/ Innovation<br />

Ekoterm Plus heating oil is a modern and safe energy<br />

source, being a product of the highest quality, complying<br />

with global norms both in terms of operating parameters<br />

and environmental protection standards. It is characterized<br />

by low sulphur content [since 2007 below 0.10% (m/m)],<br />

low adhesiveness, low flow temperature (below –20 o C)<br />

and high calorific value.<br />

In April 2009 the invention made by <strong>PKN</strong> ORLEN employees<br />

was awarded a gold medal at the 37 th International<br />

Exhibition of Inventions, New Technologies and Products<br />

GENEVA 2009. The authors of the project: “Method<br />

of measuring the temperature of heat exchangers pipes<br />

in process furnaces” are Grzegorz Goleniewski, Antoni<br />

Waldemar Korytkowski and Wojciech Komasa from<br />

<strong>PKN</strong> ORLEN and Piotr Pręgowski from the PIRS company.<br />

The essential aspect of the solution is registration of a 10<br />

to 20 seconds sequence (50 frames/sec) of thermal images<br />

in conditions of constant geometry of the set “study object<br />

– metric camera” instead of the registration of individual<br />

thermograms made with a hand-held camera.<br />

The use of the measurement method allows us to eliminate<br />

most disruptions and results in the increase of a measurement<br />

field as well as reliability of imaging of temperatures<br />

distribution in pipes.<br />
