Abstract: A housing for a heat exchange apparatus including a fluid passageway partially defined by a baffle plate having an extended portion. The heat exchange apparatus further includes an array of fluid conduits extending through the fluid passageway. The housing includes a plurality of housing members each having a wall and at least one flange extending from the wall. The flanges of adjacent housing members are joined at a flange joint, and the flange joint is configured to fixedly receive the extended portion of the baffle plate. The apparatus also includes a plate member is provided within the fluid passageway and intumescent material fills a gap between the baffle plate and the plate member. Additionally, a second baffle plate is provided that defines a portion of a second fluid passageway, where a refractory gasket and a layer of intumescent material are provided between the first and second baffle plates.

Abstract: A manifold assembly including a unitary manifold body including at least two component ports and an integral channel system connecting the component ports in series, and at least two fluid-treating components directly connected to the component ports in a substantially gas-tight manner. The fluid-treating components can include at least one of a coalescer, an adsorber, an absorber, a strainer, and a filter. At least one of the component ports includes an inner port section and an outer port section, the outer port section including a flow distributor arranged around and concentric to the inner port section.

Abstract: An apparatus for structural support of process equipment including a unitary structural base. The structural base includes a first surface having a mounting recess shaped to receive a first equipment component and a second surface located on the opposite side of the first surface and having a stiffening rib shaped to provide structural support. The structural base also includes a side surface located between the first and second surface and including an aperture shaped to receive a lifting component.
