The Crude Unit Mass Balance Solution uses advanced Industrial AI techniques to detect faulty sensors, reconcile measurements and fill in instrumentation gaps through soft sensors to report feed and product material flows more accurately. Canvass’ Mass Balance solution has been successfully used on a Crude Distillation Column by engineers to diagnose material loss, input corrected measurements into optimization tools, and improve feedstock intake and production. By using the solution in everyday process troubleshooting, engineers can improve unit yield performance while also improving their own efficiency.
