SIL Process Pump Is Perfect Fit for Emergency Showers in Pulp Mill

Pumping systems are responsible for over 20% of the world’s electrical energy demand, and in some industrial plant operations, they can account for up to 90% of energy usage. Improving the energy efficiency of pumping and mixing systems is crucial in reducing production costs and supporting a more sustainable future.

The rapid growth of renewable energy in Asia is presenting the grid with a challenge: how to flexibly accommodate changing demands with existing thermal power plants? Assets at these facilities, originally designed to provide baseload, are now being asked to cover any shortfall due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy.

Major energy producer in Canada uses local canola oil to produce renewable diesel at industrial scale – relying on a range of Sulzer flow equipment, including specially designed centrifugal pumps. The biofuel will be used to power vehicles, trains and industrial boilers.

A key ingredient of many desserts and a popular snack, the reputation of almonds as a healthy food has steadily grown. This is a trend followed by the global almond market. To meet demand, growers are investing in new orchards with highly efficient irrigation systems.

Sulzer and Siemens Large Drives Applications (LDA) are using their collective expertise to provide operators of large centrifugal pumps with an enhanced digital value proposition: Bringing together their respective IoT-platforms and services, BLUE BOX and SIDRIVE IQ, the two companies are collaborating to deliver an integrated solution that improves equipment reliability and cuts operations costs.

Delta has announced the launch of its new Open-Loop Variable Torque Standard Drive VP3000 for fan, pump and compressor applications. The VP3000 is specially designed to enhance fluid machine operation efficiency and reduce inverter harmonic distortion for a wide range of fluid applications.
