The petrochemical process industry involves units such as furnaces, reactors, reformers, crackers, fired heaters, and incinerators where refractories face extreme thermal gradients, chemical corrosion, erosion from gas flow, and cyclic thermal stress. Process conditions are highly variable, with exposure to alkalis, sulphur compounds, hydrocarbons, and soot, often in combination with mechanical vibrations and differential expansion.
