How to deal with crystallization on the wall of the main burner pipeline in a heating furnace?

2016-01-14View Original

Thread Content

The furnace uses reforming gas (hydrogen extracted from coke oven gas). After burning for a while, both the main fuel pipeline and the filter get clogged with sludge, which leads to the extinguishment of the flame. The permanent lights are also covered in sludge, along with water; this problem is even more severe in winter when freezing occurs. Is there a solution? Seeking advice from experts

It is caused by low temperature; to increase the temperature of the analysis gas, heat tracing can be considered!

There is heat tracing; this has been taken into account, but it’s not very noticeable

By adding heat tracing, won’t the temperature increase significantly? Or what else?

1. Is it possible to change the internal factors by purifying and removing liquid from the fuel? 2. To adapt using external factors, a simple method is heating and maintaining a constant temperature. 3. The occurrence of such phenomena in winter indicates a close connection with temperature. It’s winter now, and the owners haven’t given enough care and warmth, so I’m feeling emotional. 4. As for the claim that the temperature rise is not noticeable, it can only be said that insufficient thermal energy is supplied or there isn’t enough energy to maintain the temperature. Since the entire fuel pipeline is subject to heat loss, it is necessary to properly address the insulation issues while installing heating elements. Theoretically, no heat loss will occur when the surface temperature of the insulation is equal to the ambient temperature. 5. Eating some ginseng and wearing a cotton-padded jacket will help.

If heat tracing is not available, let the fuel first warm up in the furnace before exiting to burn.

Increasing the temperature of the gas analyzer heater appropriately should be effective; remove the gas filter element
