COG Refined BTX Separation and Recovery Process [XP Plate Implementation Case Study]
The initial cost is halved due to miniaturization! Here is an example of replacing with the fully welded plate heat exchanger 'XP Plate'.
We will introduce the COG refined BTX separation and recovery process. In the case where an 8-pass 42m tube is replaced with a 1-pass 2.4m plate, the low-temperature recovery oil is preheated to 143°C through thermal recovery, but it ultimately needs to be raised to around 165°C to efficiently release the BTX components. Although this may seem like only a 22°C difference, the energy cost of the gas heater becomes significantly large. Furthermore, in the replacement from tube type to XP plate, a substantial reduction in pressure loss is expected due to the significantly shorter flow path. Estimates indicate that replacing two tubes with one XP plate will reduce pressure loss by about 100 kPa, resulting in an annual energy savings of 46.2 MWh. Assuming an electricity price of 10 yen/kWh, this translates to a savings effect of 460,000 yen. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
