Ammonia pipeline, Yara Ravenna – 2.200m of ammonia rack pipeline
Material: carbon steel
Diameter: 2” & 4”
Working pressure: 16,5 bar
Design pressure: 20 bar at max 50°C
Aim of monitoring:
The monitoring of the Ammonia pipeline, Yara Ravenna aims to detect leakages by continuous temperature monitoring. The ammonia inside the pipeline is in a liquid state, but in case of leakage, the ammonia goes out at atmospheric pressure at approx. -30° C (Joul-Thomson effect).
