Energy companies around the world, including in the U.S., have converted some of their petroleum refineries to produce renewable diesel instead. Others are planning to do so. Temperature monitoring of catalyst beds, using multipoint thermocouple assemblies, plays a key …
From cooking the pulp to drying the final product, paper production is heat-intensive. Thermocouples, RTDs, dial thermometers, thermowells, digital transmitters, and more help ensure the safety and efficiency of many applications in pulp and paper plants. This …
To minimize coking and maximize the conversion rate in a steam cracker, olefin producers need to closely monitor the furnace’s coil outlet temperature (COT). Various types of sensors measure this key parameter . WIKA USA tested the common sensors designs to evaluate …
At the 2025 AIChE (American Institute of Chemical Engineers) Spring Meeting, Alina Green presented WIKA's unique R&D evaluation of critical ethylene steam cracker coil outlet temperature (COT) sensor designs and installation best practices. The following is …
A network of robust pressure sensors, temperature sensors, flow sensors, and liquid level sensors control and optimize the performance of coolant distribution units – essential equipment in data centers. A typical data center has thousands of servers, and …
