The Future of Green Hydrogen Blending is Boundless
With the new energy economy come big changes. We all know that energy sources can’t change overnight, so more and more producers and transporters—including those in natural gas—are looking closely at blending as a transitional technology. Today, much of the talk...
Micro Motion™ G-Series: Precision in a Compact Package
Over many years working with end users who are trying to solve challenging flow measurement problems, I’ve often suggested that a Coriolis mass flow meter is exactly the technology solution needed, but in some cases an alternative is preferred for a variety of...
Solving Corrosion Problems by Treating Metal Deterioration as a Process Variable
Imagine that you’re called into your plant to solve a recurring problem. The operator states: “We’ve had to replace this valve three times this year due to failures from over pressure.” Your first question is pretty obvious: “How high is the pressure?” The operator...
Retrofitting a New Transmitter to an Existing Micro Motion™ Coriolis Flow Meter Adds New Capabilities
Most of us know someone who carries a really old smartphone, or maybe just a cellphone. Some people do this deliberately as a statement, but others just can’t be bothered with doing an upgrade. Everybody doesn’t need the latest whiz-bang technology, but many truly...
Software is the Solution for a more Efficient LNG Value Chain
As countries around the globe transition from fossil to renewables, the success of that transition will pivot on a reliable supply of natural gas. But an increase in demand coupled with changing global events has made the liquefied natural gas (LNG) markets more...
Digital transformation in chemical processing: how to start small to scale big.
The chemical industry is facing a unique challenge: a need for growth along with environmental regulations that each day are becoming stricter and more urgent. Limited resources, an aging workforce, aging equipment: achieving both efficiency and sustainability can...
