Many of the process industries — among them, food and beverage, chemical processing, pulp and paper, pharmaceutical and mining — use vast amounts of water and energy in their day-to-day operations. 

Lowering energy consumption can have a positive impact on the bottom line, and all plants can benefit from reduced operating costs. Any steam venting from the steam and condensate system is the top reason for lost energy in today’s steam systems. 

Purchasing new equipment — whether it is an entire industrial drying system or a new water heater for your home — is no small feat. Many factors should be considered.

A cybersecurity solution designed to protect industrial operators against new and emerging universal serial bus (USB) threats has been released by Honeywell. Secure Media Exchange (SMX) includes capabilities to protect against malicious USB device attacks. Such attacks disrupt operations through misuse of legitimate USB functions or unauthorized device actions.

Drying applications vary: from drying frac sand — a relatively simply process often performed for screening purposes — to applications like drying wetted primer in ammunition — a process that depends on accurate temperatures sustained over time. Yet, in drying applications from simple to complex, airflow and temperature uniformity makes a difference.

You know you need to get control of your industrial process. But, what kind of control does your process need? 

Offered for rent on a temporary basis, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems utilize a 32.5 percent liquid urea solution, commonly known as diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), as the reagent.

Drying system includes an integral baghouse dust collector positioned directly above the fluid bed drying zone. The configuration is designed to contain all of the fine particles entrained in the airstream and allow them to remain in the dryer for processing as product rather than collecting them remotely or accepting their loss as waste. 

Offered in three series, fogging fans provide a cool fog for industrial spot cooling. Hydro SS 700 Series is designed for quiet performance and is available in three configurations: direct feed, bench-top fogger and hanging sump fogger. 

Tandem seal option for the Dean RA Series air-cooled pump helps protect environmentally sensitive areas from ground leaks, increase safety with added protection to avoid flammable fluids and improve compliance with insurance requirements.
