Abstract

The deposition of scale in oil pipelines leads to unavoidable damage of the equipment parts. therefore, suspension of oil operations becomes essential to replace the damaged parts. such interruptions are escorted by extremely high costs. in this paper, we report the fabrication of a new type of sensor and system for complete online monitoring of scale deposition with great accuracy and reliability. the fabricated sensors are based on CNTs and graphene. the sensors are fixable that can cover large area of the pipelines. two different methods are used to prepare the CNMs sensor; smear casting and the inkjet printing technique, in addition, the sensor is integrated into membrane structure and fabricated in cleanroom.
