Accurate measurement in chlor-alkali electrolysis sub-processe
In the presence of the German Federal Minister of Economic Affairs and Climate Action, Robert Habeck, a delegation from the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft and the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure of the United Arab Emirates (MOEI) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in Abu Dhabi.
Accurate and process-safe measurements in gas storage facilities
"Untouched since the ice age" is not a marketing slogan, but a fact - a real piece of the ice age that still exists today: When the ice melted, immense amounts of water drained away into the rock of the Swabian Alp mountains. The earth shifting in an unusual way then caused this reservoir to be sealed off approximately 400 meters below the outside world. As a result, EiszeitQuell has an original purity and quality - just like water over 10,000 years ago.
Users in process automation have the most to gain from insight through data from sensors and actuators. This is where the advanced physical layer for Ethernet, short Ethernet-APL comes in, the data highway to the field of process plants. Many questions must be answered when deploying Ethernet-APL for the first time. This article discusses topologies for Ethernet-APL that can be realized with currently available infrastructure components.
Quick and easy to install device for versatile applications
Even under normal conditions it is not simple to always have the right motor on hand to address a wide range of applications. It is all that much more difficult in large chemical companies if several thousand drives have to be kept running around the clock in harsh explosive environments. In the future, one of the largest chemical companies in the world will be depending on a team of external specialists and the comprehensive range of Simotics XP explosion-protected motors from Siemens.
