Abstract

See full text

A detection system for use with a pipeline network having a fluid flowing therethrough. The fluid contains an ingredient that deposits on the interior walls of the pipeline network. The detection system is interposed within the pipeline network and comprises a first fluid path and a second fluid path. A material is distributed throughout the interior of the second fluid path that is capable of inducing and accelerating the deposition of the fluid ingredient on the walls of the second fluid path. A sensor exposed to the second fluid path monitors changes in the path indicative of deposit build-up. The sensor communicates with a control system. The control system directs a chemical injector to introduce chemical inhibitors into the pipeline network to inhibit ingredient deposition on the walls of the pipeline network.
