Chemical Engineering July 2022 - 47

Show Preview
22 - 26 August 2022 | Frankfurt am Main, Germany
PLEASE VISIT US IN HALL 9.0 STAND B1
A
chema (www.achema.de), the
global forum for the chemical
engineering and process
industries presented by
Dechema e.V. (www.dechema.de), is
taking place August 22-26 in Frankfurt
am Main, Germany. This year's
event will feature over 2,000 exhibitors
spread out over 12 exhibit halls and
a comprehensive technical program.
Focal topics for the event include:
product and process safety; digitalized
laboratories; and modular and connected
production. This year, several
co-located events will expand the
breadth of topics at Achema, including:
Climate-Neutral Chemical Industry
2050; Automation in Dialog; International
Powder and Nanotechnology
Forum (IPNF) 2022; and the Information
Platform for Plant Engineers. This
show preview covers a small selection
of the products and services that will
be showcased by Achema's exhibitors.
Heat slurries without
plugging or fouling
The Non-Obstructing Heater (NOH;
photo) features a straight-tube design
that allows for unrestricted flow, prevents
pressure drop, and heats slurries
without plugging or fouling. In addition,
the NOH's rugged design and construction
materials enable it to handle
viscous slurries, particulate-filled products,
abrasive or corrosive substances
and stringy products, along with inline
water-heating abilities. Compared to
other heating systems, the NOH utilizes
a smaller footprint, with direct installation
into the existing system piping
and does not require special tools
for maintenance. Ranging in size from
2 to 12 in. (DN50 to DN300), volumetric
flow capabilities reach up to 6,900
gal/min (1,567.2 m3/h). Hall 6.1 Booth

Processing machines for soft-gel
encapsulation and drying
Demand for vegetable-based soft-gel
products is rapidly increasing, and in
response, this company has developed
special machinery for vegetable
soft-gel processing. The PNF Softgel
SE-100 Series soft-gel encapsulation
machine (photo) is designed with advanced
functions, such as a servocontrol
filling system, gelatin level
sensor and easy cleaning and maintenance.
Additionally, the PnF Softgel
Model CTD-10 drying conveyor is a
new system that makes it possible to
produce high-quality vegetable soft
gels by removing more than 5% of
the humidity from the soft-gel media
before transferring to the dry tumbler.

Skid-mounted plants
for continuous processes
This company offers skid-mounted
systems (photo) comprising an assembly
of interconnected modulebased
units. Depending on the process
needs of the plant skid, a variety
of pre-engineered modules can be
selected and combined with application-specific
modules to deliver high
process performance from the final
turnkey plant system. This approach
reduces investment costs and enables
fast project realization. A particular use
case for these modular skids is a continuously
operating modular API and
intermediates synthesis plant that was
recently put into operation to realize
the benefits of process intensification.
It consisted of two feed modules with
two dosing lines each designed for
a flowrate between 15 and 250 mL/
min at 20 bars. The plant can operate
with liquids, gases and suspensions
as feedstreams, and it can be used
with various continuous-reactor technologies
while operating automatically.

Full-service units for sterilizing
laboratory wastewater
From the disposal of samples to the
washdown of equipment, the sterilization
of liquid waste is crucial in laboratories.
The Effluent Decontamination
System (EDS; photo) is a miniaturized
wastewater-sterilizing plant for laboratory
use. Using penetrative heat, the
