Profiting from Ultrasound Steam System Inspection
Friday, September 19, 2008
Just to share some info / news that was delivered to my mailbox by PlantServices.com. It's actually a webminar (web seminar) that you can enjoy from the comfort of your home / office to learn about how to profit from ultrasound steam system inspection.
From the brief information provided, it mentioned how we can use ultrasound to inspect steam traps and valves which are very critical and important in a processing plant. I remembered how crucial the steam traps were when i was working in a production plant before. Whenever some steam traps fail to function and when the boiler unintentionally sent us wet steam, our vacuum pressure will drop and hence disrupt our product quality. We were forced to regularly monitor all steam traps in our 7 storey plant and maintain a checklist. Once in a while, i personally checked some of the steam traps using my bare hands.
I guess that's enough for my rambling. What I wanted to highlight here is actually the webminar organized by Plantservices.com. If you want to learn about it register yourself for the program. I don't think I can make it there due to other commitments. Read the rest of the information....

Hi
my question is based on below chemical equation.
Methanol + Toluene --> P-xylene + Water
Methanol + Methanol --> Ethene + 2Water
Since the conversion of the reaction is only 62%, there will be some unreacted methanol and toluene in the exit stream from the reactor. The problem is that, I can't come up with any idea on how to separate the four component (toluene, xylene, water, methanol). Xylene is the required product. Toluene and methanol need to be recycled.
I did discussed on my own group on how to separate those components but we are now stuck at the azeotropic characteristic of the mixture. I really hope for some practical and reasonable suggestion on how to deal with this problem.
Thanks.
