12F-TWW-0 pressure/vacuum relief valves (PVRV; photo) are designed to increase protection against damage to tank equipment caused by overpressure or excessive vacuum. These new devices are said to achieve superior sealing performance and industry-leading flowrates within a smaller valve footprint…
Effective control technologies are crucial for mitigating the adverse effects of air pollution. The selection of combustion-based or non-combustion-based technologies requires careful consideration of numerous factors Air-pollution control technologies are critical for reducing the negative impacts of industrial operations on…
This company has recently added 4–20-mA signal capabilities to its Chem-Feed CD1 multi-diaphragm metering pump (photo) and its Flexflo A1 peristaltic metering pump. The 4–20 mA signal can be sent from the pump to a SCADA system where operators can…
Using the food-and-beverage industry as an example, these considerations can help engineers design new facilities with sustainability built in Rapid population growth and geopolitical tensions continue to keep food security a top priority for nations all over the world. These…
Discontinued series IDs associated with producer prices for storage tanks requires a modification to the CEPCI The Chemical Engineering Plant Cost Index (CEPCI) is a widely used tool for comparing plant construction costs in the chemical process industries (CPI) between…
The Coralink digital ecosystem (photo) provides closely networked support for this company’s actuators, helping plant operators across all phases of the plant’s lifecycle, from commissioning and predictive maintenance to active lifecycle management. At the heart of Coralink is the ability…
Monitoring particle sizes in real time can improve product quality and reduce costs in chemical processes. Presented here is an overview of available technologies for particle-size analysis and an example involving suspension polymerization Effective measurement, in real time, of particle…
The new DB series of side-channel blowers are suitable for rough industrial processes, such as drying, pneumatic conveying or suction processes, where high flowrates are required. In the blowers, vacuum is created by the kinetic energy of the rotating impeller.…
The PSRmodular XC (eXtended Conditions) configurable safety modules (photo) enables functional safety requirements to be reliably implemented, even under extreme ambient conditions. The new modules have an extended temperature range of up to 70°C. They are equipped with a coated…
Noise-COM 500 products (photo) are Bluetooth-enabled hearing protectors specifically designed for use in extremely harsh, noisy operations. They are suitable, for example, for use in construction, mining or other heavy industries where using hearing protection is vital, and the ability…
