Given that refineries and petrochemical plants are usually operating beyond their limits, heat exchangers are often a bottleneck to increasing capacity or maintaining product split. This paper demonstrates how temporary heat exchangers can be installed to solve these problems and streamline catalyst cooldowns. A case study shows how this solution not only helped a producer avoid steep fines, but also yielded tens of millions of dollars of profit that would otherwise have been lost.
