A refinery in the UAE faced ongoing challenges with their Magnetic Level Gages and associated Level Switches. The high-temperature process within their columns caused boiling inside the gages, leading to unreliable readings and frequent false trips and alarms. Boiling fluids can cause the float to sink in a traditional level indicator. This situation is common when there are substantial temperature differences between the fluid in a vessel and the fluid in an indicator chambe

A lube oil manufacturer in Brazil faced long blending times, taking approximately 8 hours to mix lube oil with proprietary additives using mechanical mixers. This prolonged process limited production capacity and operational efficiency. Using AccuBlend Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) A Jacoby-Tarbox® Program™ , it was demonstrated that Tank Liquid Agitators (TLAs) offered a more efficient mixing solution. The analysis revealed that in-tank eductors could achieve the same b
