Purpose

Resolve liquid carryover, unstable levels or capacity constraints without replacing the complete vessel.

Arrangement and integration

Equipment functional diagram

The diagram identifies the principal process duties, equipment connections and product handover points. Final scope, redundancy and battery limits are established from project data.
