Anis Zenadji, editor of IEN Europe interviewed Craig M. Carroll, Vice President – Global Marketing & Commercial Strategy at Magnetrol about level measurement technology, challenges faced by the chemical industry, and safety in chemical processes.
For repetitive inspection tasks in harsh and potentially dangerous areas
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.
Bringing Ethernet to the field in process plants
Ethernet reaches the field of process plants
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.

30 years of tradition in chemical and pharmaceutical solids handling allow CO.RA. to guarantee its products based on strict norms. Design and development and manufacturing of products are based in Italy and a qualified service team supports customers worldwide, on-site and remotely.
The modern employee increasingly works in an agile environment. This also includes the workplace. Here, access to all relevant information and data is necessary when working from home, in the office, in the factory or on the factory premises.
While the wheels of industry need to keep turning to produce the everyday items that we take for granted, there is a growing realization that this cannot be done at the continuing expense of the environment.
“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.
Confirming the safety, efficacy and quality of medications is paramount in the pharmaceutical sector, which requires robust data governance strategies. In the world of Pharma 4.0, these need to accommodate an ever-increasing volume of data. Technologies that incorporate gigabit Ethernet and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) are exactly what is needed.
