TRACERCO Diagnostics™ - Tower Scan

The performance of the distillation train in a chemical facility is key to the performance and hence profitability of the manufacturing asset. When a problem occurs our customers require a rapid, accurate, cost effective and above all safe method of determining the most likely cause and location within the tower of the problem. That is why Tracerco have developed the TRACERCO Diagnostics™ - Tower Scan technology, also known as gamma scanning, which is totally non-intrusive, quick to undertake and provides real time data to our customers. This technique is also used during the pre-shutdown periods of facilities, so that the shut-down period can be minimised, reducing lost production and costs:

Features of the TRACERCO Diagnostics™ - Tower Scan

• A rapid, accurate and reliable method of characterising the extent of mechanical damage within a distillation column;.
• A technique which enables the process conditions within a distillation column to be fully understood (flooding, foaming, weeping, carryover, etc.).
• A totally non intrusive technique undertaken by a team of highly trained engineers.
• Distillation column does not need to be prepared for study (insulation does not need to be removed, flooring does not need to be removed or altered.
• Able to be carried out on a wide range of distillation columns (0.5 to 10 meter diameter, various down-comers, various tray / packing designs).
• Rapid response available from Tracerco.

Benefits of the TRACERCO Diagnostics™ - Tower Scan

• Production can continue whilst the study is being undertaken - Reducing Downtime.
• Enables the optimisation of the maintenance of the distillation column - Reducing Time & Costs.
• Eliminates the need to shut-down the column to identify damaged packing / trays - Reducing Downtime & Costs
• Real time results available, so study can be customised and optimised on site - Reducing Costs & Time.
• Efficiency of the process can be optimised by utilising the data gather from the study
