Production control of solder powder - Case Study
In the past most industrial solder pastes were made using oxidised powder produced by simple air atomisation. Pressure to improve the control of the size range of solder pastes, and to avoid the use of corrosive halide fluxes, has led to a demand for lower oxide levels. In addition increased use of automated oxygen analyzer application systems has led to much more critical specifications for ...

Nitrogen Generators: Where are they Installed and How to Stay Safe?
Used in a range of industries, nitrogen generators ensure a steady supply of 99.5% pure, commercially sterile nitrogen from a compressed air storage tank. From an industrial standpoint, nitrogen generators are seen as preferable to cylinders of nitrogen as they are more reliable, more compact, and easy to use and install. However, these generators are not without risk. Learn about nitrogen ...

What are Oxygen Deficiency Monitors?
What is an Oxygen Deficient Environment? The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) defines an environment in which oxygen levels fall below 19.5 percent asan oxygen deficient atmosphere, which should be treated as immediately dangerous to health or life. When there is not enough oxygen in the air, persons within the affected area may become disoriented, lose consciousness, or even ...

Cubic Instruments In-Situ Laser Process Gas Analyzer for Coke Ovens Safety Monitoring
Coke is an essential material in steel production, serving as a source of thermal energy. It is manufactured from heating coal in the oxygen-deficient environment of the coke ovens. During this process, significant amounts of syngas including H2, CH4, CO etc is generated and the combustible component accounts for about 90%. The lower explosive limit of syngas, the higher the risk of an explosion ...

Nitrogen Tank or Cryogenic Dewar? Not Sure Where they are Installed? Here`s the List!
Liquid nitrogen is used in a broad range of industries, from steelmaking and pharmaceutical to health care and ceramics. The inert gas is also used in laboratories, breweries, fine cooking, and more. Wherever liquid nitrogen is used, it must be stored securely so as not to mingle with air. Learn why nitrogen must be so carefully contained and where and how N2 gas is stored. Bulk Nitrogen Tank ...

Poor Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) at Work
Is Indoor Air Quality worse than OutDoor Air Quality? Complaints of poor air quality at work are actually quite common. Even more distressing is that newer, more energy efficient buildings may be worse than the old leaky, drafty ones. Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) inside just about any building whether office, hospital, factory or warehouse is generally worse than outdoors says the US Environmental ...

3D Metal Printing: Oxygen Analyzers Are Essential
Metal 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, provides for the creation of complex metal parts by layering metal powders and, depending on the application, selectively sintering, fusing, or melting the powders using a high-powered laser or electron beam. This process offers numerous advantages over traditional manufacturing methods, including reduced waste, increased design freedom to ...

What Are Hot Melt Adhesives? Why Are They Used and What Is the Importance Of Nitrogen Gas?
Hot Melt Adhesives and Available Types Used in Industrial Manufacturing Industrial hot melt adhesives are polymer-based thermoplastic resins that, when melted, are used to bond materials together. Hot melt adhesives are comprised of one or more base polymers combined with tackifiers (which provide stickiness to the adhesive), plasticizers (to provide greater flexibility), and antioxidants (for ...

EPA finalizes boiler NESHAP
EPA published the final National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for industrial, commercial, and institutional boilers and process heaters at both major and area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emissions. EPA developed separate rules for units at major sources of HAP emissions (greater than 10 tons per year [tpy] of any single HAP and/or greater than 25 tpy of ...

The Benefits of Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide for Food Processing
The Benefits of Nitrogen and Carbon Dioxide for Food Processing A blend of gases -- carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen -- help preserve packaged food by reducing the amount of oxygen inside the sealed package. Gas flushing or Modified Atmosphere Packaging, as the process is called, also reduces the amount of processing that food must undergo. This preserves the quality and nutrient content of ...

Continuous measurement of Process oxygen for Claus sulfur recovery unit (sru) start-ups and shut-downs case study
During start-up and shut-down, any time a sulfur recovery unit (SRU) transitions from ambient temperature through fuel gas warm up to the introduction of acid gas, measurement of 02 stoichiometry is critical. Historically, operators have manually taken samples using a portable electrochemical type Os analyzer. While giving more or less satisfactory results, the requirement for more stringent ...

ppb Dissolved oxygen measurement
Dissolved oxygen (D.O.) measurement is one indicator of water quality because oxygen is a common element contributing to corrosion reactions. This corrosion reaction provides the need for low level D.O. control since dissolved oxygen is responsible for costly replacement of piping and equipment by corrosive attack on metah. what is Dissolved Oxygen? Dissolved axygan (D.O.f is the amount of ...
