Abstract
The invention relates to a furnace for performing an endothermic process, the furnace including a plurality of process tubes containing a catalyst for converting a gaseous feed, wherein the process tubes are arranged in rows within the furnace, each row of process tubes thereby defining a process tube row, a plurality of inner burners arranged in rows, each row of inner burners being arranged between and parallel to process tube rows, thereby defining an inner burner row, and a plurality of outer burners arranged in rows, each row of outer burners being arranged between and parallel to a process tube row and a furnace wall, thereby defining an outer burner row. A number of burners of an outer burner row is smaller than a number of burners of an inner burner row. The invention also relates to a process for operating a furnace for performing an endothermic process.
