Continuous in-line viscosity measurement improves first-pass production goals and delivers an ROI in days.
Refineries processing asphalt face unique operational challenges, especially in colder climates where temperatures dip below 50 °F. PAC’s Asphalt Process Analytics help address these challenges by enabling faster insight into asphalt quality during transfer. To keep asphalt flowable, refineries must heat both slop tanks and pipelines, a process that consumes significant energy and time. Traditionally, samples are sent to the lab for analysis before determining whether further processing is needed – often delaying decisions and leading to unnecessary reprocessing or wasted energy.
PAC’s advanced asphalt testing instruments provide faster, more accurate analysis to minimize delays in the refining process. By reducing wait times for lab results, operators can avoid sending in-spec product back for unnecessary reprocessing and eliminate wasted heating cycles. Our solutions help refineries improve efficiency, product quality, and energy management while maintaining compliance with asphalt testing standards.
