What is the density threshold above which slurry is not suitable for reprocessing?
Thread Content
At what density above which is the slurry unsuitable for reprocessing? At what density below which must the slurry be reprocessed? Is 1000 kg/m3 a suitable threshold? Is there still value in reprocessing it if it’s below 990? Residual carbon is also a key parameter; generally, what level should it not exceed for reprocessing? Is a 7–8% threshold acceptable? Talk about the slurry quality data of your unit as well. Typically, it is 1000 plus or minus 10; the residual carbon content is 7–11%, with a value around 9 being common.
Here, if the density of the oil slurry is within 1000 plus or minus 10, it is sent back for reprocessing; it’s a shame to discard it.
The density is generally kept below 1.02
Here, the density of the oil slurry is kept at or below 1.05; it is all sent outside. We use heavy oil catalysis
It is not recommended to reprocess the slurry; it is generally fed into the coking process
We are testing the oil slurry as a fuel oil for furnaces, but the nozzles tend to clog easily, and a large amount of dust accumulates on the furnace tubes, which affects thermal efficiency; therefore, regular cleaning is necessary! Sometimes it is also blended with crude oil in a certain proportion; the density of crude oil is usually around 950, while there are no specific parameters for the oil slurry, but it’s roughly around 1100!
