Crude, Coking
A common theme amongst refiners is the collective desire to avoid unnecessary costs. Exchanger and equipment fouling leads to increased maintenance costs, reduced energy recovery and lower throughput capacity degrading the refiners bottom line. Sonic and ultrasonic technologies are a relatively new tool available to refiners to reduce the energy and cost impact associated with fouling induced performance degradation. Review of multi-year case studies from global refiners will elucidate the energy and cost saving benefits of properly applied ultrasonic technology.
