Gases are frequently converted to a liquid in order to facilitate convenient storage. Many gases liquefy by cooling at normal atmospheric pressure, while others require pressurization as well. Industrial gases commonly stored in this fashion include liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen, liquefied chlorine, liquefied natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas. Liquefied gas plays a role in the ethylene industry as well. Feedstock to an ethylene plant’s fractionation towers contains a liquid cryogenic hydrocarbon mixture as a result of going through compression and refrigeration trains after the quench tower.

Quench settler interface level at petrochemical plants must be properly controlled in order to increase productivity. Learn how better instrumentation can improve interface measurement in ethylene plants.

On a recent visit to evaluate several level transmitters on chemical storage applications at a new combined cycle power plant, We had the opportunity to work with the EPC firm, plant personnel and the chemical supplier.
