The Portable FlowCAM particle imaging and analysis system is a compact version of the Benchtop FlowCAM for laboratory operation. It travels conveniently like a laptop, yet has the same commanding range of patented particle imaging and analysis tools as its predecessor. The system automatically takes high-resolution digital images of individual particles and cells in a fluid, measures particle size, length, width, shape, fluorescence and dozens of other parameters in real time, and saves the images and data along with the time and date of collection for further analysis.

The Automated Relative Viscometer (ARV) system is configured for the determination of relative, intrinsic, inherent, specific and absolute viscosity, as well as molecular weight. It features a dual-capillary viscometer designed specifically to measure the viscosities of dilute polymer solutions, a vortex-integrated module that provides fully automated sample preparation and sample delivery.

Having recently received a Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL 2) rating, the XNX universal gas transmitter provides increased plant productivity and safety. In addition, it has been approved by Underwriters Laboratories (UL), Canadian Standards Association (CSA) and ATEX for Class 1 and Class 2 use in intrinsically safe, explosionproof areas. It is designed for applications in the oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, wastewater treatment, and manufacturing industries.

The patented Chloritrol metering system performs accurate, maintenance-free injection of liquid sodium hypochlorite or calcium hypochlorite for treating municipal drinking water. Its unique valveless duplex-pump design features a primary pump that injects liquid hypochlorite directly into the water main and a secondary pump that removes out-gassed bubbles from the system to prevent loss of prime. It self-primes against pressures up to 125 psi. Internal components are made of ceramic, which provides long-term drift-free accuracy.

The Checkmate DL is a portable, handheld instrument that reads corrosion data from a data logger or remote data collector and then transfers the information to a computer for graphing and analysis. Compared to a portable PC, this instrument is claimed to be a better, safer option for use in hazardous areas classified as Class I, Zone 1 or Class I, Zone 2. Since the transmitter and data logger, which are both located at the data source, are already intrinsically safe and explosionproof, the entire corrosion monitoring system is safe for each step in the process.

Top-entry and side-entry agitators, static mixers and other products designed to handle harsh flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) applications are available in stainless steel, high alloys or rubber-covered carbon steel. The corrosion- and erosion resistance found in these materials is an important benefit for abrasive FGD applications. This manufacturer also has the R&D capability to model any FGD mixing application.

Designed to handle semi-dry, high-solids content material, the 2000 HS System is a cost-effective option for transferring dewatered sludge in wastewater treatment operations. The system is equipped with a twin-screw feeder that includes two self-cleaning, intermeshing feed screws that supply a constant, pressurized feed rate to the system’s G4 Progressing Cavity Pump. The resulting 100% pump cavity fill rate enhances overall system performance and cost efficiency. The twin-screw feeder can run at a separate RPM from the pump, allowing control over the amount of stuffing pressure.

A new in-situ technology, HRC Advanced (HRC-A), time-releases a combination of highly efficient lactic and fatty acids that enhance the near-, mid- and long-term biodegradation of many chlorinated and other contaminants, including industrial degreasers, chlorofluorocarbons, carbon tetrachloride, methylene chloride and a variety of pesticides, explosives and dyes. HRC-A is shipped as a concentrate and mixed onsite with three parts warm water to form a micellular microemulsion, which has greater soil-coverage capacity than comparable products.

 ALCHEM Production Platforms are proprietary processes for the design, development, scaleup and optimization of specific chemical compounds. The ALCHEM Biocatalysis production platform uses special proteins called designer enzymes to transform low-value materials into high-value compounds, while the ALCHEM Biosynthesis production platform harnesses cells to convert simple raw materials into complex high-value molecules.

 Developed specifically for clean steam equipment condensate drainage in the pharmaceutical, bioprocess, electronic, food, beverage and cosmetic industries, the CoMBo condensate measuring elbow thermostatic sanitary steam trap features the firm’s ultra-sensitive bellows that maintain less than 6 in. of condensate backup, instead of the traditional 18 in., for loads ranging from 1 to 27 lb/h for vessels sized up to 40,000 L. The steam trap meets ASME BPE code and has 30–50% higher discharge capacity than standard industry sanitary steam traps. It is available with a 3/4-in.
