Description:
Have your fouling abatement solutions relied on trial and error? Has sampling been ineffective or impossible and resulted in inconclusive or misleading results? Do you fear that changing the grading scheme in your reactor will not solve your fouling issues and lead to worse conditions? If so, there may be an opportunity to improve your operations and boost your margin. Fouling of catalyst beds causes unwanted pressure drop increases that limit the performance of many hydroprocessing units. The resultant issues can include short run lengths, unplanned downtime costs, unused catalyst activity, increased maintenance and lost revenue. Fouling occurs in different locations, including the reactor top, the feed and effluent heat exchangers, the reaction section air coolers, the high-pressure separator and the recycle gas compressor. Knowledge of the type of fouling and the underlying deposition mechanism is essential for tackling fouling problems. At Shell Global Solutions, we leverage our 25 years of dedicated research and experience in fouling abatement with Shell-affiliated, Shell-serviced and non-Shell refineries to help you identify the root cause of fouling and to select the right strategy for fouling abatement, outside and inside the reactor, and to develop solutions.
