There are, however, only two fundamentally different types of units. Mo*. 4 and 5 differing fro* the rest in that one of the preheater pots is replaced by e shell sad tube heat exchanger. Although the heat exchanger effected a gaa savings as predicted, it proved ieprectlcel due to carbon and tars fouling the tubes, and the idee use abandoned on the subsequent units. A larger converter pot (sojourn pot) hoe been Installed on Mo. 11 unit to provide additional sojourn tine. This additional ties results in e lower .. temperature for a given conversion ae compared to the other units. The heat input to the unit rewine at a maximum end this extra heat is utilised by the addition of more Mentol feed t; the unit. The reduced pyrolyjis temperatures made possible by the larger pot result ins 1. A 10*15% production increase. 2. Reduction in gas consumption per pound of fiiphseyl produced, 3. Reduction of pot failures and eaintenence cost, 4. Reduced carbon formation, thus permitting better operating efficiency of the unit,, . -' 5. Reduced lead carry over has been observed on die unit equipped with the sojourn pot.

At this point the pressure on Vo. 2 preheater will be approximately BO lbs. and on the converter approximately 60 lfee,, .... The units are usually operated with a 60-70% reflux, with 90% being sat as a larisua. The reflux cools the vapors leaving the top plate below 10C. If 90% reflux does not cool the top plate vapors below 100*C, then it is necessary to cut the feed. Biphenyl froestng points are ubjd as a control point for the liphewyl dis tillation cut.
