SUMMARY:Register Now for Heat Exchanger World Americas Conference & Expo 2021 12/1 & 12/2
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\nThis Event Reminder is Sponsored by:\n\nConference Program\n\n\nHeat Exchanger World Americas Conference & Expo 2021\nDecember 1st and 2nd, 2021 at the LyondellBasell CPET\nDAY ONE: Wednesday, December 1st, 2021\n\n\n\n10:00 AM\nKeynote 1\nChairman’s Welcome: Heat Exchanger Future Market – Energy Transition 2050 – Naomi Jabbari, S & B Engineers & Constructors\n\n\n10:30 AM\nKeynote 2\nNew Project Development Overview – Chad Burke, Economic Alliance Houston Port Region\n\n\n\n \n11:00 AM             Expo & Coffee Break\n\n\n\n11:30 AM – 1:00 PM\n\nWorkshop\nBolted Joints –\nBest Practices\n\n\nWorkshop\nCleaning & Antifouling\n\n\n\n\nSession Chair: Mike Prevost, Ohmstede Industrial Services\n \nBolted joints play a critical role for performance and safety of pressurized equipment such as heat exchangers. Despite this, many end users and maintenance technicians fail to understand how they work and how many parameters are involved in a reliable bolted assembly – amount of torque applied to nuts, nut friction, type of gasket used, the size of the studs/nuts/flanges, the type of equipment used for tightening, the calibration of the torquing equipment, flange face alignment, and torquing sequence, to name a few. In this workshop, we will explore best practices for bolted joints assemblies, the importance of training for assuring consistent torquing practices, and discuss and some root causes of joint failure.\n \nPresentations:\n\nUpdate on ASME PCC-1 (2022) – Becoming a Standard, and What This Means – Scott Hamilton, Hex Technologies\n\n \n\nHow to Avoid Exchanger Leaks / Bolted Flange Joint Considerations – Mike Prevost, Ohmstede Industrial Services, Inc. & Scott Hamilton, Hex Technologies\n\n \n\nDemonstration on Best Practices for Bolted Joint Installation – Scott Hamilton, Hex Technologies & Joel Baulch, TEADIT\n\n\nSession Chair: Roberto Tomataki, Clean as New/Becht\n \nFouling affects basically all types of heats exchangers in all industries. It not only hinders plant capacity and increases energy consumption, but it can also lead to mechanical failure. The costs associated with fouling are in the millions of dollars range for many businesses, mainly due to maintenance and energy losses. In this workshop, experts will discuss advances in fouling mitigation, cleaning technologies, performance monitoring, and understanding of fouling mechanisms.\n \n \nPresentations:\n\nReduce OPEX & CAPEX in Refining Process Unit Fired Heaters & Heat Exchangers Using Tubacoat Technology – Sanjay Lodha, Tubacex\n\n \n\nUsing Continuous Helical Flow to Reduce Fouling – Volker Metzger, Watlow\n\n \n\n?? – Russell Philion, Orange Cleantech\n\n\n\n\n\n \n 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM          Lunch\n \n\n\n\n2:00 PM-4:00PM\n\nWorkshop\nMaintenance & Turnarounds –\nBest Practices – Panel Discussion\n\n\nWorkshop\nTesting & Inspections\n\n\n\n\nSession Chair: Jan Contreras, Logan Industries\n \nTurnarounds are complex maintenance events. During some critical weeks, a plant is shutdown, and maybe thousands of workers and materials have to be coordinated into a myriad of tasks. In this workshop, we will learn how heat exchangers play a significant role in these events and how tasks involving them are commonly addressed.\n \n \nPanelists to discuss case studies, possible solutions, method chosen and results.\n \n(including: Case study: What to do, when you need to replace 631- 1” diam tubes welded to two cracked tubesheets that need to be replaced too, in only 9 days at site?)\n \nPanelists:\n\nMike Prevost, Ohmstede Industrial Services, Inc.\nScott Hamilton, Hex Technologies\n\n \n\nJoel Baulch, TEADIT\n\n \n\nJames Schaefer, KBR\n\n \n\nDinesh Bakshi, Brask\n\n \n\nGilbert Alonzo, Consultant\n\n \n\nPaul Miller, Technip\n\n \n \nSession Chair: James Cesarini, Pro-Surve\n \nTesting & Inspection are part of design codes and are often supplemented by end-user requirements. They pose technological and administrative hardships on the industry and are responsible for a significant part of the cost of a new industrial equipment. Once installed, heat exchangers also require frequent assessments to monitor remaining life. This workshop will welcome discussions related to advances in NDE techniques, new standards, and common challenges in implementing Testing & Inspection procedures.\n \n \nPresentations:\n \n\nTube to Tube Sheet Volumetric Weld Inspection – Ryan King, Acuren\n\n \n\nA Discussion of Technologies Used to Prevent Corrosion in Heat Exchangers – Heather Mroz, NobelCladDAY TWO: Thursday, December 2nd, 2021\n\n\n\n10:00 AM\nKeynote 3\nHeat Exchangers, From Paper to Field – Naomi Jabbari, S & B Engineers & Constructors\n\n\n10:30 AM\nKeynote 4\nSpecial Considerations for the Design of Heat Exchangers – Marco Fazzini, Koch Heat Transfer\n\n\n\n11:00 AM            Expo & Coffee Break\n\n\n\n11:15AM-1:15 PM\n\nWorkshop\nThermal Design\n\n\nWorkshop\nMaterial Selection & Fabrication\n\n\n\n\nSession Chair: Marco Fazzini, Koch Heat Transfer\n \nThermal design requires an experienced professional, adequate software tools, and thorough understanding of process conditions. For a shell and tube heat exchanger, for example, the number of possible combinations of materials, geometries, and heat transfer possibilities can baffle a newcomer to the industry. In this workshop, typical challenges in design – and in conveying design into specification – will be discussed.\n \n \nPresentations:\n \n\nAvoiding Vibration Problems in Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers – James Schaefer, KBR\nClosed Loop Hybrid Cooling, Using Wet Surface Air Coolers – James Suchy, Alfa Laval\n\n \n\nLiquid Entrainment in Kettle Reboiler with Asymmetrically Located Nozzles – Naomi Jabbari. P.E, S&B Engineers & Constructors\n\n\nSession Chair: Chris Grice, Ward Field Service Group\n \nDespite the rise of new technologies, such as 3D metal printing, the majority of heat exchangers being manufactured still relies on traditional fabrication techniques of metal forming, welding and machining.  It is critical that during the design phase, materials selection takes into account how the equipment is going to be fabricated, as some materials add more layers of complexity to fabrication more challenges than others (titanium, for example). This workshop will discuss some of typical challenges encountered by designers and fabricators, while also displaying showcases of new technologies that can help in overcoming them.\nPresentations:\n \n\nPerformance of Semi-Metallic Gaskets with Nubbin – Robert Taylor & David Fairbanks, 3S – Superior Sealing Services LLC & Sinclair Wyoming Refining Company\n\n \n\nTube to Tubesheet Joints in Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers – Bal K. Sareen, Brask, Inc.\n\n \n\nTube Sheet Gasket Surface Machining – Chris Grice, Ward\n\n \n\nOvercoming Duplex Stainless-Steel Heat Exchanger Challenges in Sour Service – Craig Thomas, NEOTISS, Inc\n\n \n\nMaterial and Design Upgrades to Graphite Heat Exchangers – Mitch Meyers, CG Thermal\n\n \n\nAdditive Manufacturing for Heat Exchangers – Kevin Yap, 3D Metalforge\n\n\n\n\n\n \n1:15 PM – 2:15 PM           Lunch\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFollow MidstreamCalendar.com for upcoming industry events.
