How to successfully coordinate a global megaproject
When it comes to major petrochemical plant construction projects, logistical complexity can be one of the biggest hurdles builders face.
Innovations
The automation experts at ATC Diversified Electronics, maker of devices for automation, motor protection, process monitoring and power quality, have introduced the new MPA2 motor protection analyzer.
Control reciprocating compressor pressure pulsations to ensure long-term operational reliability
Reciprocating compressors receive and deliver gas in discrete slugs (or pulses) as the pistons move back and forth.
Select the appropriate construction materials for valves and accessories
In refineries and petrochemical plants, valves and related components often come into contact with process media.
Process safety: Protecting LNG processes
At roughly 50 yr old, the liquified natural gas (LNG) industry is a relatively new part of the global energy market.
Take the anxiety out of plant turnarounds
The months leading into an impending turnaround (TAR) have never been an easy time for operations and maintenance personnel.
Process control in the process industry
In this age of automation, process control in the process industries is essential.
Calculate realistic control valve pressure drop by rules-of-thumb method
Pressure drop is defined as the difference in pressure between two points of a fluid-carrying network.
C3, splitter revamp case study emphasizes importance of balancing in four-pass trays to achieve separation efficiency and capacity
The C<sub>3</sub> splitter in an olefins plant is one of the most important and critical pieces of equipment: it separates polymer-grade propylene from propane.
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.
