Process design considerations for green ammonia manufacturing
To fulfill the climate goals of limiting the rise in global temperatures, green hydrogen has emerged as an alternate unconventional fuel.
Design considerations and decarbonization options for fired heaters
As greenhouse gas emissions policies and regulations become more stringent, carbon dioxide emissions have taken center stage, with many nations targeting net-zero carbon emissions.
A CFD study on the effect of operating an SMR furnace without one of the flue gas tunnels A
A computational fluid dynamics study was performed on a theoretical reforming furnace to determine the comparative results of flow uniformity in flue gas tunnels with and without a standing tunnel in the outer position.
How to gain an advantage from the propylene production gap—Part 2
This work will detail the available processing routes capable of maximizing propylene yield in refineries, allowing refiners to gain advantage from the propylene market.
Implementing digital lifecycle solutions to improve performance and plant operations
Most of us have used licensed software—whether a personal computer operating system, a word processor or something less mainstream—consistently.
Automation technology supports growing demand for green diesel
The search to find alternatives to petroleum-based transportation fuels is nothing new.
Cloning design provides plug-and-play approach for carbon capture
Carbon capture has the potential to significantly decarbonize emissions from industrial facilities.
