Best hydrogen sulfide gas detector
Hydrogen sulfide is a potentially deadly toxic gas produced by the breakdown of manure from pig, pig and cattle farms. A hydrogen sulfide gas detector is an important tool for monitoring the hydrogen sulfide content of a cesspool. Such detectors are essential to saving human and animal lives, as demonstrated by past tragedies of deaths from hydrogen sulfide poisoning. They are also common in many ...

PID Calibration for Oil & Gas Industries
Photoionization detectors (PIDs) are crucial equipment for those working with gas and oil as they help to measure a range of gases, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Because of how frequently PIDs are used and the importance of their accountability and reliability, PID calibration for the oil and gas industries need to be carefully implemented. In this article, we will look at PID ...

Mobile Degassing Unit
In the Mobile Degassing Unit of aluminum alloy, an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon is blown in, the aluminum liquid is turned over, the impurities are floated, and the hydrogen is greatly dehydrogenated, which can greatly improve the quality of the aluminum alloy. With the Mobile Degassing Unit, the bubbles have no dead ends, small and many. Rolling up and down, uniform aluminum liquid ...

Monitoring Oxygen and Carbon Monoxide in Dive Tanks
I'm convinced of the benefit of analyzing tanks for O2 percentage and the presence of CO (carbon monoxide). On my last dive trip I found that my Cootwo was giving really wonky readings (O2 randomly off by 5~10%, despite having a good sensor, recent calibration, etc) and the CO sensor was due for replacement/calibration. With Divenav out of business (or at least, out of the business of hardware ...

Optimal CO2 metering solution critical to enhanced oil recovery
As oil wells age, the internal pressure gradually drops while fluid levels tend to move away from the production zone. To combat the resulting production declines at those wells, oil and gas companies turn to enhanced oil recovery to optimize output. Carbon dioxide (CO2) injection and water alternating gas injection, also known as WAG, are unconventional enhanced oil recovery processes that ...

Reduce energy costs with a compressed air flow meter
Consider the following situation. You find out you have been using way too much water at home. You discover a leaking gasket and there is water all over your basement. What is your course of action? Of course, it is to fix the leak right away. But what if this happened at your plant? And instead of water, we are dealing with compressed air? Probably nothing, because compressed air is ...

HAZWOPER – Different, Not Less
When we think of a hazardous material event, we often think of firefighters and technicians rushing in with large plastic space-like suits to stop the leak and save the day. These first responders definitely play a large role in the mitigation of these emergency situations, but sometimes we tend to forget about the second – due responders who pick up the pieces and begin recovery. ...

Accuracy In Adversity
It is a fact of the industry that oil and gas companies are required, by various rules and regulations, to routinely perform gas sampling to establish gas composition, flow rates and gas properties. In order to comply with regulations, gas sampling tools must achieve high accuracy at low flows with varying gas compositions, temperatures and pressures. For many technologies, these requirements can ...

ERV & Heat Recovery Ventilation Systems Reviews
Here offered is the erv system reviews. Simply, HRVs and ERVs provide a balanced, controlled, and measured quantity of fresh air into the residence to cycle out pollutants, while additionally shooting and replacing the heat—or smart energy—from the exhausted indoor airflow with the incoming air. This trade preheats incoming air in the winter, or “pre-cools” it (if to a ...
