REACTOR AND HEATER CONFIGURATION SYNERGIES IN PARAFFIN DEHYDROGENATION PROCESS

摘要

An apparatus for heating a process fluid is presented. The apparatus is for improving the foot-print of a fired heater and to reduce the fired heater volume. The apparatus includes a W-shaped process coil to provide for a smaller single-cell fired heater, and a fired heater with a lower profile, providing flexibility in positioning relative to downstream reactors.
