Furnace Improvements Services (FIS) is a full service engineering and consulting company, hav-
ing completed over 300 engineering studies and projects. FIS currently has a team of 45 skilled engi-
neers on board with offices in Sugar Land, TX and in New Delhi, India. We have experience in design

FIS Technologies
Fired Heaters develop many problems during operation. They are capacity limitation, unstable
combustion, high tube skin temperatures, premature coking, and high stack temperature. To com-
bat these issues FIS has developed and patented three different technologies to solve most of these
issues.
Revamping
Revamping fired heaters is a practical and effective way to improve heater performance, debot-
tlenecking, and increase capacity. FIS focuses on working with existing components and as a result,
investment and downtime is minimized. Revamping provides:
♦ Longer Run Length
♦ Capacity Increase

♦ NOx Emission Reduction

Before After
Working Methodology
A fired heater revamping project typically has the following phases:
Phase I → Engineering Study with +/- 30% Cost Estimates.
Phase II → Project Design Basis Report +/- 10% Cost Estimates.
Phase III → Detailed Engineering and Project Services, Procurement, Fabrication and
Erection.
FIS can undertake complete turnkey projects including erection.
Case Study FIS was hired to improve the efficiency of a Platformer Heater. The stack
temperatures were over 1100°F. Thermal efficiency of the heater was only 66%.
The client evaluated the conventional preheater parallel scheme and FIS Split Flow
Technology. They chose FIS’ patented Split Flow Technology, which divides the process
fluid into parallel two streams.
Improvements were:
♦ Increased capacity by 33%
♦ Improved thermal efficiency from 67% to 86%
♦ Lower pressure drop
The installation costs were half compared to that of the conventional series flow de-
sign. The job was completed in October 2002 and has been running without any prob-
lems .
