Overview
The oil pre-heater heats heavy feedstock oil before it enters the cracking furnace. It reduces viscosity, supports stable operating conditions and contributes to product quality and carbon black yield.
The equipment comprises a cylindrical shell with internal tubes and is typically installed downstream of the air pre-heater. Smoke gas is used as the heating medium to raise the oil to the required temperature, commonly in the 200 to 350 degree Celsius range.
