Abstract: A tube plate of a heat exchanger includes a tube plate base material to which ends of a plurality of heat transfer tubes are fixed, a first backplate that covers a surface of the tube plate base material on a first tube chamber side, and a fastener that includes at least a shaft section and fixes the first backplate to the tube plate base material. The first backplate includes heat transfer tube insertion holes through which a plurality of heat transfer tubes are inserted, and an insertion hole through which the shaft section is loosely inserted. The first backplate is joined to an end section of a second partition wall on a first end side. The second partition wall, the first backplate, and the fastener are formed of a material having higher corrosion resistance than the tube plate base material.

Abstract: A fuel gas heater includes a container; a gas inflow chamber defined in one end of the container and having a gas inlet; a gas outflow chamber defined in the one end and having a gas outlet; U-shaped heat transfer pipes disposed inside the container, the pipes each having one end communicating with the gas inflow chamber and another end communicating with the gas outflow chamber; a heating medium supply port; a heating medium discharge port; a gas inflow opening disposed to face positions at which the pipes communicate with the gas inflow chamber; a gas inflow lid that enables the gas inflow opening to be opened and closed; a gas outflow opening disposed to face positions at which the pipes communicate with the gas outflow chamber; and a gas outflow lid that enables the gas outflow opening to be opened and closed.

Abstract: To provide a material monitoring system for biomass plastic from its source, information, such as weight, mass, or volume, in each nth node is transmitted at prescribed in and out timings to a central management server. Based on the information, the management server carries out monitoring of the original material's mass or volume which is presently onsite at the nth node. While material distribution elements will in reality branch off and become complex, the total quantity of the original material which the management server manages does not change. Should an error arise in a change in the total quantity of the original material which the management server manages, it will be possible to suspect an illicit event and to investigate the cause thereof based on the management information.
