This invention relates to the field of petrochemicals and discloses a safe preheating
system for the oil removal of a pressure reducing pump. The
system includes a pressure reducing
tower, a pressure reducing pump, a steam purging line, and a dedicated preheating line. A first valve is installed on the dedicated preheating line. A fifth valve, an eighth valve, and a ninth valve are respectively installed on the pressure reducing pump inlet line, sealing line, and vent line. A one-way valve, a seventh valve connected in parallel with the one-way valve, and a sixth valve located at the
tail end are installed on the pressure reducing pump outlet line. The pressure reducing pump inlet line is connected to the outlet of the pressure reducing
tower. The steam purging line is connected to the outlet line of the fifth valve. A fourth valve, a third valve, and a second valve are installed on the
steam line. The two ends of the dedicated preheating line are respectively connected to the outlet line of the fourth valve and the pressure reducing
tower. This safe preheating
system for the pressure reducing pump reduces the steam purging time and steam consumption during the oil removal preheating process. The system allows for quantitative control of each stage of the process by monitoring changes in the pressure at the bottom of the pressure reducing tower, ensuring safe and controllable maintenance.
