| Summary: | Some chemical processes are potentially explosive and make use of metallic vessels. Monitoring such kinds of processes using the Three-Dimensional Electrical Impedance Tomography (3D EIT) method is of interest to Industry. The work focuses on the challenge of producing a three-dimensional forward solver for 3D EIT of domains with conducting boundaries. This was limited to two dimensions prior to the start of this project. The problems and shortcomings of 3D EIT in industrial vessels that have a metallic structure are explored with an emphasis on intrinsic safety. This has been evaluated by addressing the project "PROCEss tomography for MONintoring industrial pressure filters (PROCEMON)". It is suggested here that, the ElT software and hardware, presently used in PROCEMON, requires further investigation.
