Naphtha Steam Reforming Catalyst Reduction with MethanolGerard B. Hawkins
Procedure for Naphtha Steam Reforming Catalyst Reduction with Methanol
Scope
This procedure applies to the in situ reduction of VULCAN Series steam reforming catalysts using methanol cracking to form hydrogen over the catalyst in the steam reformer.
The procedure is likely to be applied to plants using only heavier feeds (e.g.: LPG and/or naphtha) and some combination of VULCAN Series catalysts.
Introduction
A small number of steam reforming plants do not have an available source of the commonly used reducing media (e.g.: hydrogen, hydrogen-rich off-gas, natural gas). These plants will usually operate on LPG and/or naphtha feed only where cracking of this hydrocarbon is not usually advised for reduction of the steam reforming catalyst ...
The document is an inspection report of an electrical transfer pump. It summarizes:
1) An inspection was conducted of the pump which included document verification, functional testing at low and high pressures, and verification of calibration certificates.
2) The inspection found the pump to be in good working order, but the bourdon pressure gauge serial number was not marked and needed replacing to meet requirements.
3) Non-conformances were identified regarding certification and testing of the lifting skid and accessories that support the pump. Corrective actions were recommended to address these issues.

The document summarizes the results of a dynamic simulation of a 32-inch multiphase sea line for a South Pars gas field project. The simulation analyzed pipeline behavior at flow rates of 480,000 to 980,000 kg/hr. It found that slug flow occurred at the lower rates and that operation below 500 MMSCFD should be avoided due to increased liquid accumulation. A pigging schedule is recommended if rates below 380 tons/hr are necessary. The minimum differential pressure needed to push liquid through the line is estimated to be 25-35 bar.

A practical approach to pharmaceutical HVAC energy reductionEECO2
This document outlines strategies for reducing energy use in pharmaceutical HVAC systems. It identifies common areas with high energy savings potential, such as reducing air change rates and implementing night/weekend setbacks. Barriers to energy reduction like lack of funding and QA approval are discussed. The presentation recommends hosting team-based "energy kaizens" to identify opportunities and gain stakeholder buy-in.

Pre-commissioning activities refer to tasks completed after construction but before commissioning to prepare systems for operation. They include cleaning, catalyst loading, dry runs, and checks of systems. Records of pre-commissioning tests and checklists are made to verify systems are ready for commissioning. Common pre-commissioning tasks involve flushing, blowing, drying, leak testing, lubrication, equipment run-ins, and filter/catalyst installation. The goal is to achieve a "Ready for Commissioning" milestone where systems are prepared to begin the commissioning process.

This Lean Six Sigma project aims to reduce the specific steam consumption in the MUW plant from 1.40 Gcal/MT to 1.34 Gcal/MT. The project scope covers steam consumption for MUW 1&2, 3 and 4. Data will be collected daily and every shift by shift engineers over a 7 month period from April 2015 to October 2015. Metrics like steam flow, brine concentration, vacuum levels, temperatures and production data will be measured. The data will be used to analyze the current process and identify improvement opportunities to reduce steam consumption.
The document contains a list of typical process equipment used in reforming and catalyst regeneration sections of a refinery, including reactors, columns, vessels, furnaces, heat exchangers, pumps, compressors and blowers. It also provides comparisons of different reforming processes and their key parameters such as RON, reaction pressure, LHSV, H2/HC ratio, yield and cycle length. Finally, it summarizes the assessment of a recommended process/technology for criteria such as performance, reliability, safety, costs and flexibility.
The document provides an overview of topics related to improving boiler performance and extending boiler life. It discusses boiler design considerations for Indian coals, including conservative furnace heat loadings and plain tube arrangements. It also covers life assessment of boilers, combustion optimization measures like minimum flue gas temperature and excess air, and operation and maintenance topics such as valve fundamentals and safety relief valves. Case studies on clinkering buildup issues and questions from attendees are also included.
This document summarizes a student group project on hydrocracking of heavy gas oil. It includes:
- An introduction to hydrocracking and its applications.
- Diagrams of single-stage and double-stage hydrocracking process schemes with recycling.
- Material and energy balances for a hydrocracking process.
- Design calculations and specifications for process equipment like heat exchangers, furnaces, pumps, and separators.
