Petrochemical
industries, like other process industries, generally benefit from
electrical/mechanical thermography inspections. Infrared inspection of
various refractory lined vessels is an extremely cost effective process. |
 |
The
condition of refractory lining is extremely critical to vessel integrity
and the safety of various high temperature applications such as boilers,
furnaces, dryers, process vessels, rotating kilns, off gas ducting and
cyclones. Some of the anomalies that can be detected are refractory
wear, refractory loss, blockages and sintering. |
 |
In
a process furnace inspection, infrared is used to inspect heater tubes
for carbon build-up. This effect of this buildup is known as coking,
which eventually leads to higher furnace firing rates and increases tube
temperature, resulting in reduced tube life. |
