Advanced Sensing of Materials Processing

AbstractTo implement new process control strategies including Intelligent Processing of Materials, advanced sensors are required to nonintrusively evaluate process and microstructure variables. Researchers increasingly are looking to innovative extensions of traditional nondestructive evaluation technologies, such as ultrasonics, acoustic emission, and eddy current methodologies for this. Here, the nature and characteristics of emerging sensors based upon these new measurement methods are described and examples of their application discussed.

Abstract Based on discussions in workshop sessions, several recurring themes became evident with respect to the optimization and control of petroleum refinery wastewater treatment systems to achieve effective removal of toxic contaminants. It was apparent that statistical process control (SPC) techniques are finding more widespread use and have been found to be effective. However, the implementation of real-time process control strategies in petroleum refinery wastewater treatment systems is in its infancy. Considerable effort will need to be expended to demonstrate the practicality of on-line sensors, and the utility of automated process control in petroleum refinery wastewater treatment systems. This paper provides a summary of the discussions held at the workshop.
