CommentsComments

There is a current inability to integration the sample system using multi-drop, plug and play digital-bus technology due to a lack of IS, digital-bus components in the modular, low-flow footprint

There have been no documented, IS-certified GEN2 systems installed to date

End users and OEM alike can still benefit from IMSS integration of analyzer to sample system or PLC to sample system thru conventional IS certified analog instruments

Automation, closed-loop control, remote alarm and monitoring, and some diagnostic functions can be performed today which will still bring performance and cost of ownership benefits to the end user.

ITEM # CATEGORY DESCRIPTION 1 New Component

Technology Component designs for IMSS implementation have been advancing. More reliable and better performing components have resulted in less maintenance and better quality analysis runs.

2 System Maintenance 75-95% time reduction for component change outs and seal replacement.

3 Reduced Size Has allowed for more component redundancy in less space, such as redundant filters for automatic change over after fouling.

4 Intelligent control PLC and electronic component implementation in sample systems has resulted in less unplanned maintenance as well as frequency of hands on involvement at each system; which results in less technician time needed and a probability reduction of damage to the analyzer and even process itself.

5 Reduced volume, surface area

This has equated to shorter lag times and more analysis runs in a given time.

6 Reduced Analyzer Downtime

Downtime due to sample systems is estimated at ~10% of total downtime. This has been reduced to no documented downtime, due to sample system failures, over past 3 years. This equates to more effective use of emission credits on CEM’s applications (due to Missing Data Incidents) and less technician time needed.

7 Enhanced surface properties

The use of surface treatments in certain MSS applications has greatly improved sample analysis stability, especially with SO2 and H2S analysis.

CEM COO CommentsCEM COO Comments

Sample system downtime on CEM applications results in Missing Data Incidents

Have to either trade emission credits or pay fines if tonnage of emissions are over budget

There is a high probability that CEM analyzers will go down because of a sample system/ component issues or leak

Hard COO DataHard COO Data

A traditional tube and fitting blending system was replaced with a modular type system

Traditional System required 16 hours to rebuild 8 valves every 6 months

8 valves per system Parts to Rebuild = $150 / valve (highly conservative) Technician Rate was $50/hour New modular type of valves has been in service for over two

years with no rebuilds needed 2 YEAR SAVINGS = (16 * 4 * $50) + ($150 * 4 * 8) = $8000 COST SAVINGS PER VALVE/ YEAR = ($8000 ÷ 8 ÷ 2) = $500 TIME SAVINGS PER VALVE/YEAR = 32 HOURS

“Greenfield Extrapolation”

Take these numbers and assume a 10 year valve cycle life (1M cycles, 5min analysis cycle time) and a refinery scale implementation (1000 valves)

TOTAL SAVINGS = (1000 * $500 * 10) = $5M TOTAL TIME SAVINGS = (32 * 10) = 3200 MAN-

ConclusionConclusion Proper design and component selection is paramount in

obtaining desired performance from Modular Performance benefits have been proven at the refineries

engaged in this study for Gen 1 and 1.5 type Modular implementation

Hard performance and COO data is scarce because this new data is considered proprietary; primarily due to the unique process and performance advantages that Modular Sample Systems are bringing

It will not be feasible to utilize modular in 100% of all applications; hence a hybrid modular / fitting approach and hybrid analog / digital approach will need to be adopted

End-users do not need to wait for a true digital bus implementation to benefit from IMSS systems today.
