New vacuum pumps for the food packaging industry
Becker Pumps’ new U 5 series vacuum pumps are ideally suited for the vacuum packaging of food.
High vacuum pumps: Operation, specification and configuration
High vacuum pumps provide evacuation of chambers or systems into the high vacuum (10-3 to 10-8 torr) or ultra-high vacuum range of pressure. Mechanical pumps and venturi generators operate in the medium to rough vacuum ranges.
Low-temp photocatalyst may reduce the carbon footprint for syngas
The nanoparticle, which consists of tiny spheres of copper and single atoms of ruthenium, is at the heart of a new low-energy, low-temperature syngas process.
Solution blending pumps for fracking operations
Oberdorfer’s corrosion-resistant Chemsteel pumps are ideal for transferring corrosive liquids to chemical-add trailers that feed hydraulic fracturing operations.
Watt-Flex cartridge heaters offer continuous coil heating technology
Watt-Flex heaters have a unique continuous heating coil which creates a uniform temperature profile.
Report: Rising demand for IoT-enabled pumps to drive North American PD pumps market
The increased integration of machine learning and artificial intelligence in pumps will improve efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
How to control heat exchange
Heat and its behavior are complex. Knowing how and where it’s traveling, and at what speed is difficult. This video shows you how to easily keep heat exchange under control.
New non-flammable replacement for R-410A refrigerant
Honeywell introduced a new non-flammable, reduced global warming potential (GWP) R-466A refrigerant that is compatible with R-410A equipment.
Database documents US liquids pipeline projects
More than 200 crude oil, hydrocarbon gas liquids and petroleum product pipeline projects in the U.S. are now being tracked by a database launched by the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
Advanced process control for injection molding
