What is API 936 training course objective?

• Upon the successful completion of this course, each participant will be able to:
  
  
  • Design, apply, install and inspect refractory materials in a professional manner
  • Describe the refractory types and classification, test procedures, effects of additives and explain why chemistry alone is not a critical factor
  • Emphasize the refractory phase relationships and fracture mechanics
  • Inspect and quality control the refractory that includes acceptance/rejection criteria, sampling and testing as well as material and installer certification
  • Discuss monolithic refractories including castable and plastic refractories, compositions and properties, anchorage, design and installation and the effects of firing on strength and thermal properties
  • Employ the refractory installation techniques including modern refractory state of the art, precast modules, storage & handling, failure analyses, etc.
  • Carryout refractory repairs and design various refractory linings
  • Employ and apply the refractory selection guidelines from data sheet interpretation and product choice for designed exposure
  • Determine and practice the refinery application of refractories including FFCU applications, effects of coking, reformers, transfer lines, Sulphur plants as well as the stacks, creep tests and hot spot detection
