The article examines the Khurais Central Processing Facility (KhCPF) team's experience in developing, executing, and implementing the two projects. It mentions that development, installation, and commissioning of the highpressure (HP) gas compressor swing line system and flare gas recovery system were executed based on these environmental principles; and also mentions the KhCPF implemented best practices for tackling environmental emissions indirectly.

The article highlights the ways to know about the work of variable displacement a/c compressors and to diagnose them. It focuses on to recall an A/C component called a Pilot Operated Absolute valve that prevent the evaporator's outlet pressure from getting too low; and also highlights the rise and fall of Cycling Clutch Orifice Tube systems born out of increase fuel economy requirements.

The article discusses use of different pressure relief devices to control or limit the pressure in a system. Topics discussed include pressure relief valves self-actuated spring-loaded valve for allowing pressurized fluid to exit, pump or gas compressor protected by bypass valve, and types of pressure spikes relieves by using rupture disks.
