• • Environmental Protection Through Hydrocarbon Leak Detection.

    Novatech

    Water is one of our planet’s most precious resources. The rapid detection of hydrocarbon traces in process cooling water can be an early indication of a heat exchanger leaks and an easy way for industry to protect the environment.
    Hydrocarbon processes often require heat to achieve the desired reactions. Heat exchangers are sometimes used to recover the heat of the process fluid post-reaction, or simply to cool the fluid prior to transportation or storage.
    Water is commonly used as a cooling fluid, either in closed circuits to serve the entire plant site, or in once-through arrangements from a nearby water source such as a river or lake.
