Until the last decade, low pressure blowers used lobe or roots compression technology to produce air for use in a variety of industries. However, the screw blower is becoming the preferable option due to its efficiency benefits - particularly in...
There are 2 ways of pneumatic conveying. One is called dilute phase, which requires pressure levels up to 0.3-2.5 bar(g). This is used for materials with a low bulk density. The other type is called dense phase. This needs pressure levels of 1.5-4...
Process filter integrity testing for critical applications
July 23, 2024
Regardless of what industry you work in, it's important to conduct process filter integrity testing to ensure optimal conditions for your production. This is especially true for applications involving human contact like food and beverage, cosmetics...
Compressed air dryers are crucial for protecting air tools but they are also key to ensuring the quality of your end product and the energy efficiency of your process.
It costs a lot in electricity to run a compressor. Our business line manager, Ken Revell, explains how careful planning of the compressed air system design, and smart thinking in running it, can keep the costs under control, saving electricity and mo...
Anyone who runs a compressed air system (using oil-injected technology) needs to be aware of how to properly dispose of the condensate in a responsible manner. Here’s how you check your compressed air supply.
An energy recovery system enables the waste heat energy to be recovered and reused in other manufacturing processes. a properly designed heat recovery unit can recover from 50% to 94% of this available thermal energy as low-grade heat. This can be us...
ISO 22000 has quickly emerged as one of the most important global food & beverage (F&B) quality standards, and plays a vital role in ensuring quality and transparency. But how far should ISO 22000 certification spread within the F&B industry?
Centralisation, space, clean intake air, proper ventilation and health & safety regulations are among the factors to consider when designing your compressor room.
