RVP in process: ensure safety, comply with specifications, optimize profits
Pipeline operators, offshore platforms, terminals, fuel depots or oil tankers detect the vapor pressure, before transporting crude oil or other petrochemical products such as Gasoline or LPG for subsequent processing. It is absolutely necessary to know the vapor pressure of the transported substance to prevent costly damage done to the transportation or storage system. Apart from the costs a failure might cause, environmental regulations limit maximum vapor pressure ...

Green design practices: focus on efficiency
Green design is more than recycling scrap materials or calculating carbon footprints. It minimizes negative environmental impact through skillful design and operating practices to produce efficient, better-functioning processes. Because green practices reduce resource requirements, in many cases, they can also improve the profitability of the entire process. One of the most effective ways to make a process greener is to focus on column efficiency. Distillation is an energy ...

ThruPipe™ flaring piping systems
ThruPipe™ Scan. What does it do? A ThruPipe™ scan of a pipe is a non invasive method to examine the contents of a pipe and identify any localised fouling and blockage in the line. The power of the ThruPipe™ technology is that the scanning is done online, so real time information is obtained about how the flow through the pipe is performing at that instant. The scan “sees through” the pipe wall so a determination of what is happening inside without the need to shut down ...
