International Society for Industrial Process Tomography

The International Society for Industrial Process Tomography supports research and applications of Industrial Process Tomography (I.P.T.). Processes contained in vessels and pipes make numerous products for our modern world. If we cannot see inside processes we can only estimate their contents.  I.P.T. technology provides an internal view and resulting information leads to optimisation for increased plant utilisation and production, and reduced emissions and energy consumption.

Water/oil/gas flow in a production platform separation process requires detailed information of percentage flows for safety and efficiency, here obtained directly from an IPT sensor

Batch mixing processes combine reagents to form a product material and need information to detect optimum yield point and maximise productivity and efficiency, here using IPT sensor data.

Example 1 - Direct identification of standard multi-phase flow regimes in pipelines from tomography data using a Deep Learning trained network (extracts from Johansen et al)

Example 2 - Direct sensing of rheology properties in pipeline flows (extracts from Machin et al)

Example 1 - Dairy food product manufacture - yoghurt production line (extracts from Food Product Inline Mixer Monitoring and Control Case Study)

Example 2 - Land-forming processes (extracts from Land-forming Monitoring and Control Case Study)
