Materials often owe their performance to subtle differences between surface sites, yet these variations are not always easy to distinguish experimentally. As temperature changes, molecules bound to a surface respond in ways that reflect how and where they are attached. Temperature programmed desorption uses controlled heating to trigger such responses in a systematic way. When evolved gas ...
The Challenge Many industrial furnaces operate in oxygen depleted conditions, emitting high levels of ammonia, NOx, and other nitrogen-bearing compounds. This presents a significant challenge for manufacturers striving to meet air quality regulations and limit carbon output. Emission streams that contain nitrogen bearing hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) cannot be thermally treated in a ...
OverviewThis case study details the challenges faced by industrial facilities in treating nitrogen-bearing hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) from oxygen-depleted furnaces, highlighting the limitations and high operational costs associated with traditional Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems for NOx reduction. To overcome these inefficiencies, Anguil developed the Multi-Staged Direct Fired ...
Investing in renewable energy Keywords: investment, renewable energy, biogas upgrading, biomethane, green gas How good of an investment is Renewable energy? The market for renewable energy is young when compared to the established fossil fuel market. Conventional wisdom therefor may convince to invest in fossil fuels, but this wisdom is obsolete. A sustainable investment A low carbon, ...
The quantity of waste that humans create each and every day is completely staggering currently. The most significant problem with modern waste is the fact a lot of it really is non-biodegradable, and several may take over one thousand years to finally decompose. It is a huge problem for cities around the globe which are literally buried in garbage and waste. However, there is now an ...
The CI 340 is a small, portable, handheld device that uses infrared light to measures gas concentrations entering and leaving the leaf chamber. The leaf chamber encompasses the whole or part of a leaf to estimate transpiration, stomatal conductance, and CO2 absorption. The instrument measures water vapor entering the ...
Cadmium is a heavy, non-biodegradable metal that is toxic to plants, people, and animals. With increasing pollution and emission of cadmium, its levels in agricultural soils are increasing. The risk to humans is high due to consumption of cadmium-contaminated food. Modern applications of gas analysis and laser measurements are speeding up research in addressing the problem of cadmium stress. ...
One of the main tasks for the coming decades is to leave as much oil, gas, and coal in the ground as possible so we can decrease the amount of greenhouse gases we put into the air. ...
Our most advanced nitrogen generator comes with an exceptional warranty as standard. Not all warranties are created equal and, at Peak Scientific, we believe that the warranty for all of our gas generators is the best on the market. We believe this because all of our generators come with a truly comprehensive on-site warranty. This means that should your gas generator develop a problem, we will ...
Boilers play a crucial role at industrial facilities and it is imperative that they be safely and properly maintained. Routine boiler maintenance can help prevent unplanned shutdowns and outages, increase the efficiency of the boiler and cut operating costs, and ensure that the facility is in full compliance with all laws and regulations governing boiler safety. What follows is a boiler ...
Methane emissions and their climate effects have been given an increasing amount of attention over the last few years from academia, industry and policy makers. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have lead the way in proposing new performance standards to reduce methane emissions from the natural gas industry by 40% by 2025 from 2005 levels. But how much of a climate problem really is ...
Study finds pledges by top greenhouse gas emitters leaves little room for others; urges greater R&D. Original story at MIT Over two weeks in December, delegates from virtually every country in the world will gather in Paris for the 21st annual United Nations Climate Change Conference. Their ambitious goal: to hammer out a binding international agreement on climate action. In advance of ...
Conventional pressure-swing adsorption (PSA) has been used ito separate and purify industrial gases for more than 35 years. The technology, first developed by ExxonMobil and Air Liquide in the late 1950s, is based upon the capacity of adsorbents to selectively adsorb and desorb particular gases as gas pressure is raised and lowered. PSA is currently used in applications ranging from the ...
Midstream Company Epcon has extensive experience in designing and building Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers (RTO's) for the Midstream Industry. The Problem A leading Midstream company needed equipment to achieve higher DRE and treat the H2S (sour gas) from their process. The company went out seeking the technical solutions and went to several manufacturers to locate the best possible technology. ...
The hazards associated with CO2 in the brewing industry are well known, yet people still die needlessly every year in tragic and completely avoidable accidents in breweries. Just last year in Germany, which has a good safety record, two workers died in separate incidents at the same brewery. In the first incident, the owner was found dead with his head and torso in a beer mixing tank. It is ...
FOREWORD Advanced Cyclone Systems, S.A. (ACS) designed and supplied a Hurricane cyclone system for Duna-Drava Kft cement plant in Beremend, Hungary, (a member of the HeidelbergCement Group, the global market leader in aggregates), as part of an energy recovery project. To maintain the quality of the ground Pet Coke within the specifications in terms of ash content, ACS was contacted with the ...
A confined space is any space large enough for someone to enter and perform assigned work, which has limited means of entry or exit, and which is not designed for continuous worker occupancy. This covers just about every industry, including utilities, construction, hydrocarbon exploration and processing, petrochemicals, marine, agriculture, food processing and brewing, as well as the emergency ...
Introduction A confined space is any space large enough for someone to enter and perform assigned work, which has limited means of entry or exit, and which is not designed for continuous worker occupancy. This covers just about every industry, including utilities, construction, hydrocarbon exploration and processing, petrochemicals, marine, agriculture, food processing and brewing, as well as ...
Considering growing energy demand and the increasing cost of fossil fuels, many countries have felt the pinch and are either looking into alternative energy options or using them already. One of these countries includes the big oil producer Kuwait. Kuwait has joined a club of renewable energy promoters and recently began shifting its focus to renewable energies for the purpose of reducing the ...
An engineer repairs buried cables; a plant manager enters a small plant room; a contractor inspects the lining of a sewage pipe. All these personnel face a common danger, despite working in widely different industries. Gas-related injury poses a serious threat in any confined space where the free movement of air is limited. A confined space is usually defined as any space which is large ...
