For decades the FCC industry has been fighting to resolve the issue of corrosion within high temperature processing vessels. Most of these efforts have focused on chemical solutions to this problem. But Wouter Garot, CEO of SILICON and a metallurgist by profession, believes that corrosion issues can be resolved by applying a barrier system that has already been proven to enhance the internal condition of process vessels. If he's right, it could substantially reduce maintenance costs across the industry worldwide.

In every crisis there is opportunity.  Learn how Engineering Procurement and Construction companies (EPCs) serving the process industries can emerge from this latest challenging period stronger and more competitive by accelerating digital transformation, helping their customers make informed decisions regarding their reduced capital spending plans and by identifying new sources of revenue from plant operations and maintenance.

XRF delivers rapid and accurate results for testing sulphur and chlorine in biofuels, backed by international standard test methods. Download our whitepaper to learn about a viable solution to measure both elements concurrently with one instrument.

Cooling systems in refineries and chemical plants depend on water quality analysis of recirculated water to deliver effective performance. Selecting the right instrumentation makes the difference.

Examine how cooling system and scrubber installations operate, what happens to the water they use, and how instrumentation can help monitor and control remediation efforts.

In the challenging environments present in fired equipment operations, new, rugged UV flame sensors can withstand temperatures up to 325°C and respond within milliseconds. Rugged UV flame sensors are the apt solution for proactive protection and prevention in the harsh environments of fired process equipment and power generation operations.

Petra MAX delivers precise results for sulfur and metals in petcoke and coal without complex sample preparation, specialized skills, additional chemicals and reagents, and lengthy measurement time required for other methods and techniques. Learn how you can screen for multiple elements and get results in 5 minutes or less.

Hydroprocessing unit operators know every particle added to the feed process increases pressure drop and takes away from cycle length. The result is unplanned shutdown time, reduced cycle time and a financial loss that can often creep into millions of dollars a year. To mitigate this risk, operators seek ways to make the most of existing plant equipment by integrating new, more efficient technologies. The ideal solution is one that can maximize existing space and provide the best benefit. To better help customers achieve this goal, Crystaphase and Honeywell UOP are integrating market-leading technologies that can enable processing heavier feeds, longer operations, extended time between turnarounds, and help inter-cycle skimming.
