of industries, including carbon black production, refining, steel manufacturing, glass processing, and sludge incineration. From standardized models to fully customized designs, SCHACK® Recuperators are trusted worldwide for their efficiency, reliability, and sustainability in the most demanding process environments.
From standardized units to fully customized designs, SCHACK® Recuperators are trusted worldwide for delivering efficiency, reliability, and sustainability in challenging process conditions.
SCHACK® Flue Tube-Type Recuperators are designed to recover energy from hot flue gases while protecting downstream cleaning systems from excessive temperatures.
Installed upstream of gas cleaning equipment, these recuperators are especially suited for demanding environments such as carbon black production and sludge incineration. By cooling high-temperature flue gases, they not only safeguard equipment but also enhance overall process efficiency through effective heat recovery.
