APPLICATION CONTEXT

Start from the operating basis.

Gas-gas and liquid-liquid exchangers engineered around thermal duty, pressure drop, corrosion and plant integration. TMCE treats the process duty, equipment, materials, utilities, controls and maintainability as one connected system.

Final capacity, performance, emissions, material and utility figures are project-specific. They are confirmed after the feed, site and operating envelope have been reviewed.

ENGINEERING SEQUENCE

Develop the system in connected stages.

Each stage is defined with upstream, downstream, utility, control and maintenance interfaces.

01

Define the operating basis

Resolve process, mechanical, utility, control and maintenance requirements for this stage.

02

Select the process / equipment route

Resolve process, mechanical, utility, control and maintenance requirements for this stage.

03

Integrate system interfaces

Resolve process, mechanical, utility, control and maintenance requirements for this stage.

04

Commission and sustain operation

Resolve process, mechanical, utility, control and maintenance requirements for this stage.

DESIGN PRIORITIES

The decisions that shape a reliable system.

01 · DESIGN

Cold-end corrosion and acid dew point

Confirm this requirement against normal, turndown, startup, shutdown and upset conditions.

02 · DESIGN

Gas-side pressure drop

Confirm this requirement against normal, turndown, startup, shutdown and upset conditions.

03 · DESIGN

Thermal expansion and cycling

Confirm this requirement against normal, turndown, startup, shutdown and upset conditions.

04 · DESIGN

Inspection and cleaning access

Confirm this requirement against normal, turndown, startup, shutdown and upset conditions.
