The Top 4 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to Improve Your Next Outage

The Top 4 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to Improve Your Next Outage

Capturing the performance of the overall outage, measuring the effectiveness of the strategy, benchmarking for maintenance and reliability comparisons, and updating the customers’ documentation are crucial to the success of future events and plant operations between them. If overruns occurred, the source of those overruns should have already been approved prior to execution but should be part of the review process as well. This will be fed into the lessons learned documentation.

How Automation Can Help End Users and Device Manufacturers Scale Up the Clean Hydrogen Economy

How Automation Can Help End Users and Device Manufacturers Scale Up the Clean Hydrogen Economy

Hydrogen fuel technology has reached a stage where it is past the prototype phase, and the industry is now looking to scale up. The fuel cell market, for instance, is forecast to grow at a robust 45.3% compound annual growth rate between 2022 and 2029, with projections of a market value reaching $17.88 billion. However, the potential growth of the industry is not guaranteed. There is still much work to be done, including increasing fueling stations and reducing the cost of producing green hydrogen. To mitigate risks and help hydrogen technology mature, strong partnerships between innovators and automation experts are needed. Automation experts can help hydrogen OEMs and end-users scale up capacity to meet market demands, keep projects on time and in budget, monitor hydrogen application performance, and ensure safety in volatile environments. With the help of automation experts, the hydrogen market can scale up and make a significant contribution towards achieving ambitious climate goals.

Three Simple Steps To Improve Gas Train Performance

Three Simple Steps To Improve Gas Train Performance

Designing a fuel train system for a boiler, furnace, or oven requires careful consideration of various parameters. Flow is one of the key parameters that should be maximized to ensure optimal performance of the burner and prevent potential shutdowns due to low fuel pressure. However, poor flow in the fuel train can be a common issue, which can be addressed by selecting the right components.

The Advantages of Digitalization in Clean-in-Place Systems

Clean-in-place (CIP) systems are a vital part of daily production in the food and beverage industry. They allow manufacturers to clean internal piping, tanks, and machines from one batch to the next to meet government regulations and ensure product quality and safety. However, CIP operations also represent a significant portion of a facility’s total utility costs and often involve manual process adjustments and manual data recording.

Optimise Plant Performance in Chemical Facilities Using Continuous Integrity Monitoring

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.
