Supplying an excess of water provides oxygen to remove carbon deposits
The basic solution is to identify the presence of carbon buildup in the furnace tubes and heat exchanger tubes; in such cases, it is necessary to operate at a low load while supplying an ample amount of steam in order to remove the carbon buildup. In more severe cases, it may even be necessary to stop the feed process in order to resolve the carbon buildup issue.
The carbon burning method can be used; for example, you can reduce the load to increase the water-to-carbon ratio. Operated with hydrogen for 4 hours
Peroxide carbonization involves a vigorous reaction that damages the catalyst; it is not recommended. I believe catalyst reduction is a way to protect the catalyst during startup and shutdown, which can extend its lifespan and improve the efficiency of the reaction. If peroxide carbonization must be used, it’s better to simply purchase a new catalyst
