The syngas industry, vital for producing ammonia, methanol, hydrogen, and synthetic fuels, faces efficiency and profitability challenges from extreme operating environments. High temperatures, pressures, and corrosive materials accelerate equipment deterioration in critical components like steam methane reformers and CO2 absorption towers. With increasing decarbonization regulations, producers must improve energy efficiency and reliability while reducing environmental impact. The best practices outlined in this paper can help reduce energy consumption by 10-15%, extend equipment lifespan, and prevent costly unplanned shutdowns.
