The Danger of Hydrogen Leaks and How to Minimize the Risk
Alina Green | ApplicationsLeaks are a pernicious issue in natural gas pipelines. As hydrogen can escape even more easily than methane through the tiniest holes, cracks, and weld seams, the transport and eventual storage of this gas is one of the major barriers to wider adoption of this gas as a …
Hydrogen: A Beacon of Hope for the Chemical Industry
Alina Green | ApplicationsHydrogen leakage threatens the decarbonization of the chemical industry, but that’s no reason to abandon efforts to make the switch from fossil fuels to hydrogen. The chemical industry needs hydrogen in order to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels, an …
How Multipoint Thermocouple Arrays in Amine Units Increase Production and Prevent Failures
Alina Green | Applications, TemperatureAmine units are critical to the operations of refineries and chemical plants. If a unit fails due to corrosion, condensation and foaming, or another issue, the entire productivity and safety of the facility is imperiled. Temperature measurement solutions allow …
The Vital Role of Temperature in Amine Columns for Treating Natural Gas
Alina Green | Applications, TemperatureThe function of an amine unit is to remove unwanted sulfur compounds and carbon dioxide from raw natural gas before it is sold and used. Proper temperature control plays a crucial role in how well the amine solution absorbs acid gases, as well as prevent issues that …
