Issues regarding the setting of operation time for modern chemical plants
Thread Content
Is it more reasonable to design the current equipment’s annual operating days or annual operating time based on 8,000 hours or 7,200 hours? Some people suggest that foreigners generally use a device capacity based on 7,200 hours or 300 days.
There is generally no definitive answer to this; the process package will provide instructions. Whether it is 7200 or 8000 depends on the workload, maintenance time, and tasks involved during shutdowns for maintenance.
It depends on the industry; it is determined based on different production models
Is it more reasonable to design modern chemical plants based on 8,000 hours of operation? Are there any relevant guidelines?
