Abstract

Gamma scanning technique is known to be an effective method for survey the condition of distillation columns in petrochemical refineries and has been widely applied. The result of the gamma scanning is a 1-dimensional graph showing the transmittance counts according to the height of the column. To illuminate the important phenomena occurring on the tray such as foaming; flooding; weeping due to valve failure on the tray needs experienced people and the interpretation results are still quite qualitative. The method of 2-D gamma scanning and reconstruction (2D Tomography), which has just appeared in the world in recent years, is considered as a potential method to help detect the above phenomena. This report presents the two-dimensional gamma scanning configuration, mathematical calculation and noise processing methods by using the combination of Xiaolin Wu’s line drawing algorithm with simultaneous algebraic reconstruction algorithm (SART) based on data from Monte Carlo simulation.
