Overview of decarbonization pathways for the oil and gas and petrochemical industries—Part 1
This two-part article will cover the seven pathways to decarbonizing the oil and gas and petrochemical industries.
Circular Economy: Innovative recycling, driving circularity while decarbonizing the petrochemical industry
Plastic pollution’s environmental challenges, as well as new government legislation, are having a significant impact on the plastics industry.
Reliability: Consider packaged twin-screw compressors
Compressors are widely used in the process industries to move fluids and gases within and outside the boundary of a process.
Plastics circularity: How to solve the challenge of retaining quality in recycled polymers
Businesses and governments around the world have united behind the vision of a circular economy for plastics.
Mechanical impact of rerating process equipment
Process equipment operating in a brownfield environment is often rerated pertaining to the changes in process parameters during debottlenecking.
Air-cooled heat exchanger operation under emergency cooling service
One of the challenges in the operation of air cooled heat exchangers (ACHEs) is to decide whether or not to operate under natural convection.
