The second annual Heat Exchanger World Americas Conference & Expo is coming up on December 1st and 2nd, 2021, at the San Jacinto College’s LyondellBasell Center for Petrochemical, Energy & Technology (CPET) in Pasadena, TX, U.S.

Rangeability and stable control have always been an issue when it comes to controlling varying flow rates and pressures in gas pipelines. This is made even more difficult in FEEDGAS inlet for a Liquefaction facility, especially when gas is supplied from multiple sources held by different owners that have different pressures and flowrates.

Piping design is an integrated process which combines designers, engineers, and end users. Covering a lot of ground, a piping designer needs to not only be knowledgeable, but creative and approachable. Charles Johnson, Senior Piping Designer for Evergreen Engineering, spoke with Valve World Americas to explain how he became what he calls a piping design artist, and why this is an integral role in the industry.

Business opportunities are emerging for valves suppliers because more customers are committing to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions operations. Clients’ efforts to reduce their emission footprints have added a new layer to the complexity of the valves market, stimulating the development of low-emission, zero-carbon products and technologies.

One of the first scientific realities that we learn as children is that all living creatures, including human beings, require oxygen to survive. We receive the oxygen our bodies need from the air around us, but our atmosphere is made up of mostly nitrogen, and only a little more than 20% oxygen. Additionally, living creatures are not the only ones who need oxygen to survive; so do flames.

Valve World Americas is ongoing today, at the George R. Brown Convention Centre, in Houston, TX. Are you already there? Plenty of valve experts have already connected during the event.

It might be difficult to believe, but there used to be a joke about a geologist reporting back over a field trip and saying: ‘I have good and bad news; the bad news is that we did not find any oil; the good news is that we did not find any gas either.’

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, natural gas reforming or Steam Methane Reforming (‘SMR’) currently accounts for

Recently, the high temperature & high pressure floating ball valve prototype developed by Neway Valve was witnessed by Lloyd's Register, and successfully passed the high temperature cycle test of 550℃ and 650℃.

Fisher, an Emerson company, has released its new range of Vee-Ball rotary control valves with the V150, V200 and V300 models.
