The Process Gas Compressor (PGC) is one of the most critical pieces of operating equipment in the ethylene manufacturing process.
When there is a problem associated with the PGC the required actions can have significant financial impacts. (reducing rates, applying expensive solvents/additives, unplanned outage, ect.)
It is very important to quickly identify machine asset performance issues and apply the proper solutions to the identified issues.
In this case, a multidisciplinary team from Huntsman and SUEZ jointly identified a mechanical issue within the 2nd/3rd stage case by reviewing/evaluating the thermodynamic, aerodynamic, rotor dynamic, auxiliary equipment and mechanical performance vs. design.
