How much liquefied gas is required per hour for heating a 1.2 million tons/year continuous reforming unit?
Thread Content
1.2 million tons/year continuous reforming unit. One pre-hydrogenation reactor, one evaporator reboiler, one stabilizer reboiler, and one four-in-one reforming reactor; also, how many tons of liquefied gas are required per hour for furnace drying, as well as the maximum and minimum consumption rates per hour. Is there a formula?
What is the thermal load of the furnace? Could you be more specific?
The drying time is calculated based on the furnace drying curve, while the total amount of gas used is determined based on the designed gas flow rate per hour for the heating furnace； During furnace heating, the load on the furnace is around 20~30%, so by multiplying the total amount of gas by 0.2~0.3, an approximate estimate of the liquefied gas required can be obtained. As a precaution, it is advisable to purchase slightly more liquefied gas ； That’s what we did back then; please have other experts add to this...
