The ready-to-install, self-cleaning Amaclean tank insert (photo) decreases the amount of stagnant water in the pump sump and reduces the need for maintenance and cleaning. In combination with select impeller types used in the wastewater pumps, this tank insert eliminates…
To complement automated production plants, for example, in the food, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, this company has developed the CMAG magnetic inductive flowmeter (photo). This easy-to-install version of the proven IZMAG flowmeter delivers highly accurate and reliable measurement data, helping…
The Dry Vibrating Magnetic Filter (DVMF; photo) is specifically designed to remove very fine iron-bearing contaminants from hard-to-flow fine powders, such as lithium, which makes it well-suited for both lithium producers and users. The standard design of a DVMF consists…
Fluid seals for chemical process equipment are commonly made from a host of elastomeric and plastic materials. Selecting a seal material requires careful consideration of several criteria. Presented here are short descriptions of the major criteria for seal selection and…
A general overview of industrial photochemistry and the design of large-scale stirred-tank photochemical reactors Photochemical processes complement or may even substitute conventional (thermal) processes. The radiant energy initiates the reaction, for example by forming radicals, and in most cases, no…
