Since the company does not have heavy oil hydrogenation facilities, the fuel oil-fired heaters in its atmospheric and vacuum distillation units face the problem of excessive sulfur content in the exhaust gases emitted by these heaters. In order to reduce costs, the company decided to purchase a batch of low-sulfur coal tar to use as fuel for the heaters. Dear sea friends, what modifications are needed for the nozzles and fuel oil systems when using wax burning oil (residue oil)? What are the precautions to take during the burning of coal tar? Thank you, my dear friends. . .
