LEVEL MEASUREMENT IN DELAYED COKING UNITS Reliable level control and improved utilization of drum capacity

MEASURING THE LEVEL IN DELAYED COKING UNITS The delayed coker is the only semi-continuous batch process in the refinery, which means that the feed is continuously switched between two drums in a time-based cycle. The fresh feed, usually from the vacuum tower bottoms, is fed to the bottom of the coker fractionation tower to help pre-heat the feed and mixed with the bottom hydrocarbons. This mixture is then passed to the heater to apply the energy required to thermally crack the large hydrocarbon chains. After that the heated resid is pumped to large drums to allow for the cracking and expansion...
