OK. I was thinking water when you mentioned that there is a limit around 20'. That shouldn't be an issue here - no phase limits.
I appreciate the thoughts....

Thanks David.
The adsorbent materal should be dry, light and small, but it seems I'll be imposing a limitation that might affect the flow rate of the material.
Gravity removal is not a good option- even with pressure assist. There is inert bed material at the bottom that would not need to...
Design pressure is not necessarily what the pipe can withstand - it's what they system will see.
If the line has a pressure limiting device, such as a relief valve or rupture disk, pressure is a pretty straightforward - the design pressure must be above that value. This might be 20% above the...
Hi all:
I'm working on a refinery unit that has a vessel at Deck 12 that'll need to have its dry adsorbent pellets removed once or twice per year as it is spent. This is a new feature on this type of unit, so we don't have specific operating experience.
As we can't be assured the material...
I have a number of pressure and level connections on a vessel that has a lot of particles and gaseous products that could condense at low temperatures into a gummy mess (technical term)
We therefore purge the taps to keep a little reverse flow on the taps to keep them from being plugged. No...
