Endothermic Gas Generator Turndown Control System

SSi AutoGen

The SSi AutoGen Endothermic Gas Generator Control System significantly reduces costs by ensuring that an Endothermic Gas Generator only produces the volume of gas that is demanded from the furnaces it supplies. It guarantees permanent supply of stable, high quality endothermic gas from 15% to 100% of the maximum capacity of the generator. A cleaner, drier, more stable carrier gas can reduce furnace recovery/cycle times, reduce reworked batches, improve process repeatability and product quality, and reduce furnace maintenance costs. Predictive maintenance of the catalyst and retort reduces downtime and maintenance costs. Unnecessary maintenance intervals are eliminated and the retort and catalyst could last longer.

A large, easy-to-use, highly visual interface provides key real-time and historical data to operators, maintenance, and management at all times. Operator error is minimised and all safety metrics are continuously monitored, interlocked, and alarmed.

The SSi AutoGen controls all aspects of the endothermic gas generator, including temperature control (with controlled ramp-rate), pressure control, air/gas flow and ratio control, dew point control, startup, shutdown and regeneration.
