With a minimal footprint of approximately 1 m², the compact Aircenter systems (photo) are available for flowrates from 0.34 to 2.7 m³/min and also provide application-specific compressed-air treatment and storage. All Aircenter models are characterized by their exceptional efficiency. At…
The GS variable-speed drive (VSD) compressor (photo) can adapt and optimize its operations, thanks to “smart” features. The GA VSDS (photo) is the third generation of VSD compressors. VSD compressors significantly reduce energy consumption by adjusting their motor speed to…
Concise tips on selecting the right valve A typical chemical plant contains miles of piping and hundreds, if not thousands, of industrial valves (Figure 1) that are essential for the plant to operate efficiently and safely. Unlike the simple consumer…
In crossflow membrane filtration (CMF), feed flow is parallel to the filtration surface (rather than perpendicular to it, as in conventional filtration). During a given pass, a portion of the feed permeates the membrane, while a larger portion is retained…
Fouling of heat exchanger surfaces reduces thermal efficiency. An improved understanding of fouling and the design factors that affect it can help ensure that heat exchange occurs during normal operating conditions Using tubular heat exchangers is an efficient and reliable…
SLB (formerly Schlumberger) and Linde plc (Guildford, U.K.) announced that they have entered into a strategic collaboration on carbon capture, utilization and sequestration (CCUS) projects to accelerate decarbonization solutions across industrial and energy sectors. The collaboration will combine decades of…
London-based firms INEOS Olefins & Polymers Europe and Plastic Energy have announced a Memorandum Of Understanding to produce 100,000 tons per year of recycled raw materials from plastic waste. This will be the largest use of Plastic Energy technology on…
