Chemical and Petrochemical Industries

Chemical and petrochemical industries depend on accurate, safe, and continuous process control. Proximion’s chemical reaction sensor solutions and temperature arrays track reaction kinetics, concentration, and heat flow in reactors without introducing electrical ignition risks.

In cryogenic chemical processes or storage, fiber-optic cryogenic sensors provide sub-Kelvin resolution temperature data, essential for process stability.

Our bespoke heat-flux detectors and fluid-level monitors support process optimization, thermal management, and early fault detection.

These sensors can be designed to operate in aggressive chemical environments, maintaining performance where traditional transducers would corrode or drift.

Chemical and process industry

Relevant applications:

Temperature and fluid-level sensors, chemical reaction sensors, cryogenic process sensors, fiber arrays.

Examples:

  • Reactor monitoring — tracking reaction temperature, concentration, and kinetics in real time.
  • Cryogenic storage and transport — ultra-low-temperature monitoring for liquefied gases.
  • Corrosive or hazardous environments — optical measurement without electrical contact.
  • Heat flux and energy balance monitoring — for process efficiency and safety control.
  • Inline process verification — monitoring product quality through optical absorption or refractive index changes.
