The REYCO Energy Recovery System allows our customers to recover energy which would normally be wasted from one part of the plant and employ that energy in a useful manner somewhere else in the facility. In most cases, this reuse is in the form of a low to medium-grade heat, normally in the form of hot water, that can be used as make-up water for a blancher or as boiler preheat water. REYCO can also design systems whereby the heat is recycled and used to warm a building in cold weather.

The System consists of one or more heat exchange coils positioned in a “hot” area of the facility. Often, these coils are placed after a fryer exhaust and immediately ahead of a REYCO Fryer Air Washer. In this manner, the heat can be recovered from the fryer just before the oil-laden air is cleaned and discharged from the facility. REYCO provides complete design specifications including a targeted water discharge temperature and flow rate. Each Energy Recovery System is custom designed and plant-specific to a particular application.

REYCO includes complete control of the system including automatic temperature controls and emergency shut off switches. A complete steam coil wash-down system is also included to provide for an extended coil life expectancy and ensure optimal heat transfer.
