AIChE Spring Meeting and Global Congress on Process Safety
2009
2009 Spring Meeting & 5th Global Congress on Process Safety
The 21st Ethylene Producers’ Conference
Ethylene Plant Rotating Equipment Paper Session
Monday, April 27, 2009 - 8:35am to 9:05am
This paper includes a review of the benefits of integrating a Gas Turbine Generator with the Cracking Furnaces in an ethylene unit, review of critical design considerations for proper integration, and discussion of associated emissions issues.
Review of benefits will include:
· Effective GTG cycle efficiency
· Impact of integration on Cracking Furnace
o Fuel Firing
o Steam Production
o Thermal Efficiency
· Overall site benefits
Review of critical design considerations will include:
· Full range of GT operations
· Full range of Cracking Furnace operations
· Emergency/upset conditions
· Provisions for maintenance
Discussion of associated emissions issues will include:
· NOx emissions impact of non-integrated and integrated
· CO2 emissions impact of non-integrated and integrated
