Isomerization Process Heater

The isomerization process upgrades the octane number of light naphtha fractions and also simultaneously reduces benzene content by saturation of the benzene fraction. Isomerization complements catalytic reforming process (CCR) in upgrading the octane number of refinery naphtha streams.

The heater designs generally governed by licensor specifications such as UOP, axens or by international specifications.
