Description
Excerpt from Construction and Operation of a Single-Tube Cracking Furnace for Making Gasoline
It is recommended that prospective users of this process first con struct an experimental plant consisting of a single-tube furnace. This is deemed advisable in order that the necessary adjustments and refinements in construction and in operation, which will be required to obtain maximum yield from the particular oil to be treated, can be determined, so that a battery of such furnaces of maximum efficiency may later be erected at minimum cost.
Plates V to X (p. 16) show the essential features of a one-tube installation. It is not expected that the licensee will follow these drawings to the letter, as he will no doubt have numerous materials and fittings about his refinery which he may substitute for many of those shown on the plans. The drawings are therefore furnished merely as a guide to enable the licensee to erect an experimental plant that will cover the essential features of the process.
