Abstract
A furnace construction for cracking of saturated hydrocarbon feed stocks to olefinic product mixtures, wherein the reaction lines of such furnace are fabricated of a ceramic refractory feed inlet pipe coaxially located with a ceramic refractory tube to define an annular space there between which in part is located without and within the radiant heating firebox volume of such furnace, this to provide for a zone wherein hot cracked olefin product gas is quenched in temperature in such annular space outside of such firebox and a cracking zone within the firebox within which hydrocarbon feed is cracked to an olefin containing product gas composition. The ceramic refractory material construction permits of such pipe-tube reaction line structure to be exposed to a much greater heat/temperature content of which the firebox is capable than reaction lines of metallic construction. Cracking predominantly occurs within the annular space, meaning that the cylindrical ceramic refractory structures may be of diameters sufficient to provide for high strength structures. The greater firebox temperatures permitted with a refractory allows for the use of a shorter reaction line structure.
