In its gaseous form, Propane has numerous applications. Propane is usually used for residential heating, cooking, and powering small appliances. Industrially, propane can be separated from oilfield gas and cracking gas. It can be used as a raw material for the production of ethylene and propylene or as a solvent in the oil refining industry. … Read more

Soy sauce is probably man’s oldest prepared seasoning. Soy sauce is a dark-brown liquid extracted from the fermented mixture of soybeans and wheat. Due to its salty taste and sharp flavor, it is served as an all-purpose seasoning for thousands of years. Due to the attributes such as high viscosity, salt content, and potential for … Read more

There are several types of flow meters designed to measure the flow of dirty water fluids, and they work in slightly different ways. The electromagnetic flow meter solution is best for measuring the flow of dirty water such as mining slurries, wastewater plants, etc. Unlike standard water meters used for clean water applications, these specialized … Read more

Drinking water is possibly the most widely acknowledged and regulated water type measured by flow meters. The water is typically treated in a municipal water treatment plant, and from there, it flows through a network of pipes to homes, businesses, and other set-ups. Flow meters in drinking water systems ensure that the correct amount of … Read more

A water flow meter can measure, monitor, and aid to control the flow of water through a pipe, hose, or other manner of instrumentation. It can provide a constant reading of the water flow rate. Measuring saltwater flow is a relatively complex process due to the corrosive nature, high salinity, and large temperature variations of … Read more

Raw water is water that has not undergone any treatment. It is found in natural sources and reserves, in surface and groundwater bodies. Likewise, fresh water is also found naturally on the Earth’s surface, such as ice, wetlands, ponds, lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater. It usually has a low concentration of dissolved salts and solids. … Read more

One of the bear-sized challenges in flow measurement is electromagnetic interference (EMI), which can misrepresent readings, compromise accuracy, and lead to costly functional inefficiencies. To extenuate this issue, engineers have developed electromagnetic interference resistant flow meters—specialized instruments designed to operate reliably even in environments with high EMI. This article explores the causes of EMI, the … Read more

Among the several types of flow meters available in the market, helical flow meters attract attention due to their precision and ability to handle high-viscosity fluids and challenging flow conditions. Helical flow meters are extremely accurate measuring instruments to determine the volume flow rate of liquids in closed pipelines. This article explores the working principles, … Read more

Bitumen is a byproduct of crude oil. The quality of bitumen and ease of production depends on the source and type of crude oil from which it is derived. On the other hand, Asphalt is a composite material with two primary ingredients: aggregates and bitumen. Bitumen and asphalt are hypercritical materials in construction, road paving, … Read more

In practice, most machines involve rotary motion as well as linear motion. Rotary motion is defined by stable operation and low impact on mechanical equipment. Therefore, it is very important for the smooth operation of the instrument. Rotary flow meters have been in use for a long time. Over time, they have become the preferred … Read more
