Burner retrofit increases capacity and cuts costs

摘要

A large refiner on the East coast of the United States was experiencing problems meeting maximum heat release on a natural draft hydrogen reactor feed heater. Due to the refiner's previous positive experience with burner retrofit projects, they contacted US based combustion equipment manufacturer Zeeco and asked for guidance. Zeeco burner experts completed an inspection and noted that several of the burner tips in the heater's existing burners were plugged.
