 We received the 1996 Commercialization Achievement Award from the U.S. Department of Energy's National Industrial Competitiveness through Energy, Environment, and Economics Program. The award recognized Beta Control Systems for its outstanding leadership in developing and commercializing the hydrochloric acid recovery system for the steel industry. Link to a web site which features information about the project leading to our award: Pacific NW Pollution Prevention Resource Center  Another award of note: Our customer, Charter Steel, won the Governor's Award for their acid waste reduction efforts. They received this award following the purchase of our Hydrochloric Acid Recovery System and our Sulfuric Acid Recovery System. While we cannot promise your company an award, we can promise your company award winning technology and service. 
A pump forces the spent hydrochloric acid through a Pre-filter and into the evaporator loop, comprised of the Evaporator exchanger and the Separator tank. In the evaporator loop, the spent acid begins to vaporize at approximately 102°C. As the solution increases in concentration, the temperature increases in the loop. When the proper solution temperature/concentration is reached, a ferrous chloride concentrate is withdrawn slowly from the loop and transferred to a storage tank for sale as a solution or for conversion into a solid crystal. Forced by expansion, the hydrochloric acid and water vapors are driven from the Separator and into the Rectifier. The concentration of hydrochloric acid is controlled in this step to return excellent quality acid to the pickling process. The remaining water vapor, stripped of hydrochloric acid, continues its journey into the Condenser where it is sub-cooled and condensed to nearly pure water. This water is reused as rinse water in the pickling process or is returned to the pickling tank with the concentrated hydrochloric acid.
