The primary reformer is a key piece of equipment in the production of synthetic components and is widely used in the conversion process of natural gas, field gas, or light oil. The refractory lining inside the primary reformer must withstand high-temperature, high-pressure environments, possess excellent thermal insulation and erosion resistance, in order to ensure smooth operation during the reaction process.
Challenges Faced
• High Temperature and Erosion: The primary reformer operates at temperatures ranging from 900 to 1050°C, which leads to the erosion of the lining material, causing it to peel or become damaged.
• Thermal Insulation Performance: Under high-temperature conditions, traditional refractory bricks and castables have poor thermal insulation performance and insufficient durability.
• Complicated Installation and Maintenance: The installation of traditional refractory materials is complex, with a long installation period and high maintenance costs.
CCEWOOL Refractory Ceramic Fiber Block System Solution
The CCEWOOL Refractory Ceramic Fiber Block System, launched by CCEWOOL, has become an ideal lining material for primary reformers due to its high-temperature resistance, wind erosion resistance, and superior thermal insulation performance.
• High Temperature Resistance and Wind Erosion Resistance: The zirconia-alumina and zirconium-based refractory ceramic fiber blocks can operate stably in environments ranging from 900 to 1050°C. They effectively resist airflow erosion and chemical corrosion, reducing the frequency of liner damage.
• Exceptional Thermal Insulation Performance: The low thermal conductivity of the modules effectively isolates heat, reducing heat loss, optimizing energy use, and improving the thermal efficiency of the reaction process.
• Easy Installation: The modular design, combined with welded stainless steel anchors and quick installation, simplifies the installation process and avoids the complicated construction associated with traditional refractory materials.
• Excellent Durability and Stability: The CCEWOOL Refractory Ceramic Fiber Block System has excellent impact resistance and high-temperature stability, ensuring that the liner remains intact and does not degrade over long-term use. The insulation thickness can reach up to 170mm, enhancing the stability of the furnace.
