Lummus Technology is a leading supplier of hydrogen plants for refinery, petrochemical and other industrial applications. In addition to EPC services, we offer proprietary reformer furnace technology that provides superior performance and efficient energy utilization. Over the past 50 years, we've designed and built more than 200 plants around the world that range in capacity from less than one million standard cubic feet per day to 237 million standard cubic feet per day.
Our services for hydrogen plant projects typically include conceptual design, detailed engineering, procurement, fabrication, construction, startup and operator training. We provide a lump sum, turnkey solution, handling everything from concept to startup with our own resources whenever possible. This true EPC approach is possible because we maintain a global network of engineering, welding, fabrication, procurement and construction resources that can quickly be mobilized to virtually any location.
Hydrogen plant technologies
We design and build hydrogen plants that utilize steam-methane reforming (SMR), steam/oxygen reforming (SMR/O2R) or auto-thermal reforming (ATR) technology with natural gas, LPG or naphtha feedstocks. We also provide plants that utilize partial oxidation (POX) technology with natural gas, naphtha or heavy hydrocarbon feedstocks.
SMR is the most widely used technology for hydrogen plants. SMR-type plants with a design capacity of more than seven million standard cubic feet per day incorporate our proprietary HYFORMING® box reformer furnace technology. Plants with a design capacity of up to seven million standard cubic feet per day feature our proprietary H2Drogen® cylindrical reformer furnace technology. Both technologies combine efficient energy utilization and superior performance with safety and ease of operation.
Petroleum refiners and petrochemical manufacturers need a reliable supply of high-quality hydrogen for their operations. We offer solutions that are suited for a variety of feedstocks, capacity requirements and other criteria. And our proven, innovative technologies deliver superior long-term value, low life-cycle costs and reliable performance. Contact: hydrogen@CBI.com
Aftermarket Services
Lummus Technology provides spare parts, replacement parts, repairs, modifications and upgrades post-project. Our customers have the benefit of using one source for record research, engineering, purchasing, manufacturing, expediting, quality assurance and shipping of spare parts or replacement equipment worldwide.
