UK-based industrial consortium commences field trials for low-cost, sustainable inspection in hazardous environments using robotics for non-destructive testing system
For use with conductive and non-conductive liquids in a wide range of processes
The world is going digital - this applies to our private lives as well as to large parts of our work. In the process industries, the focus is often on end-to-end digital engineering, the analysis of big data, or the utilization of legacy data. But in what way can digitalization change daily work routines and increase work efficiency? A practical example is provided by the specialty chemicals company Lanxess, which has abandoned the classic clipboard, thus demonstrating very clearly what digitalization actually means and what benefits it offers.
We interviewed Andreas Hennecke, Pepperl+Fuchs Product Marketing Manager and Ambassador for Ethernet-APL about the development and possibilities of Ethernet-APL for the process industry.
Precision for custody transfer and inventory control
For measurement of relative and absolute pressures in liquid and gaseous media
Verification System for label compliance and quality monitoring
thyssenkrupp supports Emirati company Helios Industry to build and operate the first green ammonia plant.
Easier integration with new nominal sizes and higher flexibility in valve positioning
With the foundation of NEA GREEN GmbH & Co. KG, the NEUMAN & ESSER GROUP (NEA GROUP) is further expanding its portfolio as a solution provider for "green gases" and strong partner for the decarbonisation of energy and industrial systems.
Remote electronic transmission of the measured values via a 4...20 mA output signal with 2-wire technology
Wireless transducers are used to ensure caps are being properly fitted to pharmaceutical bottles in high speed packaging.
Digitalised safety with new diaphragm seal system
Accurate measurement and control of liquids at very low flow rates
PFA-Sensor with large measuring range for use in aggressive media
Working Group is going to test the fueling of melting furnaces with hydrogen
For repetitive inspection tasks in harsh and potentially dangerous areas
Flexibility for flow monitoring of liquid media
The Fraunhofer Cluster of Excellence Circular Plastics Economy CCPE and its Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT have developed an advanced recycling process for used plastics. The pilot project with SABIC and Procter & Gamble serves to demonstrate the feasibility of closed-loop recycling for single-use facemasks.
24 Vdc version, optionally available as battery powered device
AIMPLAS coordinated the European LIFE ECOMETHYLAL Project, which has ended with the construction of a plant capable of extracting up to half a kilo of methylal from each kilo of non-recyclable waste. Methylal can be used as a solvent and as a raw material to produce new plastics. The project focused on recovering waste, mainly from the automotive, electrical and electronic, and packaging sectors, by means of chemical recycling.
Web-based solution for smart monitoring and management of control valves in process plants
IIoT-ready technology starts with pH/ORP, conductivity and dissolved oxygen sensors and will be extended
IP65/NEMA 4 enclosure with interchangeable sensing module for easy replacement
System detects potential incidents through machine learning
For level and pressure monitoring applications
Ethernet connectivity for increased flexibility and simplicity in flow measurement
Contribution to recycling of plastic waste and to increased use of renewable raw materials
“Size changeover” is not necessarily a term that immediately makes people stop and pay attention in the pharmaceutical industry. However, considering the challenges in pharmaceutical manufacturing, which are characterized by cost and competitive pressure as well as strict regulations, intelligent size changeover means competitive advantages in terms of efficiency, product quality and process reliability.
Autumn is the right time for the annual flu vaccination – at least in the northern hemisphere. South of the Equator, populations are vaccinated in the spring. Twice a year, pharmaceutical manufacturers need to produce millions of vaccine doses in a short time to meet demand for the protective drugs. An internationally active supplier relies on Schubert-Pharma to package its syringes containing the vaccine.
Ultrasonic sensor with IO-Link for bulk materials and liquids
Today’s Industrial Ethernet connects any standard ethernet-based protocols. It flexibly integrates devices based on open and vendor-specific (safety) protocols.
Plastic waste redirected into production cycles, distinct greenhouse gas reduction with product properties unchanged
Completion of another step in executing Vision 2020+ strategy for enabling Siemens to become a focused technology company
Prediction of the range of chemicals avoids production downtimes
Monitoring and additional control functionality for any 4…20mA/HART field device
As the importance of reducing CO2 emissions continues to increase, companies are developing new technologies that will enable this on an industrial scale. In the case of C-Capture, perfecting the carbon capture process requires precise solvent control.
New combined service and support center in Dubai for regional customers.
Bühler and Vyncke form strategic partnership to offer low-carbon-emissions food plants
Just like cellulose, lignin and fats, proteins are renewable raw materials. Their potential for the chemical industry remains largely untapped. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV want to change that.
