Running over 1,700 kilometres from the Mediterranean Ceyhan terminal through 3 countries to the Caspian Sea the new BTC (Baku-Tibilisi-Ceyhan) crude oil pipeline presented some new technical challenges for electro-hydraulic actuator specialist Midland-ACS.
Thermal Energy International Inc., which recently acquired the Bristol based steam trap manufacturer GEM Ltd, is launching its highly acclaimed FLU-ACE technology to the UK and European market. Greatly improving the fuel efficiency of boiler operations, FLU-ACE provides a significant return on investment, and reduces environmental emissions. 
One of the challenges facing plant instrumentation engineers today is the effective and reliable monitoring of thrust bearing wear in critical pump applications. Typically pumps of this type are in continuous use and operational downtime is normally only permitted during planned outages. Predicting the wear and hence requirement to replace the thrust pads, is essential to fit in with this regime..jpg "The OG-Cube photoelectric")

Eliminating areas which might increase the potential for bacteria growth such as traps and crevices is an important design requirement for control valves used in aseptic applications, such as food processing and pharmaceutical production. Control valves which have smooth, cavity-free internals also helps to promote effective CIP and SIP (Clean or Sterilised in Place) and also aids self-draining.
