One of the world’s largest producers of caprolactam, an organic chemical used as a precursor to the manufacture of synthetic fibers, recently required continuous monitoring of liquid levels in tanks. The temperature range of the medium could reach 170°C (338°F) with an operating pressure of 3.5 bar(g) (50 psig).  Level …

Ammonia vaporisation changes the state of ammonia from a liquid to a gas. Vaporised ammonia is important for use in industrial refrigeration and in pollution abatement technology, such as selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems used to neutralise nitrogen oxides from large electric utility and industrial boilers. Although ammonia is generally …

When natural gas enters a compressor station, it first passes through scrubbers and filters. These processes are intended to remove waste byproducts from the gas before it is compressed and continues to flow through the pipeline. Wastes can be water condensates or heavier hydrocarbons from the natural gas. Extracting and …

Throughout the various processes involved in natural gas refining, the end result frequently involves excess water being captured and removed. Water removal is an important part of ensuring the purest natural gas product possible, but the water cannot be simply drained away. Produced water, wash-down water or collected rainwater requires …

The liquid gas market is booming. LNG and LPG, liquefied natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas, are among the most promising sources of low-emission mobility in the future. When the first LNG-powered container and cruise ships are launched in the next few weeks, extraordinarily cold-tolerant level sensors will also be …
