The Model TSF twin-screw feeder (photo) is designed for precise batching and weighing applications. The feeder’s dual-helix design combines fast, high-volume filling with accurate dribble flow at the end of the cycle. Its compact design is ideal when limited space…
Oxides of nitrogen (NOx) are a family of highly reactive gases that can be produced naturally, but largely result from fuel combustion (industrial combustion and automobile engines). In the environment, they are pollutants that react with volatile organic compounds in…
The RNT line of bag-dump stations (photo) features an integrated dust-collection system as an option. Devised to prevent nuisance dust exposure in the work environment, the dust-control equipment sets a vacuum pump and filter system atop the bag-dump station to…
Capable of processing viscous solutions, dispersions, suspensions and emulsions with viscosities in the hundreds of thousands of centipoise, this company’s line of VersaMix multi-shaft mixers is built for longevity, speed and efficiency. The VMC-100 (photo), is designed for vacuum operation…
The patented technology to measure buildup can be used to optimize cleaning cycles and avoid unplanned shutdowns To keep operations at peak efficiency, process systems must be kept as clean as possible. However, some of the normal byproducts of operating…
This company is now offering its first refrigerant-free chiller. The TE400 (photo) utilizes Peltier technology to provide efficient laboratory cooling with a range of –5 to 40°C and a cooling capacity of up to 400 W. It is equipped with…
The new Free Rotating Retractor (photo) is a high-efficiency retractable cleaning device that quickly and effectively removes residues from the interior surfaces of hard-to-clean vessels. This retractable cleaning-in-place (CIP) device remains sealed off from the product area during production, flush…
In low-flow applications, Coriolis mass-flow controllers can be susceptible to clogging due to their small orifice. Filtration can solve most common clogging issues. Here are tips for filtration and clog prevention Advanced material and catalyst research, as well as critical…
The Mobifreeze M 270 (photo) is said to be the first mobile battery-powered ultralow-temperature chest freezer. Valuable samples or active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can be safely stored and transported from –86 to –50°C. Natural refrigerants are used to provide active…
Bio-Process Oils (photo) is a new family of blended, highly-refined biosynthetic base oils that maintain flexibility over a wider temperature range than petroleum-based products, making them suitable for use in many types of adhesives and sealants. Their extremely low volatility…
