(What’s on our plate, any given day. Just saw this matched our internet news stream and found it matches our day to day work. Enjoy. The ad came from a review we did of Chemical Processing’s ads for Baxter Research. Heard recently that Emerson just let go a bunch of engineers. My friend retired just in time. From the looks of the ad, I’m sorry to see they are trying to sell Artificial Intelligence. They’re better at selling Real Intelligence.)
(Thanks to Bob for another insightful post. Just last night I did a process equipment marketing review of Chemical Processing’s ads for Readex and reviewed the Emerson ad for “Project Certainty.” Eye catching ad but I can’t believe their claims. What could possibly “look differently” at my rock crushing plant project and replace the 1000 years of experience going into its design. Not to say modern analysis capabilities maybe could help but they are going to have to tell me a little bit more than, “innovate.” Plotting the human mind work flow was impossible just a few years ago. Mainly because what ever idea we came up with was proved wrong by science. Now the science is catching up. Look out, someone’s going to find out that we only work half the time!)

Problem:
A California chemical company’s raw brine is taken from a two-square-mile field owned by oil companies. After breaking the oil out, the brine is injected with ferric chloride and air, delivered to a spreader to clear remaining oil (8 ppm). The purified brine is pumped to treating tanks at the rate of 3000 gallons per minute.
