Sustainable steel/chemicals production: Removal of impurities for valorization of steel mill gases
Industry faces significant challenges relating to the transition toward cleaner energy and more sustainable feedstocks.
Use CFD analysis to evaluate the impact of hot air recirculation on air-cooled heat exchangers
Air-cooled heat exchangers are widely used in the petroleum, petrochemical, natural gas and other industries for cooling purposes. In contrast to a water-cooled system, which consists of a traditional shell-and-tube heat exchanger and a cooling tower, an air-cooled heat exchanger uses ambient air as the main cooling medium.
HRSG water/steam sampling: Do it right or face potential consequences
Many large industrial facilities—including refineries, and chemical and petrochemical plants—are increasingly turning to co-generation for process steam and power production.
BASF and MAN Energy Solutions enter into partnership for construction of one of the world’s largest heat pumps in Ludwigshafen
This project is intended to make an important contribution to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, establishing the use of low-CO2 technologies in chemical production and reducing the site’s natural gas consumption.
Lummus Technology launches next generation of breech-lock high-pressure heat exchanger closure
Lummus Technology announced the launch of its Polaris breech-lock closure, a new technological upgrade applicable to its high-pressure heat exchanger equipment.
Uncommon lessons: Shell-and-tube heat exchangers—Part 2
Shell-and-tube heat exchangers (STHEs) are the most common heat transfer process equipment in all types of industrial plants.
Preferential baffle reboiler—Part 2
Distillation towers consume ~30% of the energy in a refinery or petrochemical facility. The reboiler is the stomach of the distillation tower that consumes the energy to separate the components.
Overview of decarbonization pathways for the oil and gas and petrochemical industries—Part 1
This two-part article will cover the seven pathways to decarbonizing the oil and gas and petrochemical industries.
