Conductivity in Refining & Petrochemical

Water is a critical component in the petrochemical and refining industry. Conductivity measurements are utilized to ensure the quality of water and enable process improvements. The following are applications directly related to conductivity measurements:
  • Petrochemical Sour Water Corrosion Control
  • Process Water Corrosion Control and Prevention
  • Hydraulic Fracturing Production and Reuse
  • Condensate Cleaning Efficiency and Leak Detection
AlpHa has sensor solutions uniquely tailored to each application, including continuous (process) monitoring sensors and laboratory / field electrodes for harsh environments.
