Zusammenfassung:An electrically powered furnace may include a plurality of heating tubes configured to receive a feed and heat the feed. Each of the plurality of heating tubes may define a longitudinal axis extending between a first end of the heating tube and a second end of the heating tube and a longitudinal passage for the feed to pass through during heating of the feed. The electrically powered furnace may also include a plurality of electrical connections electrically connecting the plurality of heating tubes, and an electrical power source electrically connected to the plurality of electrical connections and configured to supply a voltage to the plurality of electrical connections. The voltage may be greater than or equal to 20 volts. The electrical connections may electrically connect the heating tubes in series, and the furnace may be configured such that processing of the feed occurs in parallel.
