Dear All,
In my project currently in FEED stage, contractor has designed C3 splitter overhead condenser with maximum operating temperature of 80 deg C @ o barg. Normal operating temperature and pressure are 54 deg C (inlet) and 38 deg C (outlet)on process side.
The reason being is column...
Dear All,
I would like understand the differences between all three codes/standards for hazardous classification area exercise in petrochemical plant. It would be great if anyone can furnish when do we use this each std/codes.
Thank you
Dear All,
Anyone of you have came across with the following sulphuric acid specifications in the market:
H2SO4 = 98 wt%
Chlorides as Cl = <40 mg/kg
Fe = <50 mg/kg
NO2 = <50 mg/kg
SO2 = <15 mg/kg
As = <0.1 mg/kg
Hg = <0.1 mg/kg
Urgent reply is highly appreciated. Thanks!
I am trying to calculate the limiting oxygen concentrations (LOC) for 2 vapour mixtures consist of propylene oxide, propylene, methanol, ethanol, propanol, ethylamine, trimethylamine, oxygen and etc based on flammability diagram.
However, I also understand that the value is able to be computed...
I believe 2 rows (option A) is a better design, however the project owner is yet to response on all the facts that we have given, perhaps they are thinking a way to 'fight' back to option B, hahaha...
Regardless, thanks you guys for all the valuable inputs...Cheers!
Thanks Ghartman on the info provided. However, the suggestion by you on the 3 units in parallel are separated whilst our design is to group all 3 units parallel together (back to back).
Anyhow, it seems like option B with all cells grouped together would probably need further enhancement.
Thanks ash9144, for your comment.
Also, just wondering the option B will have the STARVING TOWER FOR AIR scenario since there is a row of cell in the middle of the entire unit apart from what you described earlier.
In terms of maintenance and piping/nozzle layout consideration, what is your...
Dear All,
I am currently involved in a mega petrochemical complex project. The overall cooling water consumption is more than 130,000 m3/h (10& margin) and the initial design is to split to users into 2 main clusters, so end up with 2 block/cooling tower in two different locations within the...
