- Techniques for Polymeric Deposits Reduction and Removal
Polymer fouling is an undesired and important circumstance in process industry mainly because of the huge costs associated with reduction in process performance, deposit removal and, in the worst cases, equipment damage and replacement. For this reason, it is very profitable for chemical companies to understand and contrast causes and implications associated to this phenomenon.
Course Objectives
In this programme you will:
- Understand the importance to minimise polymer fouling
- Acquire the fundamental knowledge regarding polymer formation and fouling
- Learn how to identify and study different polymer deposits
- Investigate the effect of temperature on polymer formation and removal
- Understand the real effectiveness of practices for polymer reduction and cleaning
- Discuss and compare different methods of polymer reduction and removal
Who Should Attend?
This course is recommended for professionals involved in the design, operation, and maintenance of equipment that can be affected by undesired polymer formation and fouling, including processes treating hydrocarbons such as oil and gas facilities, petrochemical plants, heat exchangers, distillation columns, and chemical reactors.
