Articles explore the burgeoning oil and gas industry, including hydraulic fracturing operations, as well as ethanol and biofuel manufacturing. The technologies covered focus on the role of heat and thermal processing equipment.
The BSA and A3S isolation valves are engineered to maintain plant safety and save energy by eliminating stem seal leaks. The valves can help oil, gas, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage facilities reduce energy use and ensure operator and plant safety.
The explosionproof SC Processor has a hazardous location motor that meets National Electrical Code standards for processing Class I, Division II hazardous materials.
Impedance pipe heating is a long-established and accepted — but poorly understood — pipe heating technology. While a simple and elegant way to heat a pipeline, impedance pipe heating technology often is viewed incorrectly and misunderstood as a method to heat process piping.
A U.S. Department of Energy ARPA-E project that began in 2014 with $3.3 million in funding could be the genesis of a hybrid solar energy converter that generates electricity and steam.
An electric heating technology may help reduce carbon dioxide emissions and the reliance upon fossil fuels in petrochemicals, steel and other industries.
Industrial heating can be obtained through various technologies such as fuel, electricity and steam as well as hybrid technologies that combine two or more technologies. Fuel-based heating technology is the most common today due to the relatively low prices of fossil fuels.
The role that boards of directors and executives can play in ensuring that effective safety management systems are in place at oil-and-gas facilities is the focus of a new guide from U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB). “CSB Best Practice Guidance for Corporate Boards of Directors and Executives in the Offshore Oil and Gas Industry for Major Accident Prevention” looks at how company executives can help properly manage risks, with the goal of preventing major accidents and protecting workers, the public and the environment.
Industrial fired heaters are known to be the oldest and most common industrial process devices. Many manufacturing processes (if not all of them) involve heat exchange in some way or another, and the use of fired heaters is a way to provide such energy exchange.
