History of the HPI: The 1970s: Crises, clean air, plastic bottles and the DCS
The 1970s were marked by several historical events that affected not only the hydrocarbon processing industry (HPI) but nations around the world.
Bringing treatments to a boil
The function of a boiler is simple. It boils water to produce steam, which, in turn, provides energy.
Considerations for not providing a dedicated spare pressure-relief device
Pressure-relief devices play a critical role in the hydrocarbon processing industry.
Sensitivity analysis of a plug flow reactor
A sensitivity analysis study evaluates uncertainties in a model’s output based on the changes in the input parameters of the model.
Save energy and reduce CO2 emissions with closed-loop optimization of utilities networks
Oil and gas, petrochemical and chemical companies face the difficult challenge of maximizing profitability while achieving aggressive decarbonization objectives set for 2030 and beyond.
