Description

Coke Inventory is maintained by circulating the Bed Coke from the Reactor to the Heater via the Cold Coke Transfer Line.

The Flexigas exits the Heater Overhead and goes to Steam Generation, to Dry/Wet Particulate Removal, and to Desulfurization in the integrated FLEXSORB™
Process. The Clean Flexigas is then ready for use as Fuel in Refinery Boilers and Furnaces and/or for Steam and Power Generation.

The excess Coke in the Heater is transferred to the Gasifier.

Only a small amount of Product (1% weight on Fresh Feed) is collected as Fines from the Flexigas and purged from the Heater to extract Feed Metals.
