Inline corrosion is driven by aggressive chemistry, temperature, pressure, flow effects, and phase changes that can rapidly shift operating conditions. The financial impact goes well beyond replacement cost, with unplanned downtime, environmental consequences, and safety risks often representing the largest exposure.
Market uncertainty is back and refiners are responding the only way they can - by looking at alternative crudes. Tariffs, sanctions, shifting trade lanes, and sustained oil price volatility have returned macroeconomic pressure to refining margins in recent months....
The shift toward renewable fuels has introduced new operational realities for refiners. While biofuels offer clear sustainability benefits, their chemical composition and processing paths create corrosion mechanisms that differ in both severity and location from those seen in traditional petroleum refining.
This quick 1 ½-minute YouTube video, Get Simple, Weld-Free Corrosion & Erosion Monitoring in High Temperature Applications, shows how the Rosemount Wireless WT210 Corrosion and Erosion Transmitter with the Universal Mount provides a simple solution for continuous corrosion and erosion monitoring in high-temperature applications without the need to weld studs.
This 2:30 video, Emerson’s Non-Intrusive Measurement Instrumentation, highlights the benefits of non-intrusive devices in production and manufacturing processes.
The Gulf states and other locales are creating carbon capture & storage (CCS) capacity. Emerson’s instrumentation supports accuracy of capture volumes for auditing.
Systems to combat air pollution from combustion processes generally inject a chemical into the gas stream that is designed to neutralize a specific pollutant. For example, limestone slurry is sprayed into sulfur-dioxide-laden flue gas to neutralize the potential acid...
In einem Vortrag auf der 4C Health, Safety & Environmental Conference mit dem Titel “Korrosion und Erosion betreffen 56 % der Verluste bei Rohrleitungen. Diese Herausforderungen überwinden und gleichzeitig die Kohlenstoffabscheidung steigern.” beschreibt Emersons Justin Vasquez die Herausforderungen und Lösungen zur Bewältigung dieser Bedingungen.
En una presentación en la Conferencia de Salud, Seguridad y Medio Ambiente 4C, titulada “La corrosión y la erosión están relacionadas con el 56% de las pérdidas en tuberías. Superando estos desafíos mientras se incrementa la captura de carbono.”, Justin Vasquez de Emerson describió los desafíos y las soluciones para abordar estas condiciones.
In an article published in both Hydrocarbon Processing and Gas Processing & LNG, Emerson’s Seth Harris examines the technologies necessary to create a revenue stream from carbon capture.
In a Decarbonisation Technology article, Managing corrosion risk in SAF and renewable diesel processes, Emerson’s William Fazackerley describes how non-intrusive real-time corrosion monitoring provides early warning of corrosion issues to enable early mitigation actions.
As refineries navigate an increasingly complex operating environment, the challenge of managing corrosion risks while maintaining operational flexibility has become paramount. Emerson's Rosemount™ Wireless Corrosion and Erosion Transmitters, with over a decade of...
