Benefiting from Nozzle Flexibility in Piping Design

The inclusion of nozzle flexibility (directional spring rate) in pipe-stress analysis results in more realistic piping reactions on pressure-vessel nozzles, whereby it will be easier to meet the limited nozzle-load capacity of the nozzles. It will surely contribute to a…

This non-invasive temperature sensor is SIL-2 certified

This company has launched an enhanced version of its Ninva TSP341-N non-invasive temperature sensor (photo), which is said to be the first SIL2-certified non-invasive temperature transmitter. Using the surface temperature of the piping to infer the process temperature, Ninva provides…

Improving PRV Cost of Ownership with Upstream Rupture Discs

The costs associated with installing and maintaining pressure-relief valves (PRVs) can often be reduced by equipping systems with upstream rupture discs Reclosing pressure-relief devices, commonly referred to as pressure relief valves (PRVs), are designed to allow for the release of…

Efficient mixing and drying of battery recyclables

The Solidmix technology (photo) is suitable for the pre-drying of shredded battery scrap and has been optimized for the separation of the solvents contained in the batteries. By means of vacuum drying, the solvents can be quickly and reliably separated…

A new single-use perfusion separator

For the first time, perfusion disc separators for continuous production and faster processing can be implemented in biopharmaceutical cell-harvesting processes based on labor-saving, easy-to-use single-use devices. The newly introduced perfusion separators in this series (photo) offer the same advantages as…

Solids’ Characteristics and the Drying Process

Understanding material characteristics is important in designing and defining process criteria for optimal performance of rotary and fluidized-bed dryers The ability to efficiently, reliably and consistently dry bulk solids in an industrial setting relies largely on tailoring the dryer’s design…

This progressing-cavity pump has been upgraded

The NEMO MY magnetically coupled pump (photo) is the latest upgrade of the NEMO progressing-cavity pumps. It was developed for more efficient and safer handling of media with high viscosities (up to 20,000 cP), such as slurries. However, using the…

This tank-bottom valve is suitable for sterile applications

The pneumatically actuated P40 PD tank-bottom valve (photo) is designed for use in sterile applications. The sealing principle of the valve is based on the company’s PD sealing technology, which hermetically separates the actuator from the medium. All actuator parts…
