This book provides information and serves as a technical reference for the maintenance, operation, reliability, trouble shooting and control of major equipment used in any aspect of the process plant industry. This information is vital for reducing downtime and unscheduled shutdowns, improving operational excellence, and prolonging the service life of equipment. The coverage provides the reader with technical support and expertise in order for them to gain operational excellence, learn maintenance strategies, troubleshoot problems, monitor issues, and properly select process plant equipment.
The book is illustrated throughout with numerous black & white photos and diagrams and also contains case studies demonstrating how actual process plants have implemented the tools and techniques discussed in the book. An extensive list of references enables readers to explore each individual topic in greater depth..." -Stainless Steel World and Valve World, November 2012
Discover how to optimize process plant equipment, from selection to operation to troubleshooting
From energy to pharmaceuticals to food, the world depends on processing plants to manufacture the products that enable people to survive and flourish. With this book as their guide, readers have the information and practical guidelines needed to select, operate, maintain, control, and troubleshoot process plant equipment so that it is efficient, cost-effective, and reliable throughout its lifetime. Following the authors' careful explanations and instructions, readers will find that they are better able to reduce downtime and unscheduled shutdowns, streamline operations, and maximize the service life of processing equipment.
Process Plant Equipment: Operation, Control, and Reliability is divided into three sections:
Section One: Process Equipment Operations covers such key equipment as valves, pumps, cooling towers, conveyors, and storage tanks
Section Two: Process Plant Reliability sets forth a variety of tested and proven tools and methods to assess and ensure the reliability and mechanical integrity of process equipment, including failure analysis, Fitness-for-Service assessment, engineering economics for chemical processes, and process component function and performance criteria
Section Three: Process Measurement, Control, and Modeling examines flow meters, process control, and process modeling and simulation
Throughout the book, numerous photos and diagrams illustrate the operation and control of key process equipment. There are also case studies demonstrating how actual process plants have implemented the tools and techniques discussed in the book. At the end of each chapter, an extensive list of references enables readers to explore each individual topic in greater depth.
In summary, this text offers students, process engineers, and plant managers the expertise and technical support needed to streamline and optimize the operation of process plant equipment, from its initial selection to operations to troubleshooting.
