Membrane filtration as an alternative: part 1
Article Abstract:
Microfiltration membranes can be used for the total removal of particulate contaminants from a feed stream by separation based on retention of contaminants on a membrane surface. They are used primarily for removing particles and microbes since they have large pore sizes. On the other hand, ultrafiltration membranes can remove water-soluble organic materials and microbiological contaminants, including protozoa, bacteria and most viruses from water. They provide for a disinfected filtered product with no further need for post-treatment sterilization methods such as UV radiation, ozone treatment or chlorination.

Radar level gauge
Article Abstract:
Greenwood, IN-based Endress and Hauser Inc has developed a novel radar level gauge. Its new Micropilot M loop-powered radar level gauge employs frequencies of 6GHz and 26GHz to achieve high overall accuracy. The instrument is enhanced by algorithms which provide users with real information on radar gauge status regardless of operating conditions. The device's display also furnishes clear and simple text for set-up and status messages.
