New QF5k quaternary (four-piston) diaphragm pumps (photo) incorporate a variety of critical design enhancements and offer a maximum flowrate of 6,000 L/h, making them suited for demanding biopharmaceutical applications, such as chromatography, virus filtration, sterile filtration and depth filtration. QF5k…
TurboLab Core (photo) is a small plug-and-play high-vacuum pumping system for research and laboratory and industrial applications. The ergonomic system includes the oil- and maintenance-free Turbovac i turbomolecular pump, the Divac 1.4 dry diaphragm backing pump and a simple controller,…
The MicroEDS BioWaste Treatment System (photo) was recently introduced for biologically hazardous waste decontamination, typically required in the biopharmaceutical sector, laboratories and research institutes. The low-volume system is certified to ASME and ISO/EN standards for treating BSL 1, 2 and…
CREA is an operational intelligence platform that allows management and optimization of integral wastewater treatment processes using real-time data monitoring of key process parameters. CREA provides intelligent decision support, multiple control strategies and automatic reporting on key data analytics and…
DMK SmartPump systems consist of a pump with a programmable logic controller (PLC), which controls the system’s highly advanced servo motor. Motor speed, power consumption and force feedback can be recorded by the PLC, and process information is collected and…
Whether 20 or 40 ft, ISO containers have the advantage of being standardized, easy to stack, statically self-sufficient and are available with effective sound insulation. This company now combines these features with its blower and compressor technology (photo). The high…
LiquiSonic OCR (photo) provides precise real-time readings — without sampling — of oil concentrations in refrigeration lines. The determination of the oil concentration is based on pressure, temperature and sonic velocity measurements in the liquid refrigerant. This measuring principle enables…
To honor the efforts of those chemical engineers and their companies that have successfully commercialized a new process for the first time, Chemical Engineering magazine has been be-stowing its Kirkpatrick Chemical Engineering Achievement Award since 1933. The aim of the…
New XP2i digital pressure gages (photo) are designed specifically for testing and calibrating pressure-relief or pressure-safety valves. Once the valve opens, the XP2i detects the pressure drop and displays the maximum pressure that the gage ever reached before the drop.…
Ethylene is used almost exclusively as a building block — it is the largest-volume petrochemical produced worldwide (Figure 1). Production of ethylene grew rapidly in the middle of the 20th century, when oil and chemical companies began separating it from…
