Available from this company, the HNP 11558 micro annular gear pump features the toughest, most chemically resistant materials for its key components, as well as magnetic coupling for leak-free pumping. For example, ceramics are used for bearings and shafts, the…
Rather than using two, two-way automated valves to control the flow of liquids, a single three-way valve does the job with fewer components and lower costs. The PTP Series is a group of three-way PVC ball valves that protect piping…
Using gene recombination technology, Toyota Motor Corp. (TMC; Toyota City, Japan: www2.toyota.co.jp/en) has developed a new strain of yeast that achieves one of the highest ethanol-fermentation density levels in the world — approximately 47 g/L with 87% yield (based on…
Available in ANSI stainless steel with stainless-steel actuator, the Badger Meter RC200 control valve is designed for handling liquids and gases at pressures up to 5,000 psi and temperatures ranging from –80 to 500°C. The valves are available as a…
A new chopper system has been developed for demanding applications where products tend to bind or harden when adding reactants. The chopper is placed tangentially and at a right angle to the longitudinal axis of the mixer, through both sides…
This company has expanded its iXH family of harsh-process dry pumps with the introduction of the iXH500H Series. This new series of 500-m3/h pumps has been optimized for flat-panel, solar and advanced semiconductor processes that require high gas flows and…
The solenoid valves from the new product Series 6200 are suitable for a broad spectrum of standard applications with fluidic and gaseous media. The first two valves of the series — types 6213EV and 6281EV — are available in brass…
A new non-metallic mobile pump and tank cart is designed to transfer wastewater and caustic or acidic chemicals with no corrosion. All fluid-contact surfaces of the tank, base plate and secondary containment chamber are made from solid polypropylene, polyethylene, polyvinyl…
An improved sulfuric-acid alkylation process that reduces acid consumption by up to 50% from that of conventional processes will make its commercial debut in China. Developed by Lummus Technology, a CB&I company (The Woodlands, Tex.; www.cbi.com), the technology will be…
A novel mesh for oil-water separation with opposite wettability to traditional materials has been developed by a group of researchers from Beijing, China — the Beijing National Laboratory for Molecular Sciences, Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (www.iccas.ac.cn); School…
