|
A New Acoustic Sensing Technology for Optimizing Polyolefin Production. GranuMet XP polymer combines the powerful performance of GranuMet XP with a high number of acoustic emission channels. GranuMet XP-polymer™ reduces production cost by detecting process upsets early. GranuMet XP polymer can be used in all particulate processing applications. |

The size, hardness and flow parameters of particulates affect the acoustic signal in predictable ways. Acoustic emission measurement provides real time information for process control. High temperature intrinsically safe sensors (Tamb = 190º C).
- Intrinsically safe acoustic emission sensors, preamplifiers and cables
- Signal conditioning unit (including IS barriers)
- Multi-channel GranuMet XP acoustic emission monitoring system
- GranuMet XP modeling and statistical process control software
|
| |
- Early detection of agglomeration in fluid bed reactors (PE and PP production)
- Detection of condensates in recycle loops (onset of condensation mode)
- Detection of entrained powders in gas streams (cyclone efficiency, grid blockages)
- Monitor fines production / control cyclone discharge more precisely
- Performance of pneumatic transport lines (detects blockages)
