| description | A segmented electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) imager for palm oil
process monitoring system is constructed and presented in this work.The goal of this
study is to use the process monitoring system as an instrument to upkeep the local
and foreign palm oil mill. This is to ensure that the monitoring of crude palm oil
(CPO) in conveying pipeline during extraction of palm oil mill process flow process
is efficiently controlled. The system has the capability to visualize the percentage of
liquid that exist within the vessel therefore the data can be utilized to design and
create better process equipment in mill process. It will also be used to control some
processes in order to boost the quality of crude palm oil and the POME (Palm Oil
Mill Effluent) treatment process. Most ECT in earlier research were created rapidly
and utilized well in multiphase flow measurement in numerous applications such as
in oil and gas industries, gas/solids cyclone, milk flows and fluidized beds.
Experimentally, this work investigates the capability of using a twin-plane
segmented ECT sensor with 16 portable electrodes using two differential excitation
potentials transmitted signal in order to recognize the concentration and velocity
profile as well as the phase concentration of crude palm oil related multiphase
systems (liquid and gas). The attained concentration profile which is received from
the capacitance measurements is capable to provide image of the liquid and gas
mixture in the pipeline therefore, the separation process (between oil and liquid
waste) becomes much easier and the crude palm oil‟s quality can be dependably
monitored. The visualization results deliver information regarding the flow regime,
superficial velocity and concentration distribution in two-phase flow-rate
measurement system incorporating a liquid flow measuring device. The information
obtained is able to help in the process equipment designing, verification of existing
computational modeling and simulation techniques. It may also assist in process
control and monitoring during the palm oil extraction process |
