FLOW SOLUTIONS GUIDE

COST-EFFECTIVE ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

Inaccurate measurements, poor performance and non-compliance can be costly when it comes to environmental compliance responsibilities. It’s your job to run the plant as efficiently and smoothly as possible without compromising safety. There are many challenges you face every day including problematic process measurement points that push older devices beyond their capabilities.

Your measurement technology must keep pace, assisting in meeting these challenges. An example of this is when older flow measurement technologies fail to provide outputs effective in precise control or fail prematurely in harsh environments.

Stay compliant without wasting time and money

• Eliminate nuclear sources and associated paperwork from your plant

• Receive accurate and reliable lime slurry flow and solids measurement

• Optimize ammonia injection rates and reduce 'slip'

• Assure that you are getting what you are paying for in raw material purchases

• Reduce unscheduled downtime

• Accurately measure hard-to-handle molten sulfur flows to the sulfur burner

✓ Advanced flow measurement technology and software

✓ Tighter solids control

✓ Extend calibration intervals

✓ Predictive diagnostics and remote insight into performance

✓ Lifecycle services for ongoing support

✓ Alarm management

SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION

Bulk ammonia custody transfer

• Make sure that you get what you are paying for

• Validate mass transfers and product quality (Micro Motion Coriolis Meter)

Ammonia density at the storage tanks • Assure proper concentration prior to use

(Micro Motion Fork Density Meter)

Ammonia Injection • Assure proper mass flow of ammonia or urea for

injection to optimize NOx conversion, minimize ‘slip’ and reduce chemical costs (Micro Motion Coriolis Meter)

Mass Balancing • In U2A systems, maximize hydrolyzer efficiency

(Micro Motion Coriolis Meter)

FLUE GAS CONDITIONING Bulk molten sulfur custody transfer • Make sure that you get what you are paying for

• Validate mass transfers and product quality (Micro Motion Coriolis Meter)

Molten sulfur flow measurement • Accurately measure hard-to-handle molten sulfur flows to the

sulfur burner to assure correct SO2 to SO3 catalytic conversion (Micro Motion Coriolis Meter)

FLUE GAS DESULPHURIZATION

Eliminate nuclear source on plant site • Replace nuclear density meters with fork density meters which will reduce maintenance,

paperwork and safety concerns (Micro Motion Fork Density Meter)

Lime slurry density at the storage tanks • Assure proper concentration prior to use (Micro Motion Fork Density Meter)

Lime slurry injection • Assure accurate injection rates to optimize scrubber performance (Rosemount Magnetic Meter)

Lime slurry density at the injection site • Verify correct slurry solids during injection to prevent plugging or ineffective scrubbing
