You could write the session id into a table when the session is started,
along with the start time.
Something like
sessionid CHAR|starttime DATETIME|lastvisittime DATETIME
You could then update this table each time the user visits a page, and
delete it if the interval between starttime and lastvisittime is longer than
you want. A cron job/scheduled task could be used to clean this table up
periodically
