scholarly journals Identification and Diagnosis of Fault in Consistent Mixed Tank Reactor using Neural System

The Consistent Mixed Tank Reactor is widely used in chemical processing plants, food processing industries and in pharmaceutical industries. The Consistent Mixed Tank Reactor is a nonlinear process. If any of inputs to the process or any parameters in the process gets changed means the entire working of the plant gets changed. And also it leads to decrease the accuracy of the final or end product. So, to get required end result the accuracy developed in the Consistent Mixed Tank Reactor process where the tank is in running condition need to be identified and necessary steps should be taken to avoid those fault. There are several fault diagnosis methods available. Among those techniques, the Neural System Prescient Controller can be utilized to identify and diagnose the error present inside Consistent Mixed Tank Reactor tank. From the Neural System Prescient Controller, the servo response is obtained to understand clearly about the behavior of the Consistent Mixed Tank Reactor tank process. Thus, by selecting suitable controlling techniques the accuracy of the desired product can be obtained in Consistent Mixed Tank Reactor tank.

Abstract This article discusses pressure vessels, piping, and associated pressure-boundary items of the types used in nuclear and conventional power plants, refineries, and chemical-processing plants. It begins by explaining the necessity of conducting a failure analysis, followed by the objectives of a failure analysis. Then, the article discusses the processes involved in failure analysis, including codes and standards. Next, fabrication flaws that can develop into failures of in-service pressure vessels and piping are covered. This is followed by sections discussing in-service mechanical and metallurgical failures, environment-assisted cracking failures, and other damage mechanisms that induce cracking failures. Finally, the article provides information on inspection practices.

Superhydrophobic coatings provide exceptional protection to electrical circuits, switches, and other electrical devices which operate in wet environments, such as food processing plants or outdoor applications. Among various electrical device applications, electric motors and electrical switches have been successfully tested in the field at two food processors for nearly 20 months with exceptionally good results. Coated microelectronic circuit board has been in operation without any incidence for over 1 year.

After a review of the nature of staphylococci and staphylococcal enterotoxins including data on survival of these organisms under both natural and food processing conditions, the epidemiology of staphylococcal intoxications is discussed. The human nose is the main reservoir of Staphylococcus aureus. A number of circumstances must be fulfilled for foodborne staphylococcal intoxications to occur; these include: a reservoir for the infectious agent, a mode of dissemination of the organism, contamination of a food capable of supporting bacterial growth, enough time at a temperature which permits bacterial multiplication, and ingestion of sufficient amounts of staphylococcal enterotoxin by susceptible hosts. Control measures must be based on these circumstances. Principles of control, therefore, include limitation of contamination, inhibition of growth, and destruction of the organism. Control of staphylococcal intoxication must be emphasized at places foods are prepared (food processing plants, food-service establishments, and homes).
