Installation of Plate Heat Exchanger
Heat Exchanger World
Heat Exchanger Cleaning

Updates shall be carried out from time to time. If you provide services related to heat exchanger tubing, please let me know too.

Pittsburgh, PA (PRWEB) February 20, 2009 — Conco Systems, Inc. announced today that the company shareholders and board of directors approved a name change of wholly owned Global Heat Exchanger, Inc. to Conco Industrial Services Corporation effective immediately.    The name Global Heat Exchanger has been used since 1970, achieving widespread penetration in the US, Canada, Europe, Australia, Middle East and Asia. The company is widely recognized as the innovator of the HydroDrill brand of tube cleaning systems and services, currently being used to clean challenging tube deposits at refineries, petrochemical plants, pulp and paper, electric power and process industry.

The name change reinforces the Conco brand as an integrated provider of heat exchanger tube cleaning and testing services and reflects the company’s long-term strategy to advance its service capabilities, and more closely aligns and strengthens the identity of each of its operating divisions; Conco Systems, Inc., Conco Services Corp., and Conco Industrial Services Corp.

In addition to a new name, Conco Industrial Services adds new cleaning capabilities with the introduction of its exclusive liquid nitrogen cleaning service called NitroLance. The NitroLance focuses on in-place cleaning of fouled heat exchanger tubes using zero-waste, clean liquid nitrogen.

Thermal energy storage enables concentrating solar thermal power (CSP) facilities to operate in a more flexible manner that allows both the developer and the local utility to maximize the value of a plant’s output. Richard Baxter explains why, with storage, the sun always shines on CSP.

Thermal energy storage provides a number of significant commercial benefits to the operation of a concentrating solar power (CSP) facility. Storage allows the plant to be optimized to address the peak load profile of a utility; it provides the operational flexibility required for the CSP facility to be more competitive and create the most value as a project; and it is a zero emission solution to the eternal ‘variability’ question that dogs much renewable generation, particularly when it is grid-connected. In short, storage enables a CSP facility to operate as a reliable and flexible low-carbon resource replacement for fossil generation.

Thermal energy storage is therefore an important technology that will play a key role in moving solar power into the mainstream of the power generation mix. CSP technology is a real, near-term solution to achieving widespread solar power facilities in the tens and thousands of megawatt class, and energy storage is a key enabling technology to make these facilities operate successfully in today’s power market.

Thermal storage technologies are designed to improve the availability and dispatchability of a solar thermal power facility — thereby enhancing its overall value. In the long run, thermal storage will help integrate more solar power into the generation mix by enabling CSP facilities to shoulder a greater component of the daily power demand in many regions of the world.

With the heating system at Crocker Elementary School in Fitchburg on its last legs, School Committee member Sally H. Cragin sees an opportunity.

The state School Building Authority has already identified Crocker, which serves kindergarten through fourth grade, as eligible for renovation and repair funds. Among the options being considered for the school is a geothermal heating and cooling system, which proponents say is more efficient and cheaper to run than conventional systems.

Fitchburg will seek bids to study its feasibility.

To see geothermal in action, Ms. Cragin visited the Massachusetts Innovation Center on Oak Hill Road in Fitchburg.

“We saw that it was clean; we saw that it was very efficient engineering, and it made us curious to find out more,” she said. “The time is now. We are in a steady, serious pursuit of knowledge about this.”
