Motor Control Centres: Where Electrical Distribution Meets Plant Operation

Industrial plants contain large numbers of motors driving pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, mixers and other equipment. Supplying power to these motors is only part of the electrical requirement. Each motor also needs appropriate control, protection and isolation. Motor Control Centres, commonly known as MCCs, bring many of these functions together in a centralised electrical assembly. […]

Emergency Power in Industrial Plants: What Happens When the Main Supply Fails

Industrial plants depend on a continuous supply of electricity to keep process equipment, control systems, safety systems and utilities operating. When the main power supply fails, the impact can be immediate. Pumps stop, motors trip, instruments may lose power and process conditions can begin to change quickly. For this reason, many plants use emergency power […]

Bunds and Secondary Containment: Designing for Spills Before They Happen

Storage tanks and chemical-handling areas are designed to keep liquids inside equipment and piping. But industrial facilities also have to consider what happens if that primary containment fails. Bund walls and other secondary-containment systems provide a controlled area in which leaked or spilled liquid can be retained rather than spreading across the plant. Although the […]

Industrial Drainage Systems: Why Civil Design Matters During Plant Operations

Industrial drainage systems rarely attract attention when they are working properly. But when drainage is inadequate, blocked or poorly designed, the impact can quickly spread across plant operations. Water can accumulate around equipment, access routes can become unsafe, contaminated runoff can move into the wrong drainage system, and heavy rainfall can disrupt operating areas. For […]

Fired Heaters: How Industrial Plants Manage High-Temperature Process Heating

Many industrial processes require temperatures that cannot be achieved economically through steam or conventional heat exchangers alone. In refineries, petrochemical plants and other process industries, fired heaters provide direct high-temperature heating to process fluids. These heaters transfer energy generated by fuel combustion to tubes carrying the process stream. Their performance has a direct influence on […]

Agitators and Mixers: Matching Mixing Equipment to the Process

Mixing is a common operation across chemical, pharmaceutical, food, water-treatment and many other industrial plants. Although an agitator may appear to be a relatively simple piece of rotating equipment, its performance depends heavily on how well the mixer is matched to the process duty. The objective may be to blend two liquids, keep solids suspended, […]
