Maximize value and successfully revamp a fired heater
Fired heaters are facing scrutiny because they contribute to the global emissions of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) and nitrogen oxides (NO<sub>x</sub>).
Gas-side fouling effects on transfer-line exchangers
Transfer-line exchangers (TLEs) are specific shell-and-tube heat exchangers installed out of hydrocarbons steam cracking furnaces for olefins production.
Tips to avoid pitfalls in CO2 capture projects
In recent years, growing concern about increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2<sub/>) levels has put mounting pressure on governments and on processing industries to curb carbon emissions.
Bolting material bolts-up the exchanger design
Shell-and-tube heat exchangers use multiple girth flange joints based on their Tubular Exchangers Manufacturers Association (TEMA) type to assemble shell and tube sides.
Reliability: Try solving—instead of managing—equipment problems
Good managers manage people who solve problems.
Key considerations for the design and operation of a renewable diesel unit
Designs for the process configuration and operation of the unit are fundamental aspects in the production of renewable diesel.
