Targeted liquid injection improves shed deck performance
This case study shows how the installation of an unique piping and lance design achieved targeted liquid injection, quenched vapor hot zones and reduced resid entrainment into the heavy coker gasoil product.
Micro-alloyed steel: New standard for reformer tubes
Reformer furnace tubes are designed to operate under high temperature and pressure. Historically, these tubes exhibit improved creep resistance at higher temperatures. The improvements in creep resist..
Manoir Industries to supply catalyst tubes for Kirchner Italia ammonia project in Russia
This equipment supplied by Manoir Industries will be installed in the new primary reformer heater of Haldor Topsoe design for the largest ammonia plant in the Russian Federation.
Improve the cracking of ethylene dichloride
The discovery and exploitation of shale gas in North America is providing a boost to the domestic petrochemical industry. In particular, commodity petrochemicals such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) are e..
BETE obtains ASME code certification for boilers, pressure vessels
BETE is the first spray nozzle company to obtain these ASME and National Board stamps.
GEA to deliver heat exchangers for Yamal LNG
The order was for more than 400 air cooled heat exchangers for the three-line LNG plant under construction on the Siberian peninsula of Yamal. GEA BTT will design the heat exchangers, manufacture them over a period of three years, and deliver them to the customer (Technip and JGC).
Reduce moisture intrusion in pipes, tanks and other equipment
Once water enters the system, even at high temperatures, the insulation system can retain large quantities of water. That can then lead to accelerated heat gain or loss.
Consider new steam system corrosion protection for refineries
New technology in volatile filming corrosion inhibitors and lower-salting neutralizing amines can provide cost-effective solutions for the steam-condensate system and minimize the risk of amine chloride salt formation.
Case study: Service life assessment of boiler superheater tubes
Boilers are used in petrochemical facilities to generate steam that can be used to meet process and utility requirements. Many industrial boiler designs can be shop assembled and are therefore referre..
Consider automation to check shell-and-tube heat exchanger design
This automated checklist tool can be used to quickly check the acceptability of your design configuration based on the various project, client and services requirements.
