  • Publication number: 20230118403
    Abstract: Provided is a propylene oxide production apparatus including a switching mechanism that is capable of switching a state of each reactor between an operating state where reaction raw materials are supplied and an epoxidation reaction is performed and a non-operating state where the supply of the reaction raw materials is shut off. The propylene oxide production apparatus is capable of changing a reactor in the non-operating state one by one, and performs switching in such a way that only reactors in the operating state are connected fluidically in series or in parallel, thereby enabling supplying the reaction raw materials to the reactors in the operating state. A sampling mechanism is also provided that samples part of the reaction mixture from each discharge line that is connected to each reactor.

  • Patent number: 10928004
    Abstract: The present invention includes a threshold value calculation unit that calculates a normal range that is a range of values that are taken when a steam trap is in a normal state, by using a predetermined calculation reference, based at least on state values with normal determination results, from among state values that have been stored in the storage unit during a predetermined period. A determination unit can perform predictive determination to determine whether the steam trap is in a normal state or a state that indicates an inclination toward a bad state and is highly likely to change to a bad state, by determining whether or not the state values are in the normal range, and the threshold value calculation unit performs accuracy determination to determine the accuracy of the predictive determination based on the results of the predictive determination regarding the state values stored in the storage unit, and adjusts the calculation reference based on the result of accuracy determination.
