CEM MiddleEast - Abstract

Abstract Information :

We want to present several best practice applications in regards to leakage control (also LEL monitoring) in a harsh environments, also inside the actual cooling system. Furthermore there are additional, diverse THC Monitoring applications, measuring in steam & condensate conditions with a FID (Flame Ionisation Detector) and the additional equipment necessary to do so. In regards to the following best practice applications, we give you a brief introduction, how to detect a possible break through of the heat exchanger system just before the actual cooling tower (LEL). This can be supported by some real life data from running applications in Singapore Chemical park (for example Shell). Possible additional conditioning issues of the sample and the evaluation of the total measurement and detection process can be of major interest for possible future applications to learn, especially in regards to LEL measurements and safety concepts to also addept for possible predictive maintenance and therefore operation times. To optimize the total process and the safety conditions, fast measurements, especially in harsh environments, and also within hazardous areas (Zone 1 & Zone 2) are possible, but only with additional sampling equipment to handle steam and condensate conditioning, especially in acceptable measurement times for safety issues. We therefore would like to characterize possible adaptions and applications to fulfill these kind of measurement tasks in the field (and present additional field data from diverse customer sites all over the world).
