Smart Valve – A secondary backflow preventer for accurate water metering
Flow Dynamics designed a flow management device to eliminate waste and ensure users only pay for water delivered to its point of use.
Preventive vs. predictive maintenance: Which is right for you?
Preventive maintenance and predictive maintenance programs each have pros and cons and can save money, but there is no single best answer. Which is right for you?
What are OEM pumps?
OEM pumps are a class of pump manufactured for use by original equipment manufacturers as part of a system sold to end users.
Gexol oil and gas cables for harsh environments
Offshore applications require cables that can reliably withstand the challenges of harsh, remote environments.
Heat trace systems for wet-pipe fire sprinkler systems
Chromalox has developed the industry’s first third-party-certified fire sprinkler pipe freeze protection system for wet-pipe fire sprinkler systems, an attractive alternative to dedicated dry-pipe systems.
Why direct steam injection liquid heating is the preferred choice for many industrial applications
Designers have many choices for heating water, liquids or slurries, but direct steam injection (DSI) heaters should be at the top of the list of options for these challenging applications.
Omniguard coils address corrosion potential
Armstrong Omniguard coils incorporate a proven tube and fin design to effectively combat corrosion potential and extend the life of the evaporator coil.
Controlling fluid viscosity in tank heating applications with electric heaters
Whether it is ensuring chemical reactions occur at the optimal temperature, preventing liquids from undergoing phase change to solids (freezing) or regulating fluid viscosity to guarantee smooth flow, precise fluid-temperature control is crucial to industrial operations.
New geothermal heat pump equipped with Wi-Fi
Bosch’s new CDi series Greensource geothermal heat pump comes equipped with a microprocessor-based control board that provides for real-time feedback along with wireless connectivity for start-up and commissioning.
Keeping flammable media contained during a fire
Where do large quantities of flammable liquid in the tanks and pipes go during a fire?
Orbital Gas Systems showcases new technologies at open house
They have developed several featured technologies, including their GasPT analysis units and VE Technology sampling equipment for natural gas infrastructure.
Clarke’s patented shutter valve addresses fugitive emissions
Clarke Valve has secured European Patent Office (EPO) protection for its innovative shutter valve technology, which delivers precision throttling and nearly leak-proof operation while inducing minimal cavitation with no apparent pressure drop.
Nigeria looks to commercialize associated gas
Nigeria looks to capitalize on associated gas and eliminate the practice of gas flaring through a national program that is currently receiving bids from third-party vendors.
Zama shaping up to be a world-class reservoir
The Zama field, located in the Suerte Basin in the Gulf of Mexico, is considered capable of supporting production rates in the range of 150,000 to 175,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Boe/d) and with a second successful well test recently completed it remains on track to be one of the largest shallow water oil discoveries of the past two decades.
Hydra-Cell revolutionizes linear flow metering
If accuracy is the goal of metering pumps, why settle for pulsing flow?
First heart is 3D printed with patient's own cells
Cardiac structures have been previously 3D printed, and now scientists have 3D printed a heart containing blood vessels, cells and chambers, using patients’ own biological material.
Engineered membrane for natural gas purification
Researches at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) developed a selective and highly permeable polymer membrane for natural gas purification that is composed of long-chain polymers with shorter side chains resembling the bristles of a hairbrush.
Contract awarded for munitions plant project
Under the EPC contract, Burns & McDonnell will build a steam boiler facility capable of delivering 1 million pounds per hour of process steam.
Highly reliable heat pumps keep you cool all summer long
Lennox International expanded its line of single stage heat pumps with two new models that incorporate their proprietary Quantum Coil technology.
Outdoor air handler with a virtually leak proof roof system
A new semi-custom outdoor air handler is complemented by a patent-pending triple-layer roof system to virtually eliminate the possibility for leakage.
