Becht Fired Heaters

Fired Equipment is integrated into nearly every refining or chemical production process. Heat generated by combustion must be safely and efficiently transferred — typically through costly high alloy coils — to a process stream that may be changing phase or reacting. Fired Heaters usually ...

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 ...

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. ...

Heat Exchangers - we can detect leaks to as low as 1ppm

Tracerco has been at the forefront of online leak detection for the last 50 years and can detect leaks to as low as 1ppm. If you have a leak, we can identify the specific exchanger where it's happening. We can identify which exchanger within a bank is leaking. The method is non-intrusive, ...

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 to fix a tube in a fired heater furnace without SD - Hot Tube Stabilization

Occasionally, tube supports (wall and roof) in the radiant section of process heaters fail, allowing the process tubes to potentially get out of alignment (sagging or bowing) or even worse, rupturing. IGS Hot-tek provides on-line repair service to stabilize the process tubes while the ...

How to increase fired heater heat transfer and energy efficiency

How many times have you been reminded that fired heaters have the greatest running cost of fixed equipment on your site? Most fired heaters experience a drop in thermal efficiency over time with degradation coming from both radiant and convective sections. For many units that can ...

Large crude heater revamp by XRG Technologies

A large crude heater in The Netherlands suffered from reliability, fouling and capacity problems caused by flame impingement. In addition to eliminating this bottleneck, the client wanted to increase heater throughput by 29% and increase fuel efficiency to at least 90%.  XRG evaluated ...
