Process analytics measurement solutions for refineries and petrochemical processes

In refinery and petrochemical processes, the drive to decrease downtime, minimise corrosion, reduce waste and control the use of chemicals is ever present. Sour crude and tough process conditions are major causes of refinery corrosion. The resulting equipment failure, unplanned shutdowns and uncontrolled dosing of chemicals have a major impact on costs and loss of profit. The global cost of corrosion in refineries is estimated at $15 Billion a year!

Achieving PAT Goals with Process Analytics Equipment

Pharmaceutical manufacturers focus on quality and cost efficiency. Traditionally, quality has been evaluated via samples tested in the laboratory. The FDA has encouraged the industry to implement in-line tools as described in the PAT initiative to better understand and control the manufacturing process.

Athenea is the new chlorine monitoring system for potable water networks from Halma Water Management (HWM). It is an autonomous, battery powered chlorine analyser that provides continuous monitoring of concentration levels and transmits data automatically via cellular telemetry. This greatly reduces the need for time-consuming on-site ‘spot’ testing, and obviously allows for much more frequently updated results.
