Recently, in most of the condensate tank production projects, two main activities of welding and painting are done in manual and automatic ways. The purpose of this study is "green supply chain management" of these activities in order to select the best production method. For this purpose, by literature reviews and using Delphi and DEMATEL techniques, the indicators and sub-indicators of green ...

Condensate of black liquor vapors is known to cause corrosion in pulp mill equipment like digesters, flash tanks, storage tanks, evaporator domes, and other equipment handling black liquor condensate. This type of corrosion typically occurs in parts of equipment where the black liquor vapors can condense on a metal surface. Generally organic acids and other wood extractives in the condensate ar...

during recent years oil products has decreased because of growing population and increasing demand to oil products and decreasing of crude oil extraction at compare to export. however, to achieve suitable levels of production, the use of improved technologies should be considered. another way to prevent the evaporation and leakage from oil storage tanks and their products are using of storage t...

Temperature distribution is a critical indicator of the health condition for Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) storage tanks. In this paper, we present a large-scale wireless temperature monitoring system to evaluate the safety of LPG storage tanks. The system includes wireless sensors networks, high temperature fiber-optic sensors, and monitoring software. Finally, a case study on real-world LPG s...

Natural gas processing is a major industry in Alberta, Canada, and a significant source of fugitive emissions of both methane and volatile organic hydrocarbon (VOCs). This project investigated fugitive emissions at natural gas processing plants in Alberta using two complementary optical measurement methods. At five gas plants, the fugitive emissions of methane and hydrocarbons ethane and larger...
