Process Control
Minimize facility flaring
Flares are safety devices that prevent the release of unburned gases to atmosphere
Improve reformer catalyst operations
Deactivation of hydrogen generation unit catalyst is linked to contamination of boiler feedwater from a leaking heat exchanger
Advances in tank quality measurements can help cut operational costs
New techniques make analysis available in real time
Enhanced methods optimize ownership costs for catalysts
Novel model-based innovation techniques enable simultaneous optimization of catalyst formulations and operating reactors
Control optimization saves money in distillation
A control system simulation with an air-cooled condenser demonstrates a method to reduce operating costs
Consider furnace replacement for existing olefin units
Leading-edge developments enable installing new units instead of revamping existing furnaces
Tune up your supply-chain models
Optimizers prescribe the preferred operation, taking into account supply-chain constraints; analysis of its economic message is required to counter restrictiveness of the model
Implementing coker advanced process control
This project resulted in about a half-year payout
HP Control: What about reactor advanced process control?
The premise of advanced process control (APC) is that there is money to be made by pushing a unit against its limits while keeping the product qualities at target. This concept is easy to understand b..
