Oil Refineries Improved Efficiency with Heat Exchangers

heat exchanger for oil refinery by TMVT Introduction Oil refineries are complicated installations that require effective thermal management in order to transform crude oil into different products. Tube and shell heat exchangers play an integral role in this process, making sure that there is optimum heat exchange in various stages. Role in Oil Refineries Shell and tube heat exchangers are used in: Crude Preheating of Oil Before going into the column for distillation crude oil is preheated in order to increase the process of separation. Product Cooling Cooling down refined products prior to packaging or processing. The concept of Heat Recovery The process of extracting heat from hot streams of process to warm up fluids coming in and increase the efficiency of energy. Advantages in Oil Refineries High-Pressure Handling is able to operate under the pressures of high pressures commonly used for refining processes. Effective Heat Transfer The design allow...
