Korea Thermal Engineering Co., Ltd. has long been engaged in the design and manufacture of "heat recovery systems", namely recuperators for use in conjunction with furnaces in all industrial fields, but especially the steel industry.

To date, we have delivered over 3,000 units. Our long service-life design, based on accurate heat calculation and the selection of optinum heat resistant steels has earned an established reputation, as proven by our outstanding delivery record. We constantly adopt the latest technology from a wide range of fields.

Since the escalation in petroleum prices, industry has been taking steps to conserve energy by placing emphasis on fuel economy. In recent years, efforts have also been made for protection of the environment.

K-TEC's wide range of recuperators provide a heat recovery system which effectively utilizes waste heat to preheat combustion air and fuel gases and reduce fuel costs, while, as the result of fuel saving, contributing environmentally to a reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

Consequently, the recuperator is effective in energy conservation in a variety of industrial furnaces, offering positive fuel savings as well as reducing the amount of CO2 gas discharge into the atmosphere, one of the causes of the "Greenhouse" effect."
