摘要: An apparatus for heating petroleum, petrochemical, chemical process fluids, and boiler feed water or steam generation with a combination, or individual operation, of electrical elements and fired burners. The apparatus includes a radiant heating section and a flue gas stack for exhausting a combustion gas to the atmosphere. The radiant section includes one or more process coils, one or more fuel-fired burners for combusting a fuel and producing the combustion gas, where the one or more fuel-fired burners are arranged to provide radiant energy to a first area of the one or more process coils, and one or more electrical heating elements arranged to provide radiant energy to a second area of the one or more process coils. The one or more electrical heating elements are configured to provide 5% or more of a combined maximum energy output of the fuel-fired burners and the electrical heating elements.

摘要: A heater includes a convection section with columns and tube sheets coupled to the columns with tubes received in the tube sheets. The convection section includes a space between the tube sheets associated with corresponding pairs of columns. A structural frame is coupled to the columns and positioned in the space to slidably receive one or more catalyst support beds for loading or unloading a catalyst into the convection section through a lateral side of the convection section of the heater. The structural frame may include beams, struts, slide plates, and other frame elements that assist with supporting the catalyst support beds and enable sliding of the catalyst support beds with respect to the structural frame.

摘要: An inline static mixer includes an outer tube and an inner tube positioned inside the outer tube and arranged coaxially with respect to the outer tube with a space between the inner and outer tubes. The inner tube is operable to receive and convey a hydrocarbon stream and the outer tube is operable to receive and convey a diluent stream. At least one baffle extends from the inner tube toward the outer tube and through at least a portion of the space that is operable to generate a twisted diluent flow from the diluent stream. The twisted diluent flow and the hydrocarbon stream are mixed downstream of an outlet of the inner tube with the twisted diluent flow forming a boundary layer along an internal surface of the outer tube to minimize fouling from liquid or liquid droplets of the hydrocarbon stream after mixing.

摘要: Systems and processes for external combustion air preheating for providing preheated combustion air to a furnace. The furnace systems convective heating section includes multiple heating coils for waste heat recovery. The heating coils may be used for preheating a feed (feed preheat coils), heating a boiler feed water, superheating steam, or heating or superheating a feed stream prior to the feed being fed to the radiant coil. The waste heat in the combustion gas is also used to heat a heat transfer fluid, which may be used to pre-heat combustion air or for other purposes within the plant.
