The economizer installed on a Kraft recovery boiler is the component responsible for the greatest number of tube
leaks that result in lost production for the pulp and paper industry. This technical information paper provides the
engineer with a guideline specification and supporting information for economizer procurement. The TIP is based
on reports from a comprehensive study initiated by the AF&PA Recovery Boiler Committee (1). The study was
presented at a TAPPI Conference in 2006 (2). The guideline specification addresses design, materials of
construction, manufacturing and shipping recommendations for vertical tube economizers. It is formatted as a
procurement specification that can be used as a basis for discussion with suppliers and obtaining quotations. The
guidelines are not intended to be applied for a horizontal tube economizer, although there is some information that
has merit when applied to a horizontal tube design.
