Process Control
Fast ion chromatography analysis for determining biofuel sugars
All industrial processes require reliable, accurate and timely methods for analyzing process chemistry.
Online Feature: CCUS: Dispelling myths about risk
The presence of a strong regulatory structure, risk valuation tools that suggest lower risk values than previously envisioned and access to available insurance can help dispel the myth that CCUS is too risky and help everyone—project developers, financiers, policy makers and the public—have greater confidence in CCUS as it develops into a more widespread industrial activity.
The heavy toll on sulfur blocks
The tightening of environmental norms and emissions specifications provides additional challenges to refining.
Cut emissions and fuel while increasing capacity in fired heaters
According to a recent digital refining article,1 fired heaters are responsible for an estimated 400 MMtpy–500 MMtpy of CO<sub>2</sub>, with at least 73% of average refinery CO<sub>2</sub> emissions coming from combustion.
Anellotech offers drum-quantity samples of recycled BTX made from mixed waste plastics via Plas-TCat process
Anellotech is pleased to announce that it is offering drum-quantity product samples of aromatics produced from recycled mixed waste plastics.
Online Feature: Digitalization will help carbon capture and sequestration industry to be more efficient, safe, and profitable
While zero-carbon alternative solutions evolve, CCUS provides a near-term pathway to rapidly reduce the impacts of existing, difficult-to-decarbonize, emissions-intensive infrastructure and processes.
Decarbonizing your fired heaters with hydrogen fuel
Hydrogen has long been considered a high-value product, but not typically as a fuel for fired equipment.
Obsolescence management in a manufacturing unit
Obsolescence is one of the most detrimental and worrisome issues in manufacturing units. This is predominantly because of rapid advancements in technology.
Implement advanced level control techniques to improve crude distillation unit stabilizer performance
The performance of refinery operations depends on the stable operation of the plant.
Reliability analysis of analyzers bridges the gap between assessing and addressing risk
For most refinery facility managers, the demands of running plants efficiently, meeting environmental regulations and maximizing returns on product specifications challenge even the most disciplined professionals.
