The CDA-200 multi-shaft mixer (photo) features a two-wing anchor agitator and two medium-speed agitators, each fit with five rows of three-blade pitched turbines. The mixer can be supplied with two portable stainless-steel mixing vessels and transport covers for semi-continuous operation,…
For decarbonization of chemical processing sites, electrification opens a new world of efficiencies and cost benefits The industrial sector is responsible for one-third of the world’s end-use energy consumption, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA; Washington,…
RuptureSeal leak-stopping devices (photo) can be easily deployed to form a secure mechanical seal that stops leaks for up to 10 h. This technology is fully functional in just 20 s and is said to be faster and cleaner than…
The ability to quantify liquid motion in a stirred tank is a basic step toward understanding how mixing influences process results. Quantifying mixing according to a mixing index (MI) can evaluate and predict mixing intensity related to fluid velocities in…
Manufacturing complexes may benefit from using more electricity instead of steam and fuel gas for their energy needs. Improved energy efficiency, lower emissions, higher reliability and debottlenecking of utility systems may be achieved Electrification is a popular buzzword when energy…
Bulk-solids handling is a critical aspect of many product manufacturing processes throughout the CPI, but the field is often underappreciated. Research centers that specialize in bulk-solids handling and particle technology are important resources for expanding knowledge and solving technical challenges…
As industry seeks to meet their net-zero commitments, captured CO2 must often be transported hundreds of miles to and from carbon-capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) hubs. The new CO2 Transportation Cloud application (app; photo) enables users to make data-driven decisions…
