A new material has proven itself through testing and real-world applications to provide an alternative furnace lining that's reshaping the oil and gas industry. Refractory ceramic fibre (RCF), also known as aluminosilicate wool (ASW), has long been the first-choice material for lining fired heaters in the oil refining and petrochemical industries. It has excellent handleability, low thermal conductivity and heat capacity; superior thermal shock resistance; good resistance to pollutants; and ability to withstand extreme temperatures. These qualities make it ideal for extending the life of fired heaters, increasing their energy efficiency and increasing furnace reliability.
