Abstract :
Heat tracing has been widely used in power generating facilities for many years, primarily for winterization of pipes containing water or condensates in subfreezing climates. However, there are many process applications for heat tracing that are often overlooked. Some of these applications are reviewed, and attention is focused on analyzing stack gas emissions
