4 reasons why radar level sensors are superior to ultrasonic level technology: Radar and ultrasonic level measurements are both widely used in industrial and environmental applications for measuring the level of liquids and solids in lift stations, tanks, and open...
AI is changing drug discovery faster than most people expected. Commercial manufacturing is next. The organizations best positioned for that shift are the ones preparing now, not because they’re behind, but because the window to prepare thoughtfully is exactly when...
In dairy processing, even small measurement inaccuracies can quickly turn into product giveaway, quality risk, or compliance exposure. That’s why I’m always interested in seeing how customers apply the right instrumentation—not just to measure flow, but to improve...
The shift toward renewable fuels has introduced new operational realities for refiners. While biofuels offer clear sustainability benefits, their chemical composition and processing paths create corrosion mechanisms that differ in both severity and location from those seen in traditional petroleum refining.
Most major refinery incidents do not start with dramatic failures. They start with small, unremarkable changes that go unnoticed until it is too late.
New pressure relief valve (PRV) designs that protect LNG storage tanks, while providing cost savings through reduced fugitive emissions and increased capacity.
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated development of a vaccine in record time, the biopharmaceutical industry has seen significant change. Today, we know that faster development is possible, though it is still challenging. That has increased the...
The $1.5 Trillion Mining Boom newsletter highlights that the global mining industry has entered a new investment super-cycle with roughly $1.5 trillion in active mining projects worldwide, while operators and suppliers alike are navigating tighter timelines, more demanding operating conditions, and higher expectations for execution reliability.
In Part 1, we explored why digital strategies that sit above operations break down in regulated life sciences manufacturing. When analytics are disconnected from validated execution, insight loses the context required to support quality, compliance, and release...
The world has been harvesting wind as an energy source for a very long time. Don Quijote was “tilting at windmills” in the 17th century, long before anyone imagined a car, much less an electric one. We’ve come a long way from simply using the wind to grind grain and...
The common digital strategy playbook is: unify the data, layer on AI, and drive enterprise-level insight. The strategy sounds compelling in its simplicity. And for some industries and some use cases, it can work. But in regulated life sciences manufacturing, there is...
Why this matters now Renewable generation has moved from pilot projects to core capacity, and the shift to widely dispersed, remotely managed assets expands the cyber-attack surface for utilities. A resilient posture now hinges on redundant connectivity,...
