LE0330 : Online Analyzers Design

This practical, highly-interactive course includes practical sessions and exercises where participants will visit the laboratory and they will be introduced to various lab instruments and process analyzers. Practical sessions will be performed using one instrument in order to apply the theory learnt in the class.
With the aim of reducing costs and optimizing a uniform stream of production at refineries from crude oil stockpiling to shipment of final products, the online analysis systems were developed in order to accurately grasp in real time the qualitative properties of crude oil, products base materials and products. With online analysis system, production takes place continuously and there is minimum need for laboratory tests, which have taken up much time in the past, or batch productions.
This course covers multiple measurement techniques ranging from physical, thermal, electrical, and optical techniques through those utilized in electrochemistry, chromatography and spectroscopy. It also touches on maintenance, system packaging, and system errors consideration.
The course includes online analyzers, and covers the principles of analyzer concept, available systems and methods of analysis, latest updates, safety aspects related to them and method of selection based on required application.
