Improving asset life, safety and CO2 emissions with robotic cleaning solutions
How clean is clean? Oftentimes, refineries accept asset cleanliness levels of 30, 40 or 50%.
In this first-look webinar hosted by Tube Tech International, find out why you should be setting your fouling removal standard at a minimum of 90% clean, the operational and environmental benefits new fouling removal technology can deliver.
Chat with the R&D team behind the multi-million-dollar R&D investment. Next-generation robotics and Shell Side Jet – launching in 2020 to deliver the world’s first solution to guarantee cleaning of the external shell side to near-design thermal efficiency.
Why we need to raise standards in fouling removal:
Fired heaters require more energy than any other asset on site, and if a fired heater is even one or two percent inefficient, it can consume over a million dollars in fuel over the course of a year. Higher fuel consumption also results in a higher stack temperature. A higher stack temperature causes heat stress on tubes, creating uneven expansion and irregular heat distribution, which potentially leads to tube failure.
By adopting automated, engineered solutions, asset life is significantly increased while safety standards are also improved. The result is often a dramatic drop in stack temperature which improves throughput, a reduction in CO2 emissions and an asset that is restored to near design thermal efficiency.
Tube Tech International are experts in the field of fouling removal techniques and aim to show you how robotic methods are improving industry standards and providing clients around the world with six-figure savings.
