The new Emission Control Gauge (EMICOgauge; photo) pressure-measuring system features the assembly of a model 2xx.30 pressure gage in a safety version in accordance with EN 837-1 (S3) and a valve to prevent fugitive emissions. An easily rotating adapter with…
Batch high-shear mixers equipped with the Solids/Liquid Injection Manifold (SLIM) Technology (photo) deliver powders in an efficient manner for quick wet-out and complete dispersion into low-viscosity liquids. In a conventional rotor/stator mixer, materials are continually drawn from below the mixing…
The 50-mm HPS high-purity pressure gage with reed switch (photo) is ultrasonically cleaned to provide exceptional quality and reliability in ultra-high-purity gas delivery systems. The reed-switch capability provides an additional safety feature through actuating an internal switch that triggers an…
Solids-handling processes and downstream process steps can benefit greatly from carefully controlled particle characteristics. Presented here is guidance on how agitation agglomeration techniques can achieve desired particle properties Throughout the diverse sectors of the chemical process industries (CPI), the ability…
Launched last month, the energy- and water-efficient AC (activated carbon) filter responds to the market’s increasing demand for advanced and sustainable battery-metals processing technologies. The modular AC filtration technology (photo) is designed for smaller side streams of copper and other…
The Pearlo 350 EAC underwater pelletizing system (photo) has a liquid-heated die plate for high capacities, delivering throughputs of 18,000 kg/h of virgin polymer. The unique cutting-blade design and optimum water- and material-flow conditions within the cutting chamber provide not…
Predictive maintenance (PdM) programs can provide advanced warning of equipment problems and potential failures. This one-page reference provides brief descriptions of six common predictive maintenance methods. Infrared thermography Continuous monitoring of equipment temperature over time has the potential to identify…
Ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber is a terpolymer elastomer derived from ethylene and propylene, along with small amounts of a non-conjugated diene as a third monomer (Figure 1). With a completely saturated polymer backbone, this random elastomeric copolymer exhibits…
The complete product line of this company's stainless-steel constructed NSF/ANSI 61-certified automatic Flo-Trol valves (photo) are now available. The most recent additions to the Flo-Trol flow-regulator line includes 3/8- through 3-in. models, and standard flow range offerings from 0.19 to…
The Titan (photo) is a specific fixed gas detector, based on photoionization detection (PID), designed only for the monitoring of benzene. This makes it the perfect choice for use in asphalt manufacturing plants, where benzene is likely to be the…
