Zusammenfassung:	Methods that reduce fouling of equipment in a quench water recycling loop of a steam cracker quench system by separating tar from water in the quench water recycling loop. The methods may include settling a bottom stream comprising pyrolysis gasoline, from a quench tower, in at least two quench water settlers in parallel, each of the quench water settlers producing a settler hydrocarbon stream and a settler bottom quench water stream. The methods may also include mixing a bottom stream comprising pyrolysis gasoline, from a quench tower, with quench tower effluent water to form a combined stream. The method may further include settling the combined stream in at least two quench water settlers in parallel to produce settler hydrocarbon streams, settler bottom quench water streams, and settler process water streams.
