Navigating Corrosion Hotspots in Amine Units: A Guide for Refineries and Gas Processing Plants
Jim Cahill
Amine units are critical components in refineries and gas processing plants, removing acidic contaminants like H2S and CO2 from process streams. However, these units are particularly vulnerable to corrosion, which can lead to costly shutdowns and safety risks. Let’s explore the key corrosion hotspots in amine units: Absorber Towers: Prone to wet acid gas corrosion, especially in the vapor space at the bottom.…

Critical Hydrotreatment Processes for Manufacturing Renewable Diesel Need Sophisticated and Reliable Flow Metering Capabilities
Jim Cahill
While some diesel engines can operate on vegetable oil, the process of turning plant- and animal-based oils and fats into a practical sustainable fuel suitable for more widespread use calls for more extensive treatment. There are major chemical differences between petroleum oil extracted from the ground, and oil extracted from soybeans or olives. For a facility trying to make renewable diesel from bio-based feedstocks…

Non-Intrusive Flare Header Technologies
Jim Cahill
At the 2024 4C Health, Safety & Environmental Conference , 4C Marketplace’s Steve Probst and Emerson’s Marcio Donnangelo presented Flare Headers Non-Intrusive Technologies. Steve opened the session by pointing out the financial benefits of continuous monitoring for many ESG-related projects. Having to implement mitigation strategies for compliance does not provide ESG credit, but doing it before it’s required does enable…

Managing Equipment Damage Caused by Corrosive Feedstocks Encountered with Biofuel Production (Part 2)
Jim Cahill
When we talk about renewable fuels to the general public, many might imagine cars running on gasoline made from wildflowers and meadow grass. However, those who work in the industry recognize that the fats and oils used to make renewable diesel can be just about anything but that, and in fact often come from more prosaic sources, such as meatpacking waste. From a process viewpoint, waste sources can cause serious problems…

Lowering the Carbon Footprint by Optimizing Liquids Pipelines
Jim Cahill
Pipelines move the energy required to make our modern world possible. Moving liquids from crude oil to sustainable aviation fuels is energy-intensive. Optimizing the flow of these liquids is critical for less carbon-intensive pipeline operations. Emerson’s Jennifer Worthen joined me in this podcast to discuss ways to drive more optimized performance. Give the podcast a listen and visit the SCADA Solutions & Software…
