Solvent leak isolation
Hey guys,
I am consulting for a plant that has a massive solvent network. And it isn’t flow tracked. They measure level in their tanks and have a PCV to maintain pressure in their respective header.
I was wondering if you guys had any experience you could share about a scenario where a solvent leak may occur. In order to detect and then shutdown this leak. To be clear they want to be able to stop a leak as soon as possible- AND make it automated. Frankly they will probably need to hedge their expectations. But let’s see!
Looking to hear about new and old tech and maybe some key instrumentation you think we may be missing.
I am also concerned about adding too much instrumentation because their network is so diverse and spread out- it would require so much instrumentation and PMs would be crazy. But sometimes that is the price to pay
