Improving Burner Control with Gas Chromatographs
Jim Cahill
There once was a time for industrial manufacturers when they received fairly homogeneous supplies of natural gas that did not vary much in energy content. Here in the U.S. with the rapid increase in shale gas production as part of the overall energy mix, there is more variance. In a Power magazine article, Gas Chromatographs Offer New Technology for Power Plant Burner Control , Emerson’s Bonnie Crossland describes…

Vortex Flow Meter Principles of Operation
Jim Cahill
In yesterday’s post , we looked at three different flow measurement technologies used in fiscal metering applications—differential pressure (DP), Coriolis, and Ultrasonic. Today let’s look at flow measurement with vortex flow meters. There is a new, very educational video on the Rosemount YouTube channel, Introduction to Vortex Flow Meter Technology . This 4:49 video explains the basic principles of operation behind…

Natural Gas Flowmeter Selection
Jim Cahill
Flow measurement is critical in fiscal measurement applications from custody transfer to allocations between parties. The choice of technologies is broad and dependent on the fluid being measured and properties of the application. In an Applied Automation article, Selecting flowmeters for natural gas , Emerson’s Dan Hackett describes the need for different flow measurement technologies across different parts of the…

Calibrating Toroidal Conductivity Sensors
Bonnie Brown
By Dave Joseph, Emerson Conductivity measurement is one of the most ubiquitous in industry so the issue of how to correctly calibrate a toroidal conductivity sensor comes up for a lot of plant personnel. Because the purpose of the measurement is to get information about the total concentration of ions in solution (i.e., the conductivity), the effect of sensor dimensions and windings must be accounted for. The correction…

Multiphase Flow Measurement for Oil and Gas Well Pads
Jim Cahill
In oil and gas production well pads and offshore platforms, separators perform the work of breaking out the oil, gas and water into separate component streams. Test separators have historically taken flows from individual wells, known as well tests, to determine the percentages of these components on a periodic basis. These components are then returned into the production flow streams. The processing facility with test…

Optimizing Ammonia Usage in NOx Emission Reduction Processes
Jim Cahill
Mono-nitrogen oxides (NO x ) including NO and NO 2 are byproducts of combustion where it occurs in the presence of nitrogen. Since the composition of the atmosphere is 78% nitrogen , this would include most places where this combustion occurs. These NOx gases : …react to form smog and acid rain as well as being central to the formation of tropospheric ozone . To control the level of NOx emissions to meet regulatory…

Measurement Repeatability in CIP and SIP Operations
Jim Cahill
One only has to do a Google image search on pharmaceutical equipment to see the clean, sanitary conditions required for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical processing. The measurement instrumentation must be able to handle the tough conditions when cleaning and sanitization operations are performed. In a Pharmaceutical Manufacturing article, Ensuring Batch-to-Batch Repeatability in Sanitary Processes , Emerson’s Kyle…

Reliable Level Measurement for Marine Vessel Tanks
Jim Cahill
Measure tank levels can be challenging based on many factors including liquid composition, tank geometry, fill/empty rates, etc. And, if measuring levels on marine vessel tanks, there is added complexity with this non-stationary environment. I saw a LinkedIn post from Emerson’s Bert Konings about the complexities of level measurements in marine environments. In it, he pointed to this 5:26 YouTube video, Reliability…
