Heat Transfer
Take the mystery out of running your LNG plant
Many natural gas liquefaction plants with production capacities ranging from 0.5 MMtpy to 8 MMtpy use mixed refrigerants to cool and liquefy the feed.
Differential thermal expansion and welding problems in dissimilar joint of carbon steel to austenitic stainless-steel piping in high-temperature applications
Joining dissimilar piping materials has found widespread application in various process plant piping, most notably in jacketed piping with carbon-steel jackets and austenitic stainless-steel core piping with stainless-steel end closures that require welding to carbon-steel jacket piping.
Energy comparison for heat pump and bottom flashing schemes for C3 hydrocarbon system
Propane-propylene splitters are present in significant numbers across petrochemical complex units, such as ethylene crackers and propane dehydrogenation units.
Cleaning procedure for a plate heat exchanger derived from data analysis based on recurrent neural networks
This article presents a new procedure to clean the plate heat exchanger of a diesel hydrotreatment plant.
Beyond sequestration: Changing CO2 from a problem to a solution—Part 1: CO2 as a refrigerant
As the world continues along its energy transition trajectory, demand for blue hydrogen and reduced carbon emissions will make high-purity carbon dioxide streams available in many process plants.
Riding the dragon: Sulfur plant thermal reactor temperature measurement
Of all the fundamental measured process variables, temperature is perhaps the most reliable.
A simplified dynamic approach for storage tank thermal inbreathing rates
Storage tanks that experience sudden heavy rain on what was a hot sunny day can be damaged due to inadequate venting devices.
Technologies helping the petrochemicals/organic chemicals sectors adhere to new flaring regulations
Industrial plants, chemical companies, refineries, the coal industry and landfills practice gas flaring as a safety measure to relieve pressure or dispose of excess gases.
How digital is essential for carbon capture at scale
Energy and chemical companies around the globe obtain value from digitalization across all stages of the asset lifecycle, from design to operations.
