Delayed Coker Foam Control

Foam in delayed coker units can cause significant difficulties resulting in throughput restrictions, off-specification products, and in cases of foam carry-over, the possibility of significant fouling. Foam exists in coke drums as the hot vapors of the disengaging gasses separate from the pitch in the coke drum. Nalco Water has developed products and application strategies to reduce foaming and its impacts.
