Use of a high-temperature resistant alloy in an ammonia cracking plant

Abstract

The use of a high-temperature resistant alloy for manufacturing at least one equipment component in an ammonia cracking plant, wherein the at least one equipment component is exposed to pressures of 1 to 100 bar, temperatures of 500 to 1150°C, and contact with an ammonia-containing gas stream having a volume fraction ranging from 5% to 100%; wherein the alloy comprises 30% to 50% by weight of nickel and 20% to 40% by weight of chromium. Use of a high-temperature resistant alloy for making at least one equipment part of an ammonia cracking plant, wherein said at least one equipment part is exposed to a pressure of 1 to 100 bar, to a temperature of 500 to 1150 °C and to contact with a stream having an ammonia content that ranges from 5% to 100% by volume; wherein said alloy comprises 30% to 50% by weight of nickel and 20% to 40% by weight of chromium.
