there are two producers attached on the steam header, one from the coal-fired boiler, the other from the waste heat boiler of sulfuric acid plant. there is no problem with the steam coming from the sulfuric plant, as it can maintain a pressure of 42ksc, the problem is with the coal-fired boiler...
the problem is the steam pressure coming from the coal-fired boiler is often lower than the steam header pressure. How can i ensure that the pressure at the header is maintained?
We have steam from coal-fired boiler and steam from waste heat boiler of sulfuric acid plant, all connected on a common header. The problem is, the pressure of steam coming from the coal-fired boiler is fluctuating and is almost always < 42ksc, while that coming from the sulfuric acid waste heat...
Thanks guys,
I am looking at a pipeline that carries sulfuric acid, as of now, i have not seen the sched no. specified in the P&ID, but i;ve seen the pipe spec not for the pipe itself but for the valves, is it safe to say that the sched no. (thickness) of the valves on the pipeline corresponds...
Good day,
I happen to work as a process engr on a fertilizer plant also, but am not that well-versed with the process as our SSP production stopped years ago, what i've heard from the people here, is that SSP has a curing time of not less than 7 days. I would like to hear from our fellows...
Hello guys, i work at a fertilizer plant, and as i go over the P&ID's looking for the schedule numbers of pipes existing in the plant, it seems that i can't find it in the drawings. I looked for the data sheets of the valves that are in the plant and found out that the valves has corresponding...
Thanks Latexman, the one thing i ignored was taking the pressure at the highest point in the piperack, i will look into that.
By the way, the pump is centrifugal.
BigInch, please elaborate on putting a booster at the tank
We have a project which is to construct and additional storage tank for sulfuric acid adjacent to the existing tanks. It has been proposed that the existing transfer pumps be used for the additional tank so as to avoid additional cost. It turned out that the said proposal is plausible because...
