A fire suppression system is a system designed to detect and extinguish a fire using a specific extinguishing agent. ...
They are typically installed in the outlet piping of water treatment systems. Resin traps are essential components in water treatment systems. ...
Here are some numbers for homeowners, property managers, janitors and do-it-yourselfers: Drinking water pipes in new and middle buildings are usually designed for a water pressure of up to 10 bar The common, average supply pressure from the local network is 3-4 bar A pressure reducer in your own home is usually set to 3 bar to prevent the house pipework system ...
Furthermore, it was soon understood that aseptic conditions were important, and systems were created whereby pipework and vessels could be sterilised.Historical Medical Advances using a BioreactorThe discovery of penicillin by Alexander Fleming in the 1920s signalled the beginning of ‘The Age of Antibiotics’. ...
Simdean were asked to explore ways of overcoming a temperature issue at the client’s fish-processing plant in Scotland. The plant takes fish trimmings from all over Scotland and converts them into high-grade fish meal and fish oil. The trimmings come mainly from herring, mackerel, cod, haddock and ...
According to the drinking water ordinance, the limits of iron (0.2 mg/l) and manganese (0.05 mg/l) must not be exceeded as very high quantities can negatively impact people’s health and cause technical damage to the system components of water supply companies and pipework ...
Aliaxis France has been developing a wide range of efficient, sustainable and innovative water management solutions for the last 60 years. The quality and reliability of our products and services, together with our on-going dedication to R&D, have helped open doors to various projects over the years. Among them is the recently opened Mama Shelter West hotel in Paris, located right next to the ...
This phenomenon can see repeated extreme pressure surges in connected pipework, valves and pumps that may fatally damage or rupture the system and its pipework. Even if a failure does not occur immediately the repeated impact of water hammer can promote fatigue that may also ultimately result in a loss of system ...
Flexible Laboratories The scale of the gas delivery system which uses over 75,000 metres of copper pipework to supply more than 3000 outlets in the laboratories is impressive in itself but what differentiates it is the flexibility it offers. ...
While a leak of petrol likely to cause an explosion would be readily smelled, a small leak might not be noticed yet could still pose a significant health risk: with benzene, legislation governs exposure limits of no higher than 1ppm averaged over an eight-hour day, or 5ppm for 15 minutes. Modern tanks and pipework are fitted with leak detection systems, but it ...
A steam trap is a type of valve that filters out condensate and non-condensable gases from pipework without losing steam. The condensate in a typical pipe system may be condensed steam, while a non-condensable gas may be as simple as air. ...
The pumps’ installation needed consideration for the pipework system from buffer input to the five metre high buffer tank (via heat exchangers), through considerable discharge pipe lengths and bends. ...
LBV selected an anaerobic digestion treatment system proven to treat dairy wastewater. Anaerobic digestion also provides the added value of biogas that can be used as a fuel. ...
“We had no previous gas supply but a Peak gas generator is an advantage to the alternative of having pipework and compressed gas tanks being fitted to supply gas for the ...
The local water supply required treatment to prevent scaling in the pipework. The Challenge The existing treatment system required a salt solution to be dosed from a storage tank close to the pumps over a 350m pipe-run to the water supply. The piping system had a series of valves and pipes which were not sealed correctly when they were ...
The Implementation Three Colloid-A-Trons (CATs) were fitted to the cooling system to protect both the cooling tower circuit and chiller water. A single Biokleen was fitted to the Cooling tower circulatory pump-see diagram below: Results The CAT and BioKleen devices were easily installed by Sunstream' s contractor and fitted easily to the cooling system ...
Puretech supplied the turnkey water system for the facility, including pre-treatment, 3mr/hr Oasys, 10,000 litre storage vessel and 2″” hot water system distribution skid and pipework. ...
He focuses on the huge benefits of installing a geothermal system and the importance of building in a maintenance programme at the outset to achieve the maximum potential from that system. ...
The presence of scale deposits or algae growth in the water 2. Deadlegs in the pipework or stagnation due to very low use of outlets 3. Low temperature in potable hot water heaters and distribution systems 4. ...
The units were manufactured in White Polypropylene with Stainless Steel and PFA pumps and pipework. Each system holds two 200 litre chemical drums with continuous level measurement and auto changeover of drums. The units are fitted with an ultra pure filtration system to recirculate and polish the chemicals prior to automatic transfer to the ...
