Best Practices for Maintaining Heat Exchangers Between Turnarounds

Between scheduled turnarounds, heat exchangers are expected to operate continuously under demanding conditions. Over extended run lengths, even well-designed systems can experience gradual performance loss, often without immediate alarms or obvious failures.  Maintaining heat exchangers between turnarounds is not about major repairs. It is about preserving thermal performance, protecting pressure-retaining components, and avoiding unplanned downtime […]

Grid Stability in the Age of AI: Through Boiler and Turbine Integrity

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming one of the most significant drivers of global electricity demand. By 2030, data centre consumption is expected to more than double, from 415 TWh to 945 TWh1, driven by AI-optimised servers that use up to ten times the energy of traditional computing. In the United States, data centres may account […]
