New Greenhouse Gas Standards

The D.C. District Court recently upheld the decision allowing EPA to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. This white paper provides you background on the decision, what it means for you, and how to keep your plant compliant. Catalytic Products International will continue to stay abreast of these sweeping changes and we’ll continue to keep you informed. As EPA gears up to begin regulation of ...

Follow toxic gas standards for a smoother project

Toxic gases, such as Hydrogen Sulfide and Sulfur Dioxide, can injure and kill quickly. Therefore, mitigation of these hazards must be fast and sure. The United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and other authorities take detection of these gases very seriously. The American National Standards Institute/ American Petroleum Institute (ANSI/API) and ISA industry standards ...

U.S. EPA`s Proposed Greenhouse Gas Standards for the Utility Industry - How Powerful Are They?

A major event in the Climate Change arena occurred on March 27, 2012 when, for the first time, U.S. EPA proposed Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources (NSPS) for emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2). The proposed standards were specific to new affected fossil fuel-fired electric utility generating units (EGUs) and were the direct result of two (2) settlement agreements proposed ...

Headspace gas analysis video

Why does headspace gas need to be measured? To check the continuity and quality of the gas supply to the packing machine, the efficiency of the flush/vacuum cycle and the integrity of the pack seal. To optimise gas usage and save costs. To meet customer headspace gas quality standards. To present quality data to auditors, food quality inspectors or as part of a quality process e.g. ...

How cities can lead the way toward a low-carbon future

Cities around the world currently account for two-thirds of global energy consumption. By 2050, some 70 percent of people will live in cities. If cities embark on a low-carbon development path today, global greenhouse gases could be 30 percent lower in 2050 than they are today. These are just a few of the insights highlighted in a recent infographic created by the World Bank. So, what does this ...

Opt for the easy way: Determining glycerol in biodiesel using ion chromatography

Current US and European standards stipulate gas chromatography to determine the glycerol content in biodiesel. However, this method is both tedious and rather expensive. Metrohm recommends ion chromatography (IC) as a simple, cost-efficient and highly accurate ...

EPA Moves Closer to GHG Control

EPA has put itself on the path toward greenhouse gas regulation, but in Congress, the courts, and the international community, the debate rages on. On Dec. 7, 2009, EPA moved one step closer to imposing the first ever set of enforceable greenhouse gas (GHG) standards on tailpipe emissions from vehicles, and a requirement that large power plants and industrial emitters install best available ...

Gas analysis implications of the new non-road mobile machinery (NRMM) regulation

On September 2014 the European Commission proposed a new regulation to harmonise across the EU the emissions limit values (ELV’s) from engines installed in Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM). This new regulation replaces a number of national laws and, with effect from 1 Jan 2017, repeals a complex directive including 15 annexes and amended 8 times since 1997. Implementation timeframe for ...

Adaptive locally constrained genetic algorithm for least-cost water distribution network design

This paper describes the development of an adaptive locally constrained genetic algorithm (ALCO-GA) and its application to the problem of least cost water distribution network design. Genetic algorithms have been used widely for the optimisation of both theoretical and real-world nonlinear optimisation problems, including water system design and maintenance problems. In this work we propose a ...

Multiphase pumps for energy-efficient water and wastewater treatment

Multiphase pumps are unique products with outstanding features compared to conventional centrifugal pumps. The approach consists of using the pumps not only for transport of liquids but also for partial gas supply and as dynamic mixer for gas enrichment. Therefore this novel pump conception barely has something in common with a standard pump. Even the mode of operation does no longer ...

ION Science PID Response Factors

PID Response Photoionization Detectors (PIDs) respond to a broad range of organic and a few inorganic gaseous and volatile chemicals (‘volatiles’). In order for PID to respond to a volatile, the photon energy of the lamp must be greater than its ionization energy (IE). ION Science PIDs are available with lamps emitting light of maximum energy of 10.0 eV, 10.6 eV, and 11.7 eV. This ...

Improvement of olfactometric measurement accuracy and repeatability by optimization of panel selection procedures

The EN 13725:2003, which standardizes the determination of odour concentration by dynamic olfactometry, fixes the limits for panel selection in terms of individual threshold towards a reference gas (n-butanol in nitrogen) and of standard deviation of the responses. Nonetheless, laboratories have some degrees of freedom in developing their own procedures for panel selection and evaluation. Most ...
