Fiber-Optic Temperature Monitoring in High-Temperature Chemical Processes #408

When:  Apr 23, 2026 from 04:00 PM to 05:00 PM (FR)

This MTI project explores the potential for the application of fiber-optic sensors for monitoring temperature in high temperature applications such as reformer furnaces, reactors, and fired heaters used by MTI member companies. Fiber-optic sensors have been successfully used in difficult environments with advantages including small size, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), chemical corrosion resistance, high sensitivity, and capability for remote operation.  This presentation will review the results of Phase 1 of this two phase project aimed at evaluating the performance of different types of sensors and sensor mounting options relevant to CPI equipment.
