Valves for different applications in refining industry
Insights into refining
How to improve valve service life in Catalyst Cracking Units
A catalyst, by definition, is a substance that enhances a chemical reaction. In the refining industry, catalysts are extensively used in many upgrading processes. One common upgrading process in refineries is the Fluid Catalytic Cracking unit (FCC) unit, which converts heavier distillation cuts into lighter, more profitable products, such as gasoline. This unit has many severe service valve applications that require special attention to design and material selection.
Consider partnering with Neles for Resident engineer services
At Neles, we understand the challenges you face to maintain your installed base of valves on a day-to-day basis.
Experience matters in valve sizing and selection
All too often, valve sizing and selection tools are based on standard equations and rules of thumb shaped by performance data collected under laboratory conditions. While laboratory data may be considered extremely accurate, they are no substitute for real-world data collected under actual operating conditions over an extended period of time.
