Abstract :
The current fuel market situation is causing more cement plants to look toward fuel oil as either a primary or as a secondary fuel. This paper discusses the various ``direct´´ and ``indirect´´ heating methods available for heating industrial fluids as related to heating fuel oil. The basic fuel oil heating system is illustrated, and the various methods and equipment for heating at the storage, pumping, pipeline, and booster stages are discussed.
