Industries - Rolling / Re - Rolling

EASTERN designs and manufactures custom heat exchangers and recuperators specifically engineered for re rolling and rolling mill furnaces. Our reheating furnace recuperators preheat combustion air up to 800°C, directly cutting fuel consumption by up to 40% in reheating furnaces across steel and metal processing plants. In addition, with a capacity range of 2 TPH to 600 TPH and compatibility with all fuel types including oil, gas, pulverised coal, BFG and coal gases – EASTERN’S re rolling heat recovery systems retrofit existing furnaces without production shutdown.

Trusted by Jindal Steel, JSW Steel, and leading rolling mills across India and worldwide, our systems deliver a maximum payback period of 3 months.

Why Re Rolling Plants Choose EASTERN

How Waste Heat Recovery Works in Reheating Furnaces

In a re rolling or reheating furnace, flue gases exit at temperatures between 800°C and 1,000°C. However, without a recuperator, this heat escapes completely through the exhaust stack wasted energy that directly increases your fuel bill.

As a result, the furnace reaches higher flame temperatures faster, improves soaking quality, and consumes significantly less fuel per tonne of steel processed. Furthermore, preheating combustion air to 800°C can reduce specific fuel consumption by 30–45%, depending on furnace design and operating temperature.

Built for Re Rolling and Steel Mill Conditions

EASTERN recuperators for rolling furnaces are engineered to handle the unique challenges of steel mill environments high dust loads, scale carry-over, and fluctuating fuel types including BFG (Blast Furnace Gas), coal gas, and pulverised coal. As a result, our self-cleaning and easy-cleaning design options ensure continuous operation with minimal maintenance downtime.

Our engineers custom-design each unit based on your furnace’s flue gas temperature, flow rate, fuel type, and layout. Consequently, you receive a recuperator that fits your existing furnace without requiring major structural changes. We also offer upgradation of old recuperators with new higher-efficiency units maintaining the same overall dimensions.

Capacity and Installation

Our re rolling heat exchangers are available across a wide capacity range — from 2 TPH to 600 TPH — making them suitable for small rolling mills as well as large integrated steel plants. Additionally, our engineering team provides full installation supervision and commissions most systems within agreed timelines.

EASTERN recuperators are designed in compliance with ISO 9001:2015 quality management standards, ensuring reliable performance across all operating conditions.
