Description:

Minimizing air emissions on catalytic processes in the Hydrocarbon Processing Industry (HPI) is most effectively achieved by reducing these processes’ dependence on large fired heaters and coolers. Highly efficient plate heat exchangers (PHE) can recycle more waste heat from a chemical reactor’s effluent stream to its feed stream, lowering to a minimum the need for additional heating and cooling. PHE’s minimize air emissions on these processes by addressing the problem at the source. Further, when the catalytic process is exothermic, it is possible to envision a total elimination of the fired heater and of its associated air emissions. Annual stack emissions reductions of 10,000 tons to 60,000 tons of CO2 equivalent have been realized by PHE’s on numerous HPI projects.
