Coke Drum Design and Fabrication Issues

Abstract: There are numerous design, materials and fabrication issues which significantly affect the cost, reliability and life of coke drums. Primarily in a pros and cons narrative, this paper discusses many of these critical decisions. It first outlines the potential damage mechanisms resulting from coke drum operation, which are primarily thermal fatigue and bulging and also embrittlement, sulfidation and erosion. Delayed Coking operation is described along with the ever present desire by owners to shorten cycle time… Show more

“…From the instrumented indentation tests, fracture toughness was obtained for two locations (oxide at crack-tip and metal matrix away from the crack), shown in Table 3. Modulus values in this table were determined using the Oliver Pharr method [1]. Modulus near the crack (157 GPa) is very similar to the nominal modulus value for Fe 2 O 3 iron oxide scale, which has E = 151 GPa [3].…”

“…Coke drums are cylindrical-shaped pressure vessels used in the delayed coking process in oil and petroleum refineries. Coke drums are usually fabricated with carbon or low alloy steels, such as C-1/2Mo and 1Cr-1/2Mo, and typically cladded with Type 405 or Type 410S stainless steel on the inner surface [1]. Type 405 stainless steel clad was initially used in older coke drums, but changed to 410S by the end of 1970s.…”
