To dry dispersion coatings fast and effectively, a great deal of
energy is needed to heat the air. An extraction system subsequently
releases the hot air applied to the print sheet into the atmosphere
as waste heat.
The heat recovery system for DryStar Combination dryers from
Heidelberg recycles the heat from this exhaust air, feeding it into
the fresh air supply and reusing it for the drying process. A
cross-flow heat exchanger ensures none of the moisture contained in
the exhaust air is transferred. This heat recovery system reduces
energy costs and makes a significant contribution to improving a
print shop's environmental performance.
