Motorized Control Valves; Regulate or Manipulate the Flow of Gas, Oil, Water, or Steam

 

Motorized control valves are widely used in hydronic heating and cooling systems. They are used to control the flow of gases and fluids through an electric actuator. Motorized control valves find significant applications in various industry verticals, such as power generation, chemical manufacture, oil & gas industry, water & wastewater treatment, etc. The main benefit is that they provide a simplified method of regulating the production and flow of gas, thereby eliminating the guesswork and human error that may cause a gas flow to be too low or too high.

Motorized Control Valves

 

There are a variety of different industrial applications for control valves, including refrigeration control, chemical and biological control, nuclear applications, and oil and gas operations and applications. These valves are usually used for the transfer of the flow of a fluid or gas to another specific area. The operation of these valves is controlled by an in-built engine or control circuit, which is normally engineered by the manufacturer of the valves. They are generally made of either steel or titanium and are available in a variety of sizes and types.

Moreover, motorized control valves allow flow to be stopped, started, and adjusted to ensure that operation continues as scheduled. They control flow by either opening or closing an opening within a pipeline. Motorized control valves differ from normal valves in that they allow for a greater amount of control during operation. This can be very useful in situations where there is a need for precise control of the rate of Gage flow, temperature of a chemical being processed, or of the agitation of a water mass.

With the increasing utilization in various industry verticals, such as pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, healthcare, etc., the demand for motorized control valves is also increasing, mainly due to the use of smart valves that are integrated with smart sensors and embedded processors. For instance, in February 2020, Emerson (US) launched the ASC Series 158 gas valve and Series 159 motorized actuator to provide contractors, distributors, OEMs, and end-users a new combustion safety shutoff valve option that increases safety and reliability, and enhances both flow and control.

Increasing Initiatives to Digitalize the Healthcare Sector Is Expected To Boost Demand for Electronic Medical Records

Image
  An electronic medical record (EMR) is essentially a systematized collation of individual patient and family health information in an electronic format. This information is then shared across several health care locations. This will save time, money and provide patients with more comprehensive care. Increasing initiatives to digitalize the healthcare sector is expected to boost demand for EMR. For instance, in November 2019, Germany introduced Digital Supply Act to digitalize healthcare. Under the new legislation, doctors will be able to prescribe digital health apps to patients, which can be reimbursed by the country’s statutory health insurance. There are several advantages to using EMR. The main advantage is that you do not need to wait for the paper records to go through the paper processing before you can use them. Another advantage to electronic medical records is that they allow for greater privacy. Electronic health records allow only the doctor to see these rec

What are various pigmented lesions treatment available in market today?

Image
  Pigmented Lesion is a form of skin malady. It is the inflammation of a dermis layer with melanin; the latter producing and maintaining color in the skin. Pigmented lesions or plaques develop in various parts of the body mostly in areas like the palms, the soles of the feet, the ears, and even the genitalia. The pigmentation usually appears as darker spots on the affected area and fades gradually. Pigmentation problems can occur at any age. Pigmented lesion treatment involves the use of a specialized cream to provide the patient with relief from the effects of the sun and to reduce the pigmentation. Although this type of treatment can be performed on almost any area of the body, the most popular locations are those areas that are heavily exposed to the sun. Pigmented lesions treatment also used the treatment of patients who suffer from acne, even though this is not the main goal of this treatment. There are some advantages to laser treatment including less scarring and

Increase In Oil Production and Exploration Activities Is Creating a Need for Oilfield Chemicals

Image
  Chemicals used in oil and gas extraction operations are known as oilfield chemicals. Oilfield chemicals find applications in workover & completion, production chemicals, well stimulation, drilling fluids, enhanced oil recovery, and cementing. Oilfield chemicals are used to improve the efficiency and productivity of the petroleum refining and oil drilling process and to achieve optimum performance with effective recovery. Oilfield chemicals facilitate the maintenance of a well-operated oil field, reducing the cost of delays and stops during the drilling process.    Oilfield chemicals are used at various stages during the production of the oil and gas as drilling additives, corrosion inhibitors, cementing super plasticizers, demulsifiers and dispersants, and repair systems for cementing failures. Moreover, these chemicals are also used to explore natural resources. With the increasing number of exploration activities around the world, the demand for oilfield chemicals is increasi
