It is recommended to discuss plans for using natural gas as a substitute fuel oil in petrochemical enterprises

At present, some petrochemical companies plan to use natural gas as a substitute for fuel oil. However, how to integrate natural gas fuel systems with the existing fuel systems is a problem facing these companies; it is recommended that discussions be held on plans to use natural gas as a substitute for fuel oil in petrochemical industries

What do you mean? Is it a substitute for fuel or something else?

What more needs to be done? Just modify your topic – isn’t that a great subject for discussion?

It can be said that nowadays, petrochemical companies should use gas as fuel, with oil being used very rarely. Just change the burner~

Everything is being modified now; most use gas. Using oil is not only wasteful but also causes scaling issues that require cleaning, making it troublesome to use. Only a few industries that require high temperatures, such as aluminum production, still use heavy oil.

Our plant uses gas produced internally; catalytic and other units generate components with carbon numbers lower than three. The compounds with carbon number three are used for the production of polypropylene, while those with carbon numbers two and one are fed into a dry gas liquefaction and desulfurization unit to recover sulfur. The purified dry gas is then used as fuel for us. If there are fluctuations in the pressure of the fuel gas, we can switch to natural gas; however, natural gas comes at a cost, so using dry gas is a better option

These days, domestically produced dry gas is generally used; why do you still use natural gas? We have upgraded our gas boilers to replace some of the coal

We are severely short of gas, but natural gas isn’t something that’s easy to obtain; we really would like to use it.
