Integrated technology solutions can help optimize thermal processes and help connect production assets securely in the cloud.

Processors must meet their day-to-day demands while looking to the long term: Managing an analog world in the face of a digital future. For many, it is difficult to know where to start. A good place is their problems.

While programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and advanced controls proliferate in many industrial operations, thermal processes often are the exception that proves the rule. 

Listen to Chad Briggs, Vice President and General Manager of Honeywell Thermal Solutions, talk about the ways to reap the benefits of digital transformation and about the latest developments for NO_x and CO₂ reduction.

A manufacturer of pump accessories for chemical-feed systems, Griffco Valve Inc., Amherst, N.Y., appointed Gregory T. Lucas as western regional sales manager.

Change. It is something that all of us are faced with these days. From COVID-19 to civil unrest, we are facing new business and personal challenges that can also provide opportunities, depending on how you look at them.

As I write this commentary, the world is facing the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. At times, it seems the news will never improve. While I cannot predict when the headwinds will turn in our favor, I can share what has been helping me.

Properly sizing a paddle thermal processor is one of many crucial steps necessary to meet proper production and quality requirements of a given process. A paddle thermal processor is an indirectly heated or cooled, mechanically agitated, highly efficient device for adding or removing energy from a process mass.

Those that have worked with industrial thermal technologies likely remember when the U.S. Department of Energy’s Industrial Technology Program was actively marketing its efforts to reduce industry’s energy consumption — and thereby reduce overall demand for energy.
