Cetek high emissivity coating for fired heater refractory

Is your fired heater limited by bridge wall temperature, or firing duty? Instead of a full scale revamp, we may address these issues may by the application of Cetek’s High Emissivity Ceramic Coatings to the refractory surfaces. Cetek High Emissivity Ceramic Coatings provide improved ...

Enhanced SMR efficiency: fuel & emissions reduction delivers a sustainable decade-long benefit

Furnace Efficiency Specialist Larry Emch recalls an application where IGS reduced SMR fuel consumption by 2%, leading to lower CO2 and NOx emissions. This sustainable decade-long benefit was achieved with the application of a Cetek refractory encapsulation coating within the SMR's radiant ...

Furnace convection section robotic cleaning improves energy efficiency

Excessive fouling in the convection section of fired heaters and furnaces results in higher fuel consumption to achieve the required output. This causes high stack temperatures, reduced heat transfer, and increased emissions, which can lead to government fines and environmental damage. ...

Hot spot repair - online fired heater refractory repair

Hot Spot Repair in Live Heaters. Hot spots in the shell of the fired heater limit capacity and can cause a forced shutdown. Our experienced global team mobilizes at short notice to repair refractory online. What is Refractory Failure? The refractory may fail prematurely due to the ...

How a refinery improved their CCR catalytic reformer unit efficiency by 9%

A refinery in South Africa was experiencing high bridgewall temperature in their CCR unit because of process tube scaling. They needed a solution with a clear return on investment. Watch the video to see how this was accomplished.

How IGS solutions increase refinery efficiency and reduce Co2 emissions

Edwin Blom, Executive Advisor of IGS, discusses the importance of reducing CO2 emissions for refineries and the various solutions that can help achieve this global initiative while maintaining high refinery efficiency.

Optimizing heat flux distribution to prevent heater tube coking with dual emissivity Cetek coatings

Cetek’s patented Dual Emissivity Ceramic Coating technology manipulates and optimizes the heat flux distribution in DCU heaters which would otherwise be susceptible to coking inside tubes. We designed the dual emissivity coating system to maximize benefits based on the coking pattern ...
