# of Manways per Quench Zone
• H2Advance design: 2 manways per quench zone
• Compared with 4 (+quench gas distributor)
• H2Advance: Use wedge pin for manway (not
nuts and bolts)
• Impact: shorten unit TAR time

H2Advance Example: Bayernoil ULSD
• Installed in 2002 (18ft ID 3-bed RX) for ULSD
• Resulted in a higher unit throughput (revamped
at 53,000 BPD)
• And longer than anticipated catalyst cycle
