Humidity calibration in non-air gases at above-atmospheric pressures

Many laboratories can only perform humidity calibrations in air at atmospheric pressure. However, industrial humidity measurements may be at high pressures, or in other gases. For best validity, humidity calibrations should ideally be in the gas medium of use, because the performance of some hygrometers can depend on gas species and pressure. Calibration against the NPL multi-gas multi-pressure ...

UF/IFAS research finds ways to save water, strawberries and money during cold temps

Florida’s strawberry producers must protect their multimillion-dollar annual crop from freeze damage. Traditional methods involve constant spraying of water during a cold snap. Growers are looking for ways to use less water, yet produce the same amount of crop. New University of Florida research shows growers can keep using both their current sprinkler spacing and low pressure or enhanced ...

Water in Fuel Gas – 875 KF Gas Analyzer For Fully Automated Determination by Coulometric Karl Fischer Titration

Water is an unwanted contaminant in any kind of fuel gas as it lowers the calorific value and promotes corrosion. Hence, monitoring the water content is most critical, from the drying process of natural gas to any other point downstream. A proven solution to this challenge is the 875 KF Gas Analyzer combining precise sampling with the accuracy of coulometric Karl Fischer titration in a fully ...
