Trends and mega trends in process engineering
Y
stral, the mixing and dispersion technology
specialists, take the experience they
gain from one industry and apply the solutions
in other sectors. This multi-industry
approach allows producers to benefit from
ystral's extensive knowledge across a multitude
of products, processes, and industries.
New technologies, changing production
requirements, frequent product changes,
and stricter requirements for occupational
safety and environmental protection are
fundamentally changing manufacturing
processes.
Trends in process technology often differ
across industries, even for similar processes,
as manufacturers do not always
have insights into solutions from other sectors.
Today's process technology is developing
through mega trends such as Smart
Factories, digitisation, and modular fabrication.
The trends presented by ystral at the
exhibition will provide visitors with ideas for
solutions of which they might not be aware
of - offering unique insights and prompting
new ways of improving their manufacturing
processes.
Some of the process engineering
trends ystral will present at
ACHEMA include:
* Cleaning without agents
* Clean production processes without biocides
or preservatives
* Cold chemistry
* Possibilities of process intensification
* Realisation of intensive processes outside
the tank
* Development from co-grind to slurry
manufacturing
* Moving from batch to inline processes
At the exhibition booth in hall 12, stand
C68, ystral will show how, within the context
of these trends, changing process
requirements can be dealt with using innovative
mixing and dispersion technologies.
The company will present the inline powder
wetting and dispersing machine YSTRAL
Conti-TDS, the YSTRAL Jetstream Mixer, and
other ystral technologies. Furthermore, the
mixing and dispersion technology specialist
will introduce the newly developed powder
dispersing system YSTRAL BATT-TDS, which
reduces the production time of lithiumion-electrode
slurries in battery manufacturing
from two- to six hours, to just a few
minutes.
Visit ystral in hall 12, booth C68 at
Achema 2022 from 22 till 26 August and improve
your process! Free tickets and more

Flow Measurement of H2, O2, and Gaseous H2O
Flexible Industrial Measurement Technology for a Changing World
O
ver the past three decades, non-invasive
flow measurement with clamp-on
ultrasonic technology has evolved from
a true outsider technology to an outsider
measuring technology only in a technical
sense. FLEXIM's ultrasonic FLUXUS
flowmeters measure from the safe side: the
outside of the pipe. The practical advantages
are obvious: no wear and tear by the
medium flowing inside the pipe, no risk of
leakage, no pressure loss and, above all,
unlimited plant availability.
As the technology leader in the field of
clamp-on ultrasonic measurement, FLEXIM
continuously pushes the boundaries and
extends its range of applications. Almost
twenty years ago, FLEXIM was successful
in transferring clamp-on ultrasonic technology
to the non-invasive flow measurement
of gases. Since then, FLUXUS flowmeters
have been used to measure almost any gas,
from compressed air in automotive factories
and hydrochloric acid in chemical plants to
pure oxygen in hospitals. As non-invasive
flow measurement is notably the method of
choice when the flowing media is dangerous,
the entire value chain of natural gas is
a prominent application field for FLEXIM's
66
gas flowmeters. FLUXUS measures
natural gas even when it is liquid.
With FLUXUS Cryo, FLEXIM developed
an ultrasonic system for the
non-invasive flow measurement of
LNG. FLEXIM also has the technology
to measure hydrogen. Therefore,
FLEXIM is not just hydrogen-ready,
but experienced and well prepared
for the energy transition.
Non-invasive steam flow
measurement
FLEXIM offers two complementary
non-invasive measuring solutions
for low-temperature as well as for
high-temperature steam flow measurement.
The FLUXUS ST-LT series allows for volume
and mass flow measurement of saturated
and superheated steam at temperatures
up to 180 °C. FLUXUS ST-LT works according
to the ultrasonic transit-time difference
principle. Due to its extraordinary measurement
dynamics and its high sensitivity
even to low flows, FLUXUS ST does not
require a reduction in pipe diameters in
order to achieve a minimum flow velocity. In
Non-invasive flow measurement of
350 °C hot steam on a DN600 line
conjunction with FLEXIM's patented hightemperature
transducer mounting device
WaveInjector and the use of correlation flow
measuring technology, FLUXUS ST HT extends
the application range of non-invasive
steam flow measurement up to 400 °C. With
the new and hazardous area certified portable
FLUXUS G608 ST-LT, FLEXIM offers a veritable
multi-tool: in addition to steam, the
measuring system can also measure liquids,
gases, compressed air and thermal energy.
