In addition to the on-the-spot identification of more than 30 plastic types, PET-A can now also be distinguished from PET-G with a handheld device
Modular gantry for installation without ceiling mount
Looking at all of the business sectors in Germany, industry requires the largest amount of water. This makes access to efficient technology for cleaning and recycling water all the more important for this sector in particular. Ideally, this technology should also allow energy and valuable raw materials to be retrieved so that they can be reused in production.
Yokogawa Electric Corporation announced that it has been selected by Shell Plc to be the main automation contractor (MAC) for the construction of its Holland Hydrogen I plant in the Dutch port of Rotterdam.
Endress+Hauser once again scored 76 out of a possible 100 points in the EcoVadis sustainability audit. The Group was thus able to maintain its top position from last year and continues to rank among the top percent of comparable companies.
Connectivity of plant processes will enable sustainable water and energy usage and drive effective digitalization in breweries
Every day, sensors in production plants collect huge amounts of data. However, companies seldom realise how valuable the correct evaluation of large amounts of data is. This creates data graves whose potential remains undiscovered. The Heubach Group had a similar experience. However, with Festo AX artificial intelligence, it was proven that benefits for maintenance, engineering and productivity can be achieved from central PID data.
New Scotland-based centre will develop and provide training for next-generation gas sensing technologies used for emissions monitoring, process control and safety
Robust models with optional CO₂ module for reliable monitoring
German Water Partnership e.V. is the network of the internationally oriented German water sector and unites over 300 companies. The course for the future was set at its 18th General Assembly held in July 2022 in Berlin.

Since 1 February 2022, Michael Kohl has been in charge of Business Development at SAMSON. According to Dr. Andreas Widl, Chief Executive Officer of SAMSON AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT, Michael Kohl will support SAMSON to evolve into a data-driven, process-oriented industrial company with a clear strategic focus. "This transformation as well as the expected global growth accompanying it can only be achieved through...
"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.
DUO PLAST and BASF cooperate to launch the world’s first stretch film approved for use in potentially explosive areas
Methanol reformers convert easy-to-transport methanol into hydrogen. But conventional reformers still come with a number of drawbacks – catalyst attrition, to name but one example. An innovative methanol reformer for mobile applications from the Fraunhofer Institute for Microengineering and Microsystems IMM is able to overcome these challenges.
