The delayed coker unit (DCU) is a unique unit in the refinery. The typical oil and gas refinery and petrochemical complex runs on continuous processes whereas the DCU is a fundamental batch process that we make continuous by running everything in pairs (or 3 sometimes!?!). As a result, process optimization can take on a whole new complexity. Additional, the solids handling (coke movement) component adds another layer of complexity. The team from Coking.com can help the site optimize its process through expert consulting around,
- Capacity creep and test runs
- Constraint determination and debottlenecking
- Cycle time optimization and reduction
- Balancing heater fouling vs yield and recovery
- Heat integration and energy efficiency
- Enhanced product quality of high value liquid products or coke - premium or fuel grade
- .....and many more
