Alfa Laval Packinox for catalytic reforming - 1

make-up Reformate Recycled Alfa Laval Packinox Naphtha Standard combined feed/effluent heat exchanger Alfa Laval Packinox for catalytic reforming Alfa Laval Packinox supplied the first Standard Combined Feed/Effluent Heat Exchanger to a Catalytic Reforming Unit in 1982. Over a decade later, a report from the client congratulated Alfa Laval Packinox on the heat exchanger’s constant good performance and minimum maintenance requirements. In one piece of equipment, Alfa Laval Packinox large welded plate heat exchangers offer the superior efficiency of plate exchangers together with the resistance to high temperatures and pressures generally associated with Shell & Tubes. Moreover, the compact design of a single Alfa Laval Packinox can replace several tubulars, thus enhancing the impact on capex and opex by cutting installation costs and pressure drop consumption. Alfa Laval Packinox heat exchangers improve the overall economics of greenfield units, and also serve as a low cost retrofitting basis for debottlenecking existing units as Alfa Laval Packinox allows higher duty with lower pressure drop. No other change to the unit’s existing equipment (compressors, heaters, etc.) is needed to obtain higher throughput and/or higher H2 production. As a result of general satisfaction with the performance of Alfa Laval Packinox Standard Combined Feed/Effluent Heat Exchangers in catalytic reforming, Alfa Laval Packinox is now considered the industry standard for CRUs and is specified by the main process licensors for both semi-regenerative and CCR units. Typical process conditions: Flow: 5 000 to 70 000 bpd (with one exchanger) Temperatures: from 80°C (cold end) to 530°C (hot end) Hot approach: as low as 30°C or less Operating pressure: 7 to 45 bars depending on process ÄP in exchanger: 2 to 0.7 bar
