Rotating Equipment
Adapting and prospering in the energy transition
The energy transition is gathering momentum as pressure from society leads policy makers and investors to demand faster and deeper cuts to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from all industrial sectors.
Engineering Case Histories: Case 107: Weld failures in vibrating equipment
Vibrating equipment can be machines, such as vibrating screens, conveyor pans or a combination of both, that are designed to transport, sort or dry materials.
Reliability: Know the pitfalls of excessively high oil viscosity
Since its inception in June 1990, more than half of the 347 “HP Reliability” columns published in Hydrocarbon Processing have incorporated consulting experiences and communications that span the globe.
Industry Perspectives: What topics do you want to hear about?
Throughout Hydrocarbon Processing’s 97 yr of publishing technical material for the refining and petrochemical industries, the journal has focused on numerous topics to optimize downstream processing facility operations.
Separate fine solid particles from dusty air with a uniflow cyclone
Fine particles are usually collected by dry collectors, wet collectors, electrostatic precipitators and filters, at the commercial level.
Pump sealing for low-temperature hydrocarbons and liquefied atmospheric gases
Pumping of low-temperature and cryogenic fluids requires specific and unique engineering technologies for the shaft sealing system.
Case study for a high-performing refinery loss control program
Most refineries have some sort of mass balance and loss control program in place for accounting, planning and scheduling, as well as for financial and operational evaluation purposes.
Cloud-based condition monitoring solutions optimize reliability of rotating equipment
Hydrocarbon processing (HP) companies are seeking opportunities to improve productivity, optimize equipment availability and increase process uptime.
Equipment reliability: Critical to protecting margins in a volatile environment
For any hydrocarbon processor, margin is king.
