Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods for monitoring the status of a cutting tool during delayed decoker unit operation, and systems for remotely monitoring the level of coke or foam in a drum during the coking process. One or more sensors or accelerometers is coupled to a location in a delayed coking unit operation to read vibrations emanating from the component that the respective accelerometers are located on. Vibrational data is transmitted to a computer system that manipulates the data to provide useful information that an operator of a delayed coking unit operation may view.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to vibration monitoring devices and methods of using such vibration monitoring devices. In particular, the present invention relates to determining the level of coke or coke by-products inside a coking drum, and a non-destructive signature recognition system utilizing accelerometers and mathematical algorithms for signature detection. Background technique [0002] Residues are often produced in petroleum refining operations where crude oil is processed. Many refineries recover valuable products from heavy residual hydrocarbons. When processed in a delayed coker unit, the resid is heated in a furnace to a temperature sufficient to cause a destructive distillation in which a valuable portion of the resid is converted, or "cracked," into useful of hydrocarbon products, and the remainder forms petroleum coke, a material consisting primarily of carbon. [0003] In general, delayed coking involves heating a heavy hydrocarbon ...
