In power plant systems, the boiler economizer (i.e., heat exchanger recovering heat from flue gases leaving the boiler) is often provided with bypass ducts and dampers, and additional economizer tubes are installed downstream of the SCR reactor. The SCR reactor itself—such as that shown in Figure 19—can be also provided with a bypass.

Records at the plant indicate that heating costs with the old boiler system ranged between $700,000 and $1,000,000 a year, not including the cost of steam used in the production process. "With the Space-Ray heaters, energy costs have been ranging between $135,000 to $200,000 a year, depending on the severity of the winter," Allgyer said.
