  • Publication number: 20220162735
    Abstract: The present invention is a method to treat an external layer on a steel or stainless steel substrate. More particularly the disclosure provides a method to increase the amount of manganochromite spinel (Cr2MnO4) in the outer most surface of a steel or a stainless steel. The present disclosure seeks to provide a process to prepare a treatment of an external surface on a steel or stainless steel substrate by subjecting the surface to an atmosphere of steam and air or synthetic air (a combination of oxygen and other inert gases such as nitrogen or argon) while subjecting the substrate to a static electrical charge from +7.0 to +14.0 kV. The present disclosure also seeks to provide the coated substrate.

  • Publication number: 20220119933
    Abstract: An anti-coking surface having a thickness up to 15 microns comprising from 15 to 50 wt. % of MnCr2O4 (for example manganochromite); from 15 to 25 wt. % of Cr0.23Mn0.08Ni0.69 (for example chromium manganese nickel); from 10 to 30 wt. % of Cr1.3Fe0.7O3 (for example chromium iron oxide); from 12 to 20 wt. % of Cr2O3 (for example eskolaite); from 4 to 20 wt. % of CuFe5O8 (for example copper iron oxide); and less than 5 wt. % of one or more compounds chosen from FeO(OH), CrO(OH), CrMn, Si and SiO2 (either as silicon oxide or quartz) and less than 0.5 wt. % of aluminum in any form provided that the sum of the components is 100 wt. % is provided on steel.

  • Publication number: 20190309228
    Abstract: Crackers for hydrocarbon such as naphtha and C2-C4 paraffins contain a radiant section and a convection section. The exhaust gases leaving the radiant section pass through the convection. Generally fouling from the convection section was low relative to fouling (e.g., coke build up) in the radiant section. With improved metallurgy and operating conditions, the time between decokes of the radiant section has increased and now there is a need to reduce fouling from the convection section. This may be achieved by using stainless steel, and particularly high nickel, high chrome stainless steel in the passes in the convection section.
