Energy-Saving Insulations for Reduced Downtime & Carbon Emissions
Ethylene processing furnaces operate at 2000F (1100C), requiring the most durable, high-performance solutions. We’ve helped customers reduce downtime, cut emissions, and improve efficiency. From our Fiberfrax modules, tovacuum-formed refractory materials, and the energy-saving Alkegen Carbowall System, our solutions are the ideal package to solve customer’s biggest furnace challenges.
Industry & Application: Petrochemical Reformer Furnace Inlet/Oulet Pipes
Challenge:
Traditional insulation for these pipes includes 2 layers of fiber blanket, fixed with stainless steel wire. This product form includes external cladding, rivets, and screws making installation difficult and long assembly time.
Solution:
Alkegen Inlet/Outlet Piping Insulation is a system of pre-formed insulation shapes that are an easy, clamp-together design. The hydrophobic properties also protect piping against Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI), improving longevity.
Inlet/Outlet Pipe Advantages:
6x faster installation system
Eliminate the funneling work
Facilitate inspection of welds
Case Study 3
Industry & Application: CPI/Petrochemical Hydrogen Reformer
Challenge:
Conventional fiber insulation lining lacks durability at high temperatures in reformer furnaces applications.
Solution:
Our Fiberfrax modules paired with Silplate Mass Coating enhance the thermal stability, strength, and durability of the furnace lining.
