The air-fired secondary reformer is essential in natural gas-based ammonia plants as it is the simplest way of introducing the nitrogen required for ammonia synthesis. Unlike the upstream tubular primary reformer, the secondary reformer is adiabatic, and the operating conditions are more severe...
In large-scale methanol plants, each added day of operation is worth as much as a million euros. Plant reliability and availability are of utmost importance. Meeting these needs requires continuous equipment development and process optimization. One of the important pieces of equipment used in the...
Optimized reactor dimensions to ensure optimal conversion with a minimal pressure drop and by-product formation. This results in excellent yields of formaldehyde from the methanol feed.
