A method of reducing the amount of fuel gas during operation of the oil fire furnaces

摘要

The rational use of resources and energy in the oil refining process is largely determined by the efficiency of the technological equipment. In the conditions of the Far North, with a sharply continental climate, at low negative temperatures, the operation of technological furnaces is carried out with very high energy consumption, which indicates the use of equipment in suboptimal conditions. Loss reduction is possible due to heat recovery through the use of heat from combustion products, through heat exchange between product streams and the use of low potential waste heat. In this work, an analysis of the operation of a technological oil heating furnace was carried out, the main parameters affecting the consumption of fuel gas were identified, a method for reducing the cost of natural fuel gas by introducing a recuperator was proposed.
