Abstract

The analysis of the methods and equipment in which the heating and melting of hydrocarbon mixtures in the pharmaceutical, food and oil refining industries is carried out has shown that reactors, baths, electric heaters, heating chambers, etc. are traditionally used for heating and melting hydrocarbon mixtures. Such methods are time consuming and energy consuming, large temperature gradients are observed, which leads to overheating of one part of the substance and underheating of another. In addition, the process of loading mixtures into boilers and their subsequent unloading is problematic and unsafe for contamination. Often containers with such substances are kept in unheated or poorly heated rooms (warehouses, workshops, etc.) and are too viscous to be unloaded from the container and transported to the next stages of production, which makes it difficult and slows down their melting. Most of the equipment is purchased abroad, for the purchase of which large funds are spent. The discovered existing problems give impetus to the development of new methods and equipment for the implementation of heating and melting processes.
