MUMBAI, India, Nov. 14 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517094503 A) filed by Lummus Technology Llc, Bloomfield, U.S.A., on Oct. 1, for 'method and apparatus for heat recovery from cracked gas.'

Inventor(s) include Jibb, Richard John; and Groppi, Roberto.

The application for the patent was published on Nov. 14, under issue no. 46/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A system for recovery of heat from a cracked gas product includes a heat exchanger with one or more coiled tube bundles including a mandrel, tubes wound in concentric layers around the mandrel, and tube sheets. The tubes and tube sheets define one or more tube circuits. A cracked gas product is provided to the heat exchanger and flows on a shell side of the exchanger around an outside of the tubes without a substantial change in direction of the cracked gas product. A feed stream and one or more process streams flow inside the tubes, and more specifically, through separate tube circuits. The feed stream and process streams are heated by indirect heat transfer against the cracked gas product, which enables simultaneous heating of separate fluid streams without a convection section. Related methods for heat recovery are also disclosed."

The patent application was internationally filed on Apr. 26, 2024, under International application No.PCT/US2024/026468.
