KBC launches Visual MESA Greenhouse Gas Emissions Management software
KBC, a Yokogawa Company, announces the launch of a revolutionary emissions management solution, Visual MESA Greenhouse Gas Emissions Management for industrial process plants.
Critical considerations for retrofit designing a platformer reactor’s partial bypass piping in a NHT plant
The naphtha hydrotreater/continuous catalyst regeneration (NHT/CCR) platformer produces reformate to be utilized as a blending stock in the gasoline pool (FIG. 1).
Added benefits of control-valve environmental packing
Packing selection used to be a straightforward task that played a small part in a valve specification process that was much more involved.
Global Project Data
Gulf Energy Information’s Global Energy Infrastructure database is tracking nearly 1,000 active projects around the world.
Carbon capture in syngas-based projects
Recent legislation, such as the Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) and the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (which was passed in the U.S.), provide financial incentives for projects generating power, transportation fuels or other forms of energy to reduce their overall carbon emissions.
Next-generation automation technology paves the way for sustainable H2 manufacturing
In the last few years, sustainability initiatives have started a dramatic shift from hydrocarbon to hydrogen (H<sub>2</sub>) production.
Digital Feature: Reducing the carbon impact of oil and gas projects toward net-zero with operations science
This work provides details on how optimized project management can help companies minimize greenhouse gas emissions in capital projects and their supply networks. As explained, this approach is a significant opportunity that can be capitalized to further reduce not only emissions but also the cost and duration of project delivery.
How Bluetooth® technology extends the capabilities and connectivity of wired instrumentation
One day at a refinery, operators call an instrument tech to the control room and point to the screen.
