A white paper, High-Performance Control Valves for Water Addition Processes in Ore Mining, highlights the importance of valve selection in reducing operational and maintenance costs, waste, and water usage.
Valves, Actuators & Regulators
Recommended LNG Process Valves, Actuators and Regulators
Selecting the proper final elements—valves, regulators, actuators—helps to enhance equipment reliability and improve LNG and regasification plants safety—ultimately driving cost savings and operational excellence.
Enhancing Safety with Advanced Pressure Relief Valve Technologies
Pressure relief valves (PRVs) are crucial for preventing unsafe overpressure conditions in production processes. Historically unmonitored, these devices now benefit from advanced monitoring solutions that transform data into actionable insights. Explore how technologies like wireless acoustic transmitters and differential pressure transmitters are revolutionizing PRV monitoring, enhancing safety, and improving regulatory reporting.
Calculations for Sizing Control Valves
A Fisher brand technical paper on Valve Sizing Calculations shows the traditional and standardized calculations for properly sizing pressure regulators and valves.
Diagnosing Pressure Relief Valve Bellows Issues
Visit the Crosby J-Series Direct Spring Pressure Relief Valves page on Emerson.com for more information on dependable overpressure protection for safer and more sustainable operations.
When is a SIL Suitability Rating Required for Final Control Elements?
Riyaz Ali provides clarity on when to assign the SIL suitability for valves used in different scenarios (process control vs. safety shutdown) and establish criteria to assign SIL applicability for the “Final Element”.
Adopting New Tailings Standards for Mine Sustainability Podcast
In this podcast, Emerson’s Steve Brewer joins me to discuss some of the challenges in addressing these requirements and the role of valve technology in operating successfully.
Supercritical Control Valve Selection
Supercritical fluids are often found in carbon capture, ethylene, and hydrogen refining processes, and they pose unique equipment selection challenges, particularly for control valves. Our article on pages 45-50 in the February issue of Hydrocarbon Engineering, titled...
