CO2 reduction in fried equipment
Fired heaters emit millions of tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) every year. Fired heaters usually have a fuel efficiency well below 100%, so any improvements that making them more efficient reduces CO2. Heaters are currently fuelled by carbon-bearing refinery fuel gas or natural gas, so further CO2 reduction is possible by changing to fuels with less carbon content. With the ever-changing regulatory climate, enacting an emissions reduction plan can provide a strategic advantage ...

Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) is an organic chemical which is one of the main components for the production of polyurethanes. Crude MDI is still only commercially produced via the phosgene route and contains three diisocyanate isomers, oligomeric polyisocyanates (tri,tetra,penta ,etc isocyanates), byproducts and impurities. The present market requires separate products or blends thereof to make polyurethanes with a wide range of properties. The MDI splitting plant is responsible ...

Hydrogen fuel conversion in fired equipment
Organizations are facing unprecedented challenges in achieving their strategic climate goals. Now is the time to evaluate options for hydrogen refuelling, efficiency improvements, and novel methods of CO2 reduction in fired heaters and boilers. You can reduce carbon footprints by refuelling fired equipment with hydrogen or ammonia. When planning a refuelling effort there is much more to consider than just the Wobbe Index and combustion performance. The system will experience ...

Restoring production efficiency & NOx reduction by eliminating SCR fouling
Problem: SCR fouling is typically caused by refractory or insulation fibers that accumulate and block the face of the catalyst, eventually leading to substantial flow disruption and excessive pressure drops, typically worsening over time. This pressure drop and flow maldistribution will cause production rate limitations, unplanned outages, and environmental compliance issues, as well as reduce he catalyst life. Solution: Proven methods for keeping SCRs operating efficiently ...

RVP in process: ensure safety, comply with specifications, optimize profits
Pipeline operators, offshore platforms, terminals, fuel depots or oil tankers detect the vapor pressure, before transporting crude oil or other petrochemical products such as Gasoline or LPG for subsequent processing. It is absolutely necessary to know the vapor pressure of the transported substance to prevent costly damage done to the transportation or storage system. Apart from the costs a failure might cause, environmental regulations limit maximum vapor pressure ...

Decarbonization with hydrogen solutions
Demand for hydrogen is expected to increase up to ten-fold by 2050 when multiple industry reports predict 8-24% of the world's final energy demand will be supplied by hydrogen. Hydrogen has a unique ability to address and ˜hard-to-decarbonize' sectors including refining, chemicals, steel, heating, long-haul transport, and long-term power storage and all of which currently produce significant CO2 emissions. To achieve this, hydrogen must be produced with significantly lower carbon ...
