ViscoLab PVT+

High-pressure viscosity analysis. For oil, gas, polymers, and supercritical fluids, ViscoLab PVT+ delivers the highest levels of accuracy, speed, and reliability. In high-pressure processes, correctly analysing precious samples is as challenging as it is critical. With millions of dollars on the line, “close enough” is never good enough, and “soon enough” is never fast enough. Since viscosity is an important factor in the quality and marketability of the fluid, measurements ...

PAC solutions for ethanol

Ethanol is the most mature among major renewable fuels and has the highest global consumption, with the US and Brazil being the top two consumers. Ethanol, when blended into gasoline, oxygenates the fuel and offers a proven solution for reducing transportation-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It is a clean, cost-effective way to improve the octane of gasoline or motor fuel, helping the engines to run more efficiently. As in the case of some other biofuels like FAME, high ...

AFX™ catalysts for increased propylene production from FCC units

New technology to meet propylene demand. Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) units are playing an increasingly important role in meeting the growing worldwide demand for propylene. To help refiners meet this demand better, Albemarle has introduced the innovative AFX catalyst technology and catalyst family, which are designed specifically for operation at high propylene yield. Before AFX, propylene production from an FCC unit with a traditional catalyst was limited. ZSM-5 based additives ...

A single integrated vacuum system

Failure to design the vacuum unit as an integrated system will invariably result in unsatisfactory yield and poor product quality (high vanadium, nickel, microcarbon, or asphaltenes), and ultimately, an unscheduled shutdown. To avoid these revamp problems the charge pump, fired heater, transfer line, column internals and ejector system must all be evaluated and designed as a unified whole so that critical variables – heater outlet temperature, coil steam injection rate, ...

Interface and Multiphase Level Measurement

Radiometric measurements from Berthold. The radiometric measurement systems from Berthold are used to localize the interface layer between two phases. These systems are even used in more complex processes to measure the density profile and thereby picturing the heights of the different product layers inside the vessel. In this way the characteristic of the emulsion layer can be monitored as well. The measurements are primarily applied in chemical plants and in the oil & ...
