Abstract:
On-line detection of mesophase particles employs a laser diode light source to illuminate a target area with a pulsed laser linearly or circularly polarized probe beam. Analysis of images determines extent of presence the birefringent mesophase particles, which are precursors to coking in catalytic hydrocracking processes. The inherently polarized low-coherence, unfocused but sufficiently collimated, pulsed laser beam yield sharp imaging with high depth of field of very small mesophase particles that are present in a moving, dark reactor liquid environment.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 15  wherein the laser diode light source comprises a plurality of laser bars wherein each laser bar comprises one or more laser diodes and wherein the laser bars each emit a laser beam that is multiplexed to form the pulsed laser probe beam.
