Radiotracers are widespread in use for investigation of material transport processes in industry and environment. Often they are used for the measurement of the residence time distribution in continuously operating chemical engineering facilities and reactors. Mostly intrinsic or physical tracers are used for these purposes.
In case of phase transformation processes are in the focus of...

A radiotracer experiment was conducted in an aeration tank of a waste water treatment plant in a chemical plant in Malaysia. Idoine-131 (half-life: 8 days, energy: 360 keV (80%), 640 keV (9%)) as sodium iodide was selected to be used as a radiotracer. About 12.5 GBq (200 mCi) activity of radiotracer was used. The radiotracer was diluted in a volume of about 30 liter and injected into the...

Non-negligible uncertainty and imprecision in defect detection and defect sizing exist when only using one single Non Destructive Testing (NDT) technique. To increase the reliability and reduce the uncertainty of defect detection and defect sizing, the complementarity and redundancy of radiographic and ultrasonic testing data is exploited. The reliable concept to improve the detection and...

Crude cost is one of the most important parameters in the operation of an oil company. The choice of crude is very vital in that it determines the profit margins of oil companies, hence the selection of an optimum crude for processing requires a lot of consideration. Neutron backscatter technique is a non-destructive method used for industrial investigation, including determination of...

Gamma Column scanning technique was utilized to identify of mechanical problems such as missing, collapsed or buckled trays in trayed column of Crude Oil Distillation Unit C at the No. (1) Refinery (Thanlyin), Yangon, Myanmar. It has 52 trays, diameter is 2 meter and height is 43.55 meter. Scanning type of work is Blank Scan and this unit has been shutdown since 2010 due to some processing...
