Certified Surplus Metals is a trusted buyer of used, surplus, and scrap heat exchangers from industrial facilities, power plants, refineries, and chemical operations across the United States. We specialize in purchasing shell and tube heat exchangers, plate and frame units, and high-alloy exchangers for recycling, refurbishment, or silver-bearing recovery — ensuring your equipment’s residual value is maximized.
With 20+ years of industry experience, we understand the complexities of industrial decommissioning and plant maintenance. Whether you’re removing a single exchanger or coordinating a complete facility cleanup, our team provides a fast, compliant, and profitable recycling solution.
Heat exchangers contain valuable metals such as copper, stainless steel, titanium, nickel alloys, and brass. Instead of letting those assets sit unused or selling to a local scrap yard for less, Certified Surplus Metals offers direct purchase pricing based on metal composition, configuration, and recoverable content — ensuring you receive top market value for every pound.
We buy all types of heat exchangers, including:
Tube & Shell Heat Exchangers
Plate & Frame Heat Exchangers
Air-Cooled and Oil-Cooled Units
Reboilers, Condensers, and Feedwater Heaters
Titanium, Tantalum, Inconel, and Stainless Steel Exchangers
Each unit is evaluated for both reuse potential and scrap recovery value, giving you multiple ways to profit from decommissioned equipment.
Many heat exchangers are built from high-nickel alloys and non-ferrous metals that command premium recycling value. Our in-house recovery process separates and categorizes materials by metal type, ensuring you get paid for every recoverable ounce.
We regularly buy and process materials such as:
Copper & Brass Tubes
304L, 316L, 321, and 317 Stainless Steel
Inconel, Incoloy, and Monel
Alloy 20 (Carpenter 20)
Titanium, Tantalum, and Zirconium
Even heavily fouled or corroded exchangers can yield significant scrap value when properly disassembled and processed.
