Risk analysis to be implemented for refinery ESPs
On February 18, 2015, an explosion occurred in the ExxonMobil Torrance, California refinery’s Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP); a pollution control device in the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) unit that removes catalyst particles using charged plates that produce sparks during normal operation. The incident occurred when ExxonMobil was attempting to isolate equipment for maintenance while the unit was in an idle mode of operation. Preparations for the maintenance activity caused a pressure deviation that allowed hydrocarbons to backflow through the process and ignite in the ESP. The U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) identified several process safety design weaknesses in the Torrance refinery FCC unit at the time of the incident. As a result, the CSB made four recommendations to Torrance Refining Company LLC. This recommendation is specific to requiring a siting risk analysis be performed of all ESPs and the implementation of appropriate safeguards.

PTFE Membrane development by Idex reduces metering pump total cost of ownership
Through extensive research and development, IDEX has designed a new PTFE diaphragm featuring a unique chemical composition of PTFE that offers the best of both worlds—combining the benefits of PTFE with the temperature and high-pressure resistance of metallic diaphragms. The result is a smaller, lighter and less expensive pump suitable for the widest range of metering pump applications—from chemical manufacturing to refining to power generation to offshore oil and gas production, and for all forms of water and wastewater treatment.

Market for WESP Stainless Plate
I talked to Buzz Reynolds of Siemens. He said all the specs call for 3/16” or greater plate. At Trimble County, they are using 6 moly and 2205 at Prairie State and Dallman. He thinks Spurlock is 2205 and Elm Rd. is 317 Lm. Buzz said they use a special design which was confidential but you could describe it as something more than 3/16. So maybe it is some shape other than just flat plate. : 1) How many WESPs have been installed? At least 100 world wide in power and thousands in acid mist and other chemical/refinery applications. Belco division of DuPont is big with the EDV in refineries. They may have close to 100 installations. The EDV is a hybrid between a WESP and a scrubber 2) Forecasted mkt for WESPs? It is about 5% of the potential of FGD but lots of stainless as a percentage of the total market. The problem may be the sizes do not fit your offerings 3) Approx Lbs of plate required per WESP…Power Plant WESPS are as big as the scrubbers. So there is lots of plate See the draft of the article in Air Pollution Control for more details on this market.
