Corrosion testing and pipeline protection in petrochemistry

Corrosion testing and pipeline protection in petrochemistry

Corrosion – a universal problem Corrosion is one of the main issues petrochemical industry has to tackle. Corrosion degrades the mechanical properties of metal surfaces, lowering their performances. Pipelines, for example, are affected by corrosion induced by environment around them, such as oil, hot temperatures, seawater and microbes. It has...

Coolant analysis, fast, reliable, robust

Coolant analysis, fast, reliable, robust

In heavy machinery, engine fluids, including coolants, are a key ingredient to smooth operation. Poor quality coolant can lead to breakdowns, frequent maintenance requirements with long down time for machinery. On the other hand, hundreds of litres of coolant can be required during a maintenance. By monitoring a number of...

Moisture analysis of ethanol-hydrocarbon blends by Vis-NIR spectroscopy

Moisture analysis of ethanol-hydrocarbon blends by Vis-NIR spectroscopy

Water damages both fuel tanks and engine parts. Rust and corrosion in the tank create hard particulates that are passed along by the fuel, causing engine wear. Component life is also shortened by water etching, erosion, cavitation, and spalling. It can also cause indirect damage through microbial growth and fuel...
