There is a simple way to reduce moisture in the piping system : change the compressor's supply inlet source. The water resulting from compression weighs more than compressed air, which causes it to sink. If air is drawn in from the compressor's top, less moisture will be sucked in with it.

It supports the quick and easy design of complex 3D piping systems for plants, factories and large systems. M4 PLANT provides an extensive range of tools for selecting piping components, as well as their positioning and replacement.
Process piping refers to the pipes, valves, fittings, and other components used to transport fluids in industrial facilities. Unlike plumbing systems in residential or commercial buildings, process piping is designed for conveying fluids at high temperatures and pressures. Process piping is a key component of many manufacturing operations ...
Piping design, a critical component of engineering projects and process plants, is a crucial aspect of creating systems that transport liquids, gases, or solids from one place to another. It involves planning the layout, selecting materials, and determining the connections between pipes, valves, and other components.
Steam piping is one of the high-temperature and high-pressure piping systems typically found in power plants and process plants. For power plants, the design code followed for steam piping in ASME B31.1 and they have more stringent requirements as compared to the steam piping in process plants which is designed based on the ASME B31.3 code.
Process plants are complex facilities consisting of equipment, piping systems, instruments, electrical systems, electronics, computers and control systems. Figure 1.1 is a picture of a section of a refinery that …
1. Piping systems can and do fail. Engineering should always consider possible failure modes and work to avoid the possibility that the piping system will fail. 2. Even in the best-engineered systems, there are assumptions built into the design. The engineer and designer should recognize these assumptions and allow appropriate allowances. 3.
In a slurry mixture, a carrying fluid held the solid particles in suspension. The common carrying fluids are water, crude oils with milled coal, and air in pneumatic conveying. A slurry piping or pipeline system consists of pipelines, valves, and most importantly slurry pumps. A slurry is non-homogeneous, unlike the liquid or gas phase.

The example system supplies water to several plant loads from a destination tank 50 feet above the supply tank. The level in the destination tank is such that the piping going to the system loads throughout the plant can meet the designed plant load of 500 gpm. The pump for the system can pump up to 616.2 gpm to the destination tank.
PDS or Plant Design System is a comprehensive, intelligent computer-aided design/engineering application. PDS is one of the most popular 3D model piping program used by various Engineering companies throughout the world since 1980. PDS is developed by Intergraph (Currently Hexagon).
Carbon steel pipes. Stainless steel pipes. Alloy steel pipes. DSS pipes. Cast Iron pipes. Galvanized Steel Pipes. Ductile Iron pipes, etc. This category of pipes is suitable for higher temperature and pressure applications. Most of the pipes used in oil and gas, refineries, chemical, petrochemical, power plants, etc. are made of ferrous materials.
Plot Plan Layout. A plot plan (Fig. 4) or site plan is produced by the piping designer which shows a schematic of the whole site with boundaries, roads, buildings, plant areas, equipment layouts, utility runs, and other constructions of the existing project, etc. at a properly defined scale. So it gives an overview of the entire plant. This allows the piping …
A piping system is a network of pipes, valves, and other components used to convey fluids (liquids, gases, and slurries) from one point to another. This is the most efficient as well …
The term process piping generally refers to the system of pipes that transport fluids (e.g. fuels, chemicals, industrial gases, etc.) around an industrial facility involved in the manufacture of products or in the generation of power. It also is used to describe utility piping systems (e.g., air, steam, water, compressed air, fuels etc.) that ...
ASME B31.3 defines process piping as the piping used to carry substances in petroleum refineries; chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, paper, ore processing, semiconductor, and …
The general rule of thumb is to maintain a velocity below 5 ft/s (1.5 m/s). Gravity (g) and the slope of the pipe. An increase in slope decreases the pressure due to gravity. Pipe Diameter (D): The larger the pipe diameter is, the slower the flow velocity will be. Optimal flow rate can be maintained without increasing the velocity, if a larger ...

This valuable and proven piping design method * is actually what we use at our petrochemical plant to design a new piping system or to modify an existing one.
Lastly, in power plants, pipe systems are employed to transport steam, water, and other fluids necessary for electricity generation and cooling purposes. Types of Pipe Systems. Pipe systems can be classified into two main types based on the force or pressure used to convey fluids: gravity pipe systems and pressure pipe systems. Gravity Pipe Systems

15.9.1 Main Steam Lines. Steam lines should ideally be arranged to fall in the direction of flow, at not less than 100 mm per 10 m of pipe (1:100). This slope will ensure that gravity (and the flow of steam), will assist in moving the condensate towards drain points so that the condensate may be safely and effectively removed (see Fig. 15.4 ).
