Sewage sludge is a product of wastewater treatment. The drier it is, the better it can be utilised downstream. The key basic treatment of the sludge takes place in the thickeners. Their operational safety, in turn, depends on reliable force measurement in the drive …

Level measurement for demanding biorefinery applications
Ansgar Baule | ApplicationsThe production of biofuels is subject to demanding process conditions. These therefore also pose major challenges for level measurement in biorefineries. The instruments used in the core processes, depending on where they are used, must operate in hydrogen-containing …
CO2 supply using IIoT for continuous dispensing
Jing Lyu | ApplicationsWhether beer, soft drinks or mineral water: CO 2 makes drinks bubble out of the taps. The industrial gas filled in cylinders provides the necessary pressure on the line and also ensures effervescence. The “fuel” is therefore essential for smooth dispensing in …
Biofuels and e-fuels as a boost for many engines
Ansgar Baule | ApplicationsBiofuels and e-fuels are important building blocks in the global quest for a sustainable energy future. They are renewable and also promising alternatives to fossil fuels, as they reduce CO 2 emissions by up to 95 percent in comparison. WIKA has been supporting …
“Green” ammonia drives decarbonisation forward
Lukas Rothermich | Applications“Green” ammonia is an ideal energy carrier. Being free of carbon, it offers a highly interesting potential for the future. As a typical building block of the “power-to-X” principle, “green” ammonia contributes to driving decarbonisation – in particular as …
