Accurate Data for Mass-balance Calculations in Pilot Plants
A pilot plant in the chemical/petrochemical industry is a small-scale simulation of manufacturing operations where results determine the most suitable process and the best equipment for scale up. A pilot plant reduces the technical and commercial risk associated with large process plants by providing valuable preliminary scientific data about reactions, material properties, process yields and…
Explore new paths towards an environmentally friendly energy transition
Our mass flow controllers for ammonia gas are being used in research to explore new paths towards an environmentally friendly energy transition. Ammonia is often referred to as a key component in hydrogen transportation, but it has great potential to become an energy carrier of the future itself. The challenge is posed by the technically demanding combustion process. Apart…
