One only has to do a Twitter search on the hashtag #Reliability to see how often the topic is discussed from a process manufacturing and production standpoint. The reliability of plant assets affects overall production levels, quality, safety, environmental compliance, and overall costs.

Alcino Beirão
Business Development Manager
Heat exchangers are common in many types of production processes and these units can foul over time. This fouling can directly affect production capacity, maintenance/cleaning costs, energy usage, and the plant’s overall carbon footprint.
Alcino will highlight ways that automated heat exchanger monitoring and trending can help you optimize exchanger cleaning and maintenance and see up to a 10% reduction in energy and capacity loss.
He will discuss the root cause and effect of common heat exchanger problems and its business impact. Technology advances such as IEC 62591 wireless devices can be incorporated for effective heat exchanger health monitoring. Alcino will share how to financially justify a heat exchanger monitoring program based its impact.
If your process includes heat exchangers, join in and bring your questions for Alcino and the Emerson team.
