Minimize energy consumption in water treatment with forward osmosis technology—Part 2
Heavy industries like refining, petrochemicals and mining face concerns about the availability of freshwater, as these are affected by local water scarcities and stringent water discharge regulations.
Chemistry modeling system—A key to increased steam system reliability
Oil refineries and petrochemical plants rely on steam systems to maintain utility and process unit operations.
Advantages of using TDL analyzers for safety monitoring in combustion within HPI applications
From refining to chemical production processes, heaters play an essential role in hydrocarbon processing applications.
Estimation of relief load and realistic relieving temperature for heavy-end fractionating columns
Relief calculation is one of the most discussed aspects of chemical engineering design.
Projects as programs: A vision for long-term project success
Process industries across the globe grapple with producing dozens or even hundreds of different products.
Refinery revamp opportunities with welded plate heat exchangers
The plate-and-shell (P&S) heat exchanger has three significant advantages over the shell-and-tube (S&T) type traditionally used in refinery processes.
Fatigue damage assessment of coke drums based on temperature monitoring
Coke drums are expensive equipment with a long manufacturing cycle, so a realistic and accurate life prediction can save significant time and money.
Asset life assessment: A strategic reliability tool for the process industries
Asset life assessment (ALA) has become a strategic tool for process plants (e.g., petrochemical, chemical, and oil and gas) to determine the extent of degradation and the ability of assets to bear static and dynamic loads while sustaining the desired production processes.
Best options for a reboiler revamp
It is always a challenge to reconfigure and resize existing reboilers, especially vertical thermosiphon ones, for the revised design and operating conditions of a brownfield project, since hydraulics external to the reboiler must match the reboiler hydraulics under the revamped conditions to ensure trouble-free operation.
Benefits of close-coupled flush rings
The chemical industry uses flush rings for diaphragm seals.
