Abstract

See full text

Methods, systems, and apparatus for cooling particulates are provided. The method can include introducing particulates to a heat exchanger containing a tube bundle having a plurality of tubulars, introducing a coolant to the plurality of tubulars through a coolant inlet, flowing the particulates through the shell side of the heat exchanger, and contacting at least a portion of the particulates with the tube bundle. The method can also include recovering a heated coolant from the coolant outlet and recovering cooled particulates from the particulate outlet. The heat exchanger can include a vessel having an elongated shell having a first end, a second end, one or more sidewalls, a shell side particulate inlet disposed in the one or more sidewalls for receiving particulates, a shell side particulate outlet disposed adjacent the second end for discharging cooled particulates, and a tube bundle including a plurality of tubulars disposed within the vessel.
