Monitoring the performance of a steam methane reformer (SMR) is a crucial process in the ammonia, methanol, hydrogen, and steel industries. However, the operation of the SMR close to its material temperature and pressure design limits poses significant reliability challenges, such as creep rupture and cracks caused by high pressures, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical loads. Therefore, regular physical inspections and monitoring of the SMR are required despite the safety risks beneath the reformer.
