Abstract

Systems for heating multi-tubular reactors are provided. Systems can include one or more reaction panels including multiple vertically-oriented reaction tubes, each including a catalyst bed, which can be located within a furnace. A burner system can provide a flue gas to the furnace, and the flue gas can enter one or more distribution chambers such flue gas in the distribution chambers does not contact the portion of the reaction tubes containing the catalyst bed. The flue gas can travel from the distribution chambers and through one or more convection chambers to flow co-currently with a feedstream within the reaction tubes.
