Tips & Tricks for Mitigating Threats to Hydroprocessing Exchanger Health Pt. 2
Hydroprocessing
Operational case studies of DHT, GOHT, and NHT feed /effluent exchanger threats are presented with monitoring, reliability, and chemical addition strategies. Mitigating threats of feed side and effluent side fouling and corrosion over time also requires sustaining institutional knowledge through constant change of stream composition, temperatures, AND people. This presentation includes tips and tricks of templated calculations, use of Decision Support Tools, industry knowledge, vendor relationships and support, and cross-site sharing of findings.

Renewables Process Safety: An Operators Perspective Part 1
Sustainability
The presentation aims to delve into the critical aspects of process safety in renewable diesel and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) manufacturing, addressing the challenges and opportunities inherent to the transition towards sustainable energy solutions. As renewable technologies, particularly renewable diesel and SAF, continue to evolve, ensuring robust process safety mechanisms is paramount to mitigate risks and enhance operational reliability.
We'll explore various incidents and lessons learned shared by leading operating companies in the renewable sector. These real-world examples will illustrate the complexities and potential hazards associated with renewable diesel and SAF operations, emphasizing the importance of stringent safety protocols, proactive risk management strategies and rapid integration of lessons learned.

Abnormal Situational Prevention: Improve Situational Awareness
Abnormal Situation Management
This panel session will explore how operating companies leverage industry good practices and advanced computing technology to swiftly process predictive analytics. It will also cover the use of high-performance HMI graphics and effective alarm management to enhance situational awareness.
Participants will:
· Learn how analytics (predictive, process conditions nearing an operating limit, reliability focused machine learning, corrosion prediction tied to IOWs, etc.) can assist with identifying pre-abnormal conditions and take appropriate actions to avoid an abnormal situation (prevention).
· Learn how high-performance HMI graphics can improve situational awareness to detect abnormal situations before alarms occur and perform required action(s) faster to avoid consequences.
· Understand the aspect of dealing with abnormal situations is alarm management. It is essential to maximize the time available for operators to respond while keeping the number of alarms triggered at a minimum. Preventing abnormal situations before the alarms activate keeps the console operators focused on the operation without having to manage an abnormal event.
