In a Decarbonisation Technology article, Managing corrosion risk in SAF and renewable diesel processes, Emerson’s William Fazackerley describes how non-intrusive real-time corrosion monitoring provides early warning of corrosion issues to enable early mitigation actions.
Corrosion & Erosion
Here’s how Upgrading Instrumentation at Upstream Wellsites Improves Production While Reducing Methane Emissions
Many of the methane emissions at an upstream wellsite can be attributed to a lack of leak detection devices and unexpected reactive maintenance. In the past, factors such as operational disruption and implementation costs discouraged efforts to address these issues,...
Navigating Corrosion Hotspots in Amine Units: A Guide for Refineries and Gas Processing Plants
Amine units are critical components in refineries and gas processing plants, removing acidic contaminants like H2S and CO2 from process streams. However, these units are particularly vulnerable to corrosion, which can lead to costly shutdowns and safety risks. Let's...
How to Monitor the Effects of Sand Erosion at Oil and Gas Production Sites
When it’s time to repaint the ironwork of a bridge or building, what’s the best way to strip away old paint and rust? Sandblasting is usually the first choice because it is very effective at eroding surface crud and getting down to clean metal, but if it continues too...
Lithium-Ion Battery Component Manufacturing Measurement Solutions
Emerson’s Michael Machuca presents Measurement Solutions for Lithium-Ion Battery Component Manufacturing at the Achema 2024, the World Forum and 34th Leading Show for the Process Industries.
Instrumentation Considerations for Carbon Capture Processes
At the Carbon Capture & Storage Summit, Emerson's Lara Petrishchev presented Instrumentation Technologies to Address Carbon Capture Challenges. I'll highlight a few points that she shared with the attendees. Lara opened by showing a typical carbon dioxide (CO2)...
Managing Equipment Damage Caused by Corrosive Feedstocks Encountered with Biofuel Production (Part 2)
When we talk about renewable fuels to the general public, many might imagine cars running on gasoline made from wildflowers and meadow grass. However, those who work in the industry recognize that the fats and oils used to make renewable diesel can be just about...
Managing Equipment Damage Caused by Corrosive Feedstocks Encountered with Biofuel Production
When we talk about renewable fuels to the general public, many might imagine cars running on gasoline made from wildflowers and meadow grass. Those who work in the industry recognize that the fats and oils used to make renewable diesel can just about be anything but...
Greater Reliability with Non-Intrusive Wireless Corrosion Monitoring
At the 2024 4C Health, Safety & Environmental Conference, Emerson’s Justin Vasquez shared a presentation, Enhancing Safety, Profitability, and Sustainability through Wireless Corrosion Monitoring: A Focus on Reliability with Non-Intrusive Monitoring Devices.
Solving Corrosion Problems by Treating Metal Deterioration as a Process Variable
Imagine that you’re called into your plant to solve a recurring problem. The operator states: “We’ve had to replace this valve three times this year due to failures from over pressure.” Your first question is pretty obvious: “How high is the pressure?” The operator...
Monitoring Corrosion and Erosion in Carbon Capture Applications
In a 4C Health, Safety & Environmental Conference presentation, Corrosion & Erosion Relates to 56% of Losses with Piping. Overcoming These Challenges While Increasing Carbon Capture., Emerson’s Justin Vasquez described the challenges and solutions to address these conditions.
5 Key Factors to Consider Before Investing in a Corrosion Monitoring Solution
Introduction If you are reading this, then it’s likely that you are considering investing in an ultrasonic thickness corrosion monitoring solution to improve visibility into the health of your facility. Now that you’ve decided there is a compelling reason to install...
