TITAN offers a full line of standard and custom and designed shell and tube heat exchangers for the indirect steam heating of pickle bath operation. Tantalum is one of the most inert materials for complete corrosion resistance in pickle bath chemistries. Tantalum offers better heat transfer characteristics and higher pressure capabilities than alternative materials (i.e. Graphite) therefore maximizing the total heat transfer area possible in a given dimensional space. The life expectancy of a Tantalum unit is far superior to that of the alternative materials, which reduces down time and maintenance costs.
