Gas sampling used a heated 200 °C quartz capillary coupled to a three-stage differentially pumped inlet to minimise recombination and adsorption, enabling accurate detection of plasma-generated species under atmospheric conditions.Ozone (O3) was the dominant long-lived reactive molecule detected. ...
Singapore, known for its humid tropical climate, presents unique challenges for construction equipment, particularly for concrete pumps. High humidity levels, coupled with rain and elevated temperatures, can cause mechanical failures, rust, and the premature wear and tear of concrete pumping equipment. ...
What are Industrial Pumps? An industrial pump is a critical mechanical device used for many applications in various sectors, crucial for transporting liquids, gases, and semi-solids and ensuring the smooth operation of many industrial processes. They are indispensable for enhancing efficiency, safety, and environmental compliance across diverse industries. As a ...
The Client The Edinburgh University Formula Student (EUFS) Team, was established in October 2014 and now consists of over 90 members across the university, with complementary skills in engineering, architecture, business and economics. For the first time in 2016, the team participated in the Class 1 of Formula Student, the world’s largest student engineering competition run by ...
Background Power plants use a wide range of pumps for multiple operations. These include primary pump systems, such as boiler feed pumps and cooling water pumps, as well as auxiliary pump systems, such as fuel transfer pumps, slurry pumps, lubrication pumps, and chemical feed pumps. Unsurprisingly, primary pumps, including boiler feed and water cooling pumps are critical to a plant’s ...
Concrete pump pipe blocking is a common issue faced in construction operations. ...
For example, bleach can corrode the concrete lining in a septic tank or pump out treatment system and cause significant problems with the performance of your system. ...
Submersible pumps are devices with hermetically sealed motors that are close-coupled to their bodies. The entire pump assembly remains submerged in the fluid that has to be pumped. The main submersible water pump function is to drain water from various places. ...
Hydroman™ Submersible Mud Pump is a versatile solids handing pump designed for Mining and Dredging applications where the water is contaminated with suspended solids such as coal fines, sand, and mud. ...
There seems to be a habit in the industry to size the pump to be able to achieve the maximum duty point, with the pump running left of curve for normal and minimum flow rates. ...
The overall efficiency of a centrifugal pump is the product of three individual efficiencies: mechanical, volumetric, and hydraulic: Mechanical efficiency Mechanical efficiency includes losses in the bearings (long couples pumps), stuffing box (in the case of packed gland pumps) and mechanical seals. Volumetric efficiency ...
Your sodium hypochlorite generator keeps your rig or vessel’s cooling water systems free of biofouling. This system is essential—and expensive. Fortunately, routine maintenance and consistent check-ins on its performance will go a long way towards protecting your hypochlorite generator and its parts as well as your investment. However, it’s equally crucial to have an expert ...

One of the most critical systems on ships is the cooling system. Large vessels need a way to safely remove unusable heat from their main engine, auxiliary engines, generators, and other machinery. At the heart of every ship’s cooling system are the marine cooling pumps. These pumps are responsible for bringing water to every component in the engine room and carrying away the excess heat ...
This large domestic property in the tiny hamlet of Bircher was dependent upon oil for its heating and costs were rising year after year. The owners decided to investigate the options for reducing the costs of keeping their house warm especially after a particularly cold, and expensive, winter ...
Voyages across the ocean can take weeks to complete. And with no connection to land, there is no way for these ships to buy more freshwater once they run out. That’s why many ships have a system for producing fresh water and drinking water. And at the center of it is the potable water pump. In this article, you’ll get a closer look at potable water pumps: What exactly potable ...
Close-coupled centrifugal pumps are attached directly to the face of a motor. ...
However, these problems have been completely eliminated with the introduction of Bredel pumps. In fact, such has been their success that Bredel 65 pumps are now being considered for a further application. ...
Solution optimises efficiency In contrast, switching to Bredel 65 hose pumps has shown no reduction in pump capacity, ensuring that the efficiency of the production cycle is now constant. ...
This means that Gabriel’s electricity demand is quite a bit more than most! His house is heated by a heat pump, coupled with under-floor heating. He has solar thermal which assists the heat pump with heating his hot water. Gabriel also has a solar PV system coupled with a battery system, which has a total capacity of 13.5 ...
In such cases where downtime is not an option, most systems feature a back-up pump that can take over if the master pump fails. This was not possible for Klinger’s machines due to the limited space available: another issue for the customer, and for Xylem’s engineers. ...
