Abstract: This paper introduced the situation of stabilization tower reboiler furnace of a refinery company and the furnace baking process. It studied the traditional method for steam passing through the furnace tube. It was found that after adopting this method, the furnace outlet temperature was too high or the furnace temperature was too low, which affected the furnace baking effects. Previous furnace baking practice also confirmed the above problems. To solve these problems, a new baking method for furnace was studied. That is, using deoxygenation water vaporization as furnace tube protection medium for furnace baking. Through theoretical research, this method was completely feasible. After practical test, it fully met the requirements of baking furnace curve and good baking furnace effect was achieved. Steam consumption during furnace baking was reduced. This has achieved good effect of energy saving and consumption reduction. The new method for furnace baking can be widely used in reboiler furnace.

Key words: reboiler furnace, baking furnace, furnace chamber temperature, furnace outlet temperature, energy saving and consumption reduction
