Endress+Hauser Liquiline CDC80 aeration analyser
19 September, 2012The Liquiline CDC80 monitors ammonium load and controls the oxygen blowers so the aeration process only runs until the ammonium value has reached a pre-defined lower set limit.
Mettler Toledo InPro 5500i inline CO2 sensor
20 August, 2012Mettler Toledo Process Analytics has launched the InPro 5500i for inline CO2 measurements for beverage production applications.
Hach LDO (luminescent dissolved oxygen) probe
28 July, 2012Hach’s LDO probe requires no calibration for the 2-year life of the sensor cap, which means it is ready to start measuring dissolved oxygen ‘out of the box’.
Flow meter to measure different rates of flow in a single pipeline developed
16 July, 2012Researchers have developed a flow meter that uses electromagnetic imaging techniques to show the different rates of flow of multiple substances in a pipeline.
Michell Instruments XTP601 thermo-paramagnetic oxygen analyser
27 March, 2012Michell Instruments has released the XTP601 thermo-paramagnetic oxygen analyser to provide fast, accurate measurements of oxygen levels in various background gases.
Emerson Process Management Rosemount 708 Wireless Acoustic Transmitter
05 December, 2011 byLeaking steam traps cause energy and financial losses, and studies estimate that 15-30% of unmaintained steam traps will fail within a 3- to 5-year period. This can equate to a loss of millions of dollars in energy costs.
Polarographic oxygen measurement
26 November, 2011For the measurement of oxygen in continuous process analysis, several technologies are available. Because they differ widely in terms of application coverage, field performance and ease of use, the right technology has to be carefully chosen.
Inline oxygen sensor wins award
21 November, 2011Mettler Toledo has won the Gold Award for the InPro 6850i G inline oxygen sensor in the Gas Analysis category at the 2011 Golden Gas Awards.
Zeck Z9000 Natural Gas Odorisation System
07 September, 2011 byThe Zeck Z9000 Natural Gas Odorisation System is centred around the task of odorising natural gas, simply and accurately, for low-volume applications.
Gas analyser helps calm furnaces
23 August, 2011Extremely high furnace temperatures and increasing water leakage are the main causes of the eruptions in electric submerged arc furnaces. Using a gas analyser to detect small water leaks has helped improve safety at TEMCO's Tasmanian manganese ferroalloy plant.
Land Instruments Lancom 4 portable flue gas analyser
28 April, 2011 byA compact portable flue gas analyser that can monitor up to nine different gases and 17 measurement parameters has been introduced by Land Instruments International, a unit of Ametek. The Lancom 4 analyser weighs 6 kg and is housed in a single robust enclosure for ease of use and reliability in harsh boiler and stack environments.
Spectroscopy comes out of the lab
17 February, 2011 by Glenn JohnsonDevelopments in technologies for building spectroscopes and spectrometers have advanced in leaps and bounds since the first commercial infrared spectroscope was developed in the 1940s and the first FT-IR spectrometer came on the market in 1969. Today, spectrometry is moving out of the lab and into the field and the process plant.
Bronkhorst High-Tech Select series digital mass flow meters
17 September, 2010 byBronkhorst High-Tech’s Select series of digital mass flow meters and controllers for gases are designed to offer greater flexibility for user selection of both flow ranges and gas types. As a result of their ‘multi-fluid multi-range’ feature, in combination with a high rangeability (up to 187.5:1), equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are able to reduce the variety of spare instruments they keep in stock and thus reduce the cost of ownership. Users of MFCs in pilot plants or laboratories can rescale their instruments on site, saving time and money for dismounting and recalibration.
Continuous emission monitoring
14 July, 2010The requirement for continuous emission monitors has changed significantly over the last 10 years. This has been brought about by the increase in use of flue gas treatment systems, reducing the levels of pollutant to be monitored, and environmental agencies worldwide requiring smaller processes to be monitored.
FCI MT91 multipoint gas mass flowmeter
06 May, 2010The MT91 multipoint gas mass flowmeter from Fluid Components International (FCI) has been tested by TÜV Rheinland Germany and found to comply to EN 15267-1: 2009, EN 15267-2: 2009, EN 15267-3: 2007 and EN 14181: 2004.
