Unit Start up Test Run

[david6245]

Hello, I would like to get feedback on the best way to approach a new unit start up with regard to a test run for Operations sign off. Would I simply be looking for design target rates at product specification? Anything else that should be examined, such as under sized control valves? I would also check the temp and pressure profile is as designed. I would also be interested in performing a rate run to see where the unit bottleneck is.

Can anyone share any experiences and lessons learned from this type of activity?

Thanks.

What is in the contract for your company to provide so the contract gets signed off by the customer?

What is the customer/your boss/your company paying you to do?
