Description
The visbreaking tube furnace is the heart of the unit, based on the thermal process of partial cracking of heavy hydrocarbons, and is designed to produce boiler fuel from heavy oil residues by heating them in coil sections at a temperature of about 500 C. These furnaces are among the most complex in oil refining from the point of view of design and manufacture due to the high tendency of heavy oil residues to form deposits in coils.
