Consistent electric heating can be used to protect against freezing and preserve the heat of the ethylene plant's flare gas regeneration pipeline.
To reduce costs and reduce pollution, petrochemical companies have installed flare gas recycling systems to reuse flare gas. However, due to the moisture contained in the flare gas component of the ethylene plant, freezing and blockage is possible at low temperature in winter, so heat preservation and electric heating must be added to the transport pipeline.

An integral part of the ethylene project is a flare system that ensures safety and environmental protection. The combustible gas emitted by petrochemical plants during normal production and emergency accidents can be called flare gas. To reduce costs and reduce pollution, petrochemical companies have installed flare gas recycling systems to reuse flare gas. However, due to the moisture contained in the flare gas component of the ethylene plant, freezing and blockage is possible at low temperature in winter, so heat preservation and electric heating must be added to the transport pipeline. In 2014, using the example of an electric heating cable that we delivered to the petrochemical plant in Karamay, you will see how to choose a suitable electric heating cable for the flare gas disposal pipeline.
The flare gas of the ethylene plant contains 2.87% moisture, and the pressure drop in the pipeline is only 0.02MPa. If the temperature of the environment is below 20 degrees Celsius, moisture will precipitate, and with prolonged accumulation-to plug the pipeline. We believe that the temperature of the flare gas pipeline is regulated within 25-50 ° C so that the temperature at the end of the gas pipeline cannot be below 25 ° C. The burner gas contains vinyl acetylene, which can explode when overheated, so the maximum controlled temperature does not exceed 60 °C. After a comprehensive comparison, we have selected a series of electric heating cables for this factory.
The operating voltage of the serial electric heating cable is 380 V, which corresponds to the working voltage of the electric heating cable, the method of laying the three electric heating cables in parallel, the heat dissipation of the pipeline is 63.7 W/m, and the total power required for m should be greater than or equal to 63.7 W. The output power per m of the single electric heating cable should be greater than or equal to 21.3 W, because the single core electric heating cable has good work stability and can match the output power. Requirements, single core electric heating cable is selected.
In order to calculate the length of a single electric heating cable, in addition to taking into account the total length of the pipe and the margin ratio, the compensation length is taken into account by the increased heat dissipation of the pipe bracket (compensation for the use of heat-insulated pipe brackets), the increase in pipe knees, the length of the shower, the increase in the length of the portal, etc. D. The compensatory length of the pipe bracket is 3.5 times the length of the pipe diameter, the pipe elbow must be added 1.5 times the length of the pipe diameter, the shower must be added 2.5 times the length of the shower pipe, the power distribution box and the tail must be backup 2 m. Finally, the length of one electric heating cable is determined to be 2000 meters.
Our tandem electric heating tapes have been working reliably and efficiently in this field for many years, keeping the pipe temperature above 25 °C in winter.

Electrical heating installation precautions
Electric heating cable is a heating method that uses insulation resistance or resistance heating wire to create a temperature after power supply. It can automatically adjust the output temperature and reasonably maintain the process temperature requirements to keep warm, raise the temperature and protect the heating equipment from freezing. The insulation and antifreeze effect of the container is very good.
Which electric heating should be chosen for the main pipeline transport of heavy oil
Transport of heavy oil through the pipeline over long distances and long-term retention in the pipeline will result in a drop in temperature due to heat dissipation and increased viscosity, which will cause the pipeline to be blocked by freezing or condensation-related accidents. Electric heating is widely used as effective insulation of pipelines and anti-freeze protection.
Which electric heating cable should be considered for a 4 km pipeline
According to the statistics of the Hydrometeorological Center, the average daily minimum temperature at the location of the CNPC tank farm is 5 ° C, and the average daily maximum temperature is 14 ° C. Since the freezing point of the PX is about 15 °C, the supply pipeline needs heat preservation and heating. The oil depot has been in operation for many years without a stable source of steam, therefore, this project is considering the use of electric heating technology.
Application of outdoor electric heating cable in oil main pipelines with high paraffin content
Long-distance crude oil pipelines with a high paraffin content with freezing temperatures above 50 °C. According to the requirements of the production plan of the plant, the volume of oil transportation through the pipeline is 150 thousand rubles. Tons per year, maximum-200 thousand. Tons per year.. According to the thermodynamic analysis of the pipeline, the initial supply temperature of the pipeline is 80 ° C (TN), and the temperature of the end entering the tank is 60 ° C (Tu). Since the transportation temperature needs to be adjusted according to the time of year, it sometimes needs to be transported by heat.
What heating product to choose for main infusion pipelines
In petrochemical engineering, trunk infusion pipelines are the lifeblood of the factories. The temperature in the northern region is too low in winter and the pipeline needs to be insulated to compensate for the heat loss due to the low temperature in winter to ensure the normal operation of the pipeline.
The role of leather tracer cables in the insulation of asphalt main pipelines
The toughness of the asphalt is greatly affected by the temperature. When the temperature decreases, the toughness of the asphalt increases, and the drop in resistance of the asphalt during pipeline transportation increases; when the temperature falls below the freezing point, the asphalt solidifies, causing the pipeline to clog and the conveyor belt to come to trouble. Therefore, electric heating and heat preservation during the transportation of asphalt are very important.
