While traditional centrifuges have separate pusher and drive motors, the ecoOne pusher centrifuge (photo) has only one motor for both functions, thus significantly reducing installed power and power consumption. Pusher centrifuges with two motors generally only require the full power…
New developments in augmented reality can help plant operators fix critical issues while limiting the number of outside visitors entering the facility Reducing risk is an important goal for any plant or petroleum refinery to maintain the health and safety…
The Kaiser Raman embedded analyzer (photo) collects in-situ process measurements, enabling realtime process monitoring, optimization and control. With this continuous automation, users can maintain a continuous pulse on the safety, quality and efficiency of their operations — whether in laboratory…
The XPR automatic balance (photo) applies active machine learning to powder weighing, delivering accuracy, speed and safety for weighing potentially toxic or active substances. The XPR significantly reduces exposure risk while ensuring precision and safety by dosing from an enclosed…
The compact design of this new monoblock with flange connection (photo) integrates a shutoff valve to separate the process from the instrument side. The one-piece construction and the double sealing (metal and plastic), tested in accordance with BS6755/ISO 5208 leakage…
A look at how advanced analytics facilitates and improves process safety efforts within the chemical process industries (CPI) Simply by the nature of some of the chemicals used and the associated complex processes involved, chemical plants can be hazardous. With…
This company has launched a Kynar-lined static mixer (photo) to enable homogenization and dispersion of liquids and gases without using any moving parts. Due to its enhanced chemical resistance and high-temperature capacity, this mixer is appropriate for challenging chemical applications,…
KASE air-system enclosures (photo) is available in several standard configurations, including two 100-hp, one 250-hp, or three 100-hp rotary-screw compressor units with refrigerated dryers. Also available is a 125-hp oil-free package with a heat-of-compression dryer. Instead of selecting compressed-air equipment…
To withstand the harsh conditions and potential safety risks encountered in urea agricultural applications and other severe-service processes, special consideration must be given to valve construction, performance and installation Severe-service valves (SSVs) are specially designed and manufactured for critical applications…
In all phases of a valve’s lifecycle — from fabrication to decommissioning and storage — corrosion protection is essential Corrosion can be a serious source of valve damage, and it can often result in costly leakage, failures and repairs or…
