Zusammenfassung: | Systems and methods to enhance vaporization of a hydrocarbon feed may include an evaporator positioned to receive a hydrocarbon feed and partially evaporate the hydrocarbon feed to provide a gaseous hydrocarbon portion and a liquid hydrocarbon portion. A first mixing unit may be positioned to receive the gaseous hydrocarbon portion and dilution steam and provide a hydrocarbon-steam mixture. A heater may be positioned to receive the hydrocarbon-steam mixture to provide a heated hydrocarbon-steam mixture. A second mixing unit may be positioned to receive the liquid hydrocarbon portion and the heated hydrocarbon-steam mixture and to evaporate at least a portion of the liquid hydrocarbon portion via energy associated with the heated hydrocarbon-steam mixture to provide one or more of an evaporated hydrocarbon portion or a heated liquid hydrocarbon portion. |
