Continuous corrosion monitoring offers the granularity, accuracy, and reproducibility that traditional periodic monitoring methods such as manual inspection do not. Using these traditional methods mean it is impossible to link corrosion incidents to asset integrity, which leads to chemical operators acting reactively rather than proactively.
Advanced functionality in the latest level measurement devices enables them to meet the demands of even the most challenging chemical industry applications. Increasing level measurement accuracy and reliability helps to enhance plant and worker safety while maximizing...
In a recorded webinar, Achieving Repeatable Golden Batch Outcomes, Chemical Engineering magazine’s Scott Jenkins hosts Emerson’s Michael Machuca and Marty McDonough to discuss some of the automation solutions that can improve the Right First Time metric.
Advanced automation technology from Emerson is helping to solve a range of solids level measurement challenges at a large lime processing plant in the US. The need to reduce costs and increase operational efficiency is driving greater adoption of automation...
At the Oct 26-28 Emerson Exchange Asia conference, we will be discussing many more features around the Level portfolio in the presentation including topics of Functional Safety for Level Measurement including Proof Testing, Interface measurement and Reactor Level measurement specific.
More and more frequently, chemical plants are adapting new recommendations and incorporating newer processes to meet the highest safety guidelines prescribed across industries. Faced with many harsh conditions at a typical site, companies are turning to automation and upgrading their activities to simplify manual operations with more sophisticated equipment, driving greater production efficiency and safety management practices.
If you have vessels and silos containing solids materials such as cement, grains, wood chips and plastic pellets, it is vital to prevent overfills. Should an overfill result in a spill, the consequences can be extremely serious, with falling materials having the...
En este episodio el especialista en tecnologías de medición Carlos Cordeiro, nos guiará sobre las mejores prácticas en materia de medición de lotes en la industria química, así como la optimización de tareas a través de la implementación de tecnologías de...
A series of chemical industry webinars beginning later this month on ways to drive process efficiencies and lower operational costs with Michael Machuca, Marty McDonough and Andrew Cureton.
Any process manufacturing company that has not yet launched a cybersecurity program is probably frozen in a frequent difficult position: Where do we start? If your company is trying to break free and make some progress—and maybe you’re the one tasked with doing it—we...
In the news every day we see the changes in economic activity in the upstream oil & gas exploration and production business caused by the significant drop in oil prices over the past several months. But what have been the implications for downstream producers in...
Author: Sonal Gilani In an earlier post, Improving Energy Efficiency in Thermal Oxidizers, I highlighted how switching control loops from manual to automatic mode improved overall efficiency. Emerson's James Beall shared a second story on this thermal oxidizer...
