Engineering & Design
Use monitoring programs to improve ammonia plant uptime
Trending processing information – pressure, temperature – provides 'clues' on the reliability of critical equipment and catalysts
Business Tools for Technology Transfer
Apply these guidelines for best communication between technology and business fields
Improve liquid/gas coalescer performance
Using surface treatment for coalescer media, separator drainage capabilities can be significantly increased
Overhaul process reactors
Several examples utilize a general model to optimize and speedup process upgrades
General reactor model improves HPI applications
Applying new tools, refiners can optimize revamp, and modernize existing process units
Calculate water in combustion air
A simple procedure estimates combustion-air moisture from wet- and dry-bulb temperatures
High-capacity distillation
New directions with trays increase tower capacities
Improve DMT production
New processing techniques reduce raw material consumption for this polyester precursor
Successfully transfer HPI proprietary technology
Licensing processes does not end at basic design, rather it is a continuous communication that passes knowledge and experience between the licensor and client
