A consortium, led by the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO; The Hague; www.tno.nl), has received an exceptional grant of €21 million from the European Commission under the Horizon 2020 Framework Program to investigate and develop the potential of…
New MIM electromagnetic flowmeters (photo) provide accurate readings in a space-saving design. With extensive options for onsite programming, they are suitable for a wide variety of applications, particularly in batching operations, such as matching media during coating of tablets or…
The ASCO 141 Series advanced redundant control system (ARCS; photo) provides a redundant solution for a variety of emergency-shutdown valve applications. The system includes various redundant solenoid configurations to enhance the reliability of the process and meet specific safety or…
The Interceptor-QV explosion-isolation device (photo) uses a patented system where a differential pressure switch continuously monitors the pressure drop across the mesh cartridge, alerting operators if buildup of dust occurs on the mesh. The core feature of the Interceptor-QV is…
Forblue S-Series ion-exchange membranes (photo) are designed for electrolysis and electrodialysis applications that require robust chemical-resistance performance. Because they are made from fluorinated resins, all S-Series wet and dry grades ensure chemical resistance and mechanical strength, while providing outstanding current-carrying…
The new C-30 C-clamp (photo) permanently mounts on machinery while retracting easily without tools for quick access to the interior of a variety of machinery, such as dryers, mixers, conveyors, tanks and reactors. The new clamp delivers up to 1,700…
By exploring strategies for process integration, such as waste-heat recovery and combined heat and power generation, plants can significantly improve their energy efficiency and reduce utility costs In a chemical processing plant, utility costs typically account for about 10 to…
This company is expanding its range of fluid sensors with IO-Link-capable sensors for flexible and reliable process temperature measurement. Both compact devices are equipped with an integrated temperature probe (TS700), as well as processing and display units (TS720) for connecting…
Conventional adhesives, such as epoxy, are designed to cure using moisture, heat and light. Curing is necessary to cross-link and bond the glue with the two secured surfaces as the glue crystallizes and hardens. Now, scientists from Nanyang Technological University…
The DC Tromb line of dust extractors (photo) features several recently updated models. The recently remodelled versions of the Tromb range meet modern safety requirements while offering ergonomic and modular functions. One of the major updates is that the new…
