Decarbonisation and digitalisation in the process industry
KROHNE - SAMSON Academy
Seminar 20 April 2023
First-hand knowledge
Decarbonization and digitalization are two major trends that are transforming the process industry.
Decarbonization refers to the reduction of carbon emissions in order to mitigate climate change, while digitalization involves the use of digital technologies to optimize processes and increase efficiency. These two trends are interconnected, as digitalization can enable more effective decarbonization strategies by providing real-time data, modeling tools, and predictive analytics to optimize energy consumption and reduce emissions. The process industry, which encompasses a range of sectors including chemicals, oil and gas, and manufacturing, has a significant role to play in achieving decarbonization goals. By leveraging digital technologies, the industry can reduce its carbon footprint while improving productivity and competitiveness.
In cooperation with SAMSON, the KROHNE Academy is organising a multidisciplinary seminar on the topic of „Decarbonisation and digitalisation in the process industry“ on the 20th of April 2023.
Topics such as AI for valve management, communication protocols, custody transfer & sustainable solutions for H2 & CO2 applications and much more will be covered. In addition to the lecture programme and live demos, participating companies will display their products, services and expertise on the exhibition floor during the breaks. The presence of the speakers on the exhibition floor and the many contact moments will provide ample opportunity to exchange opinions and experiences.
The event is free of charge for you.
We look forward to your participation!

09:00 – 09:15 h | Introduction + Agenda |
09:15 – 10:00 h | Decarbonisation of the industry - Mark Vandezande Hydrogen is foreseen to play an important role in the energy transition and will be an important piece of the puzzle to decarbonize the industry. Traditionally hydrogen is applied as feedstock in the industry, but with its new role as energy carrier, the volume of hydrogen (especially green and blue) is expected to grow exponentially. KROHNE has many decades of experience in measuring hydrogen in various industrial applications where hydrogen is applied both as feedstock and as energy carrier. In this presentation we will present a selection of these applications and use our field experience to highlight the benefits, potential and challenges of measuring hydrogen. |
10:00 – 10:30 h KROHNE | Custody Transfer - Nico Mathhies During the presentation, there will be a comprehensive overview of the regulations specified in the European measuring instruments directive 2014/32/EU for custody transfer instruments. The annexes that are applicable to gas, thermal energy, and liquids other than water will also be introduced and elaborated upon using specific examples. |
10:30 – 11:00 h | Break & demo |
11:00 – 11:30 h | Strategic position of Belgium in tomorrow‘s energy policy – An Stroobandt Europe has the ambition to become climate neutral till 2050. The current war in Ukraine was not only a wake-up call to remind us of the fragility of peace, but also the fragility of our dependance on fossil fuels. However, energy is not a story of gloom and doom, but also a story of hope. Therefore, this presentation will focus on the long term ambitions for Belgium on climate neutrality and on solutions for electrification and for molecules within the responsibility of the federal minister of energy. |
11:30 – 12:15 h | Control valve solutions for the sustainable H2 value chain - Frank Horlebein SAMSON supplies control solutions for hydrogen service to process industry customers all across the globe. These solutions include control valves as well as digital tools and services that function reliably over decades thanks to their accuracy, ruggedness and efficiency. This presentation will give you more info on hydrogen generation using electrolysis, hydrogen purification and hydrogen liquefaction & transport. |
12:15 – 13:00 h | Lunch break & demo |
