PROCESS FOR INITIATING OPERATIONS OF A SEPARATION APPARATUS

摘要

One exemplary embodiment can be a process for initiating operations of a separation apparatus. The process may include passing a hydrocarbon carrier having a sulfiding agent through an exchanger for heating the hydrocarbon carrier prior to entering a stripper. Optionally, the hydrocarbon carrier can be passed through a cold side of the exchanger, and a bottom stream from a fractionation column may be passed through a hot side of the exchanger.
