Mechanical integrity pumps/compressors

Covers mechanical integrity programs for pumps and compressors, including vibrationmonitoring programs... 

BSD system components that are located in areas that would be considered vulnerable to fire exposures (e.g., within tank dike areas, close to pumps, compressors, etc.) should be provided with appropriate fire protection measures to ensure integrity during BSD operation and during major efforts to control an incident. Actuating mechanisms may include control panels, valve actuators, air receivers instrumentation, cabling, tubing, etc. 

The combined production of heat and power in the flame of the same process is called cogeneration. This technique offers opportunities for very efficient energy integration. The generated mechanical work or electricity can be used to drive compressors or heat pumps, while the heat can be used as hot utility. Two major applications will be examined.
