Methanol revamping
Normally suitable for capacity increase up to 30%, with focused and effective operation. It is based on maximum use of the existing equipment, leaving the main process line as much as possible unchanged.
Applicable technologies are:
- Prereformer
- Primary Reformer upgrade
- Heat Exchange Reformer (TPR)
- Partial Oxidation Reactor (POx)
- Isothermal Methanol Converter (IMC™)
When Clients demand a huge capacity increase more than 30%, Casale portfolio contains several innovations to achieve such challenging scope. These are:
- CO2 injection (in combination with the Isothermal Methanol Converter (IMC™) in the synthesis loop)
- Autothermal reactor (ATR)
- Once Through Reactor (OTR)
- Isothermal Methanol Converter (IMC™)
Every Casale revamping for capacity increase brings to an overall plant efficiency improvement. Some Casale's interventions are suitable for every revamping target. These are:
- Isothermal Methanol Converter (IMC™)
- Synthesis gas compressor revamp
Revamp focused on improving pollutant emissions in order to cope with the most stringent environmental regulations.
