Abstract:
A plant or refinery may include equipment such as condensers, regenerators, distillation columns, rotating equipment, compressors, pumps, turbines, or the like. Different operating methods may impact deterioration in equipment condition, thereby prolonging equipment life, extending production operating time, or providing other benefits. Mechanical or digital sensors may be used for monitoring equipment to determine whether problems are developing. For example, sensors may be used in conjunction with one or more system components to perform invariant mapping, monitor system operating characteristics, and/or predict pressure, volume, surges, reactor loop fouling, gas quality, or the like. An operating condition (e.g., of one or more pieces of equipment in the plant or refinery) may be adjusted to prolong equipment life or avoid equipment failure.

Claim (Index 1):
A system comprising:\n a reactor; a heater; a centrifugal compressor comprising a dry gas seal; one or more sensors associated with the centrifugal compressor; a data collection platform comprising:\n one or more processors of the data collection platform; \n a communication interface of the data collection platform; and \n computer-readable memory storing executable instructions that, when executed, cause the data collection platform to:\n receive, from the one or more sensors associated with the centrifugal compressor, sensor data associated with the centrifugal compressor and collected by the one or more sensors associated with the centrifugal compressor; and \n send the sensor data associated with the centrifugal compressor and collected by the one or more sensors associated with the centrifugal compressor; and \n \n a data analysis platform comprising:\n one or more processors of the data analysis platform; \n a communication interface of the data analysis platform; and \n computer-readable memory storing executable instructions that, when executed, cause the data analysis platform to:\n receive the sensor data associated with the centrifugal compressor and collected by the one or more sensors associated with the centrifugal compressor; \n analyze the sensor data associated with the centrifugal compressor to determine a composition of gas used in the centrifugal compressor; \n determine, based on the composition of the gas used in the centrifugal compressor, a potential component failure of the centrifugal compressor; and \n based on determining the potential component failure of the centrifugal compressor, send a command configured to cause an adjustment to an operating parameter of the centrifugal compressor.
