Thermal processes in visbreaking units and delayed coking units (DCU) proceed at high temperatures, resulting in the coke deposits formation on the inner surfaces of furnaces, heat exchange equipment and nozzles, reducing the efficiency of the process.
A mechanical decoking method is often used to eliminate the problem, in which it is necessary to stop the unit for repairs unscheduled. It leads to additional labor costs and economic losses during downtime.
To increase the plants operation energy efficiency and run life, it is necessary to use special reagents. IFOTOP specialists studied all compositions in detail and developed the most effective ways to combat coke formation and polymerization. They will not only reduce costs, but also improve the performance of visbreaking and DCU.
