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…
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…
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…
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…
The new SumoFlo CELE-8103-D integral display transmitter (photo) features a 144 mm x 144 mm, four-line display that can simultaneously show flowrate, totalized flow, temperature and product density. Available in both panel-mounted and tabletop configurations, the new transmitter is designed…
The Vortab Insertion Panel (VIP) flow conditioner (photo) features a unique design that maximizes flowmeter performance with minimal pressure drop in a simple-to-install, lightweight thin-panel design that overcomes turbulent pipe-flow profiles. The Model VIP blends the proven performance and low…
Looking at the challenges and benefits of various recycling technologies, this article uses polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) as an example to analyze the economics and design considerations for depolymerization processes Plastics are a valuable commodity in society and provide versatile materials…
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…
The Viper-28 flange-spreading wedge (photo) is said to be the most powerful flange spreader in the world, boasting a spreading force of 28 metric tons and a precision tip measuring just 5 mm. This tool handles a wide range of…
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…
