What Are the Common Challenges with Thermal Relief Valves in Catalysis?
Some common challenges include:
Fouling: Accumulation of catalyst particles or process by-products can obstruct the valve. Corrosion: Exposure to harsh chemicals can degrade valve materials over time. Incorrect Sizing: An improperly sized valve may not provide adequate protection. Set Pressure Drift: Over time, the set pressure of the valve may drift, necessitating recalibration.
