Cybersecurity Strategies for the Rise of Next-Gen Automation
Today’s most successful organizations are facing a wide variety of new challenges: a need for increased flexibility, a push toward more sustainable operations, a shrinking experienced workforce, and more. Meeting those challenges will require unlocking the next...
Cómo la automatización puede ayudar a los usuarios finales y a los fabricantes de dispositivos a ampliar la economía del hidrógeno limpio
Nos encontramos en un momento muy emocionante para el mercado mundial del combustible de hidrógeno. Una vez superada la fase de prototipo con pilas de combustible, electrolizadores (las unidades que separan el agua en moléculas de hidrógeno y oxígeno) y estaciones de servicio, la industria tiene alicientes para crecer. Centrándonos sólo en una parte de ese mercado, la pila de combustible, se demuestra la oportunidad: La tasa de crecimiento anual compuesto (TCAC) del mercado mundial de pilas de combustible de hidrógeno se prevé en un sólido 45,3% entre 2022 y 2029, con proyecciones de un valor de mercado que alcanzará los 17.880 millones de dólares en ese periodo.

Gain Asset Health Insights with Emerson’s Digital Valve Controller
Control and on-off valves carry out critical functions in process plants and facilities worldwide, so their performance and condition must be closely monitored. New digital valve controllers provide this functionality, along with other tasks, improving the operation and uptime of these valves. These controllers also enable optimization of maintenance activities by predicting failures well in advance, allowing for proactive instead of reactive actions.
State Based Control is Writing the Future of Modern Manufacturing
Modern process manufacturing organizations have to be more competitive than ever. No longer are these companies competing solely against similar businesses in their region or even world area. Today’s most profitable companies are global, and to compete, they must keep...
How Reliability Improves Sustainability
While high reliability clearly entails high availability, what is less obvious is that reliability also enhances sustainability. In this October 2023 issue of InTech, titled “Executive Corner: Reliability Through the Lens of Sustainability,” explains why.
An Alternative Solution to Bellows Failure with Balanced Diaphragm Technology
This article discusses a recently introduced PRV design that replaces bellows with a balanced diaphragm. This new balancing technology can be installed as an upgrade to standard bellows PRVs, and it extends backpressure limits while providing greater flow capacity than a similarly sized balanced bellows PRV.
How Automation Can Help End Users and Device Manufacturers Scale Up the Clean Hydrogen Economy
Hydrogen fuel technology has reached a stage where it is past the prototype phase, and the industry is now looking to scale up. The fuel cell market, for instance, is forecast to grow at a robust 45.3% compound annual growth rate between 2022 and 2029, with projections of a market value reaching $17.88 billion. However, the potential growth of the industry is not guaranteed. There is still much work to be done, including increasing fueling stations and reducing the cost of producing green hydrogen. To mitigate risks and help hydrogen technology mature, strong partnerships between innovators and automation experts are needed. Automation experts can help hydrogen OEMs and end-users scale up capacity to meet market demands, keep projects on time and in budget, monitor hydrogen application performance, and ensure safety in volatile environments. With the help of automation experts, the hydrogen market can scale up and make a significant contribution towards achieving ambitious climate goals.
Preparing for the Holistic Automation Future
In their recent article in Plant Engineering, Emerson’s Claudio Fayad and Erik Lindhjem share that selecting plant control and reliability technologies is no longer a matter of convenience. Rather, project teams have shifted focus to delivering increased value across...
