Better Manage Refinery Energy and Emissions
Optimize your refinery’s energy usage, meet regulations, and lower operating costs.
Optimize your refinery’s energy usage, meet regulations, and lower operating costs.
The need to optimize operations to reduce energy usage and waste, and meet ever-changing emissions and environmental regulations is critical. By partnering with Emerson, you’ll gain the ability to identify root causes for energy loss and access better energy consumption data. This insight will enable you to achieve improved results and keep your refinery operating at peak performance while meeting all regulations.
Case Study
To comply with the EU directive for energy and CO₂ emissions, Shell needed correct calculations. The refinery accessed accurate measurements of the fuel gas flow rate, pressure, and temperature with two Micro Motion specific gravity meters which offered dual redundancy for increased reliability.
Case Study
A major refinery had difficulties optimizing the levels of three wastewater transfer pits for overflow protection. Using an ultrasonic level transmitter and control unit, the refinery successfully decreased energy usage and reduced safety and environmental risks.
Case Study
By using a vibrating fork level switch, a North American refinery reduced the risk of sending liquids to the flare, effectively reducing safety threats and the risk of fugitive emissions, as well as reducing valuable liquid losses.
Case Study
A North American refinery reduced its risk of NOx emissions excursions, improved combustion efficiency, and increased steam production with Coriolis flowmeters.
