Know when to turn to centrifugal separation

Article Abstract:

Selecting between filtration, gravity or centrigufal sedimenation as the system for separating liquids and solids for a particular chemical facility depends on numerous variables. One of the basic differences between filtration and sedimentation is media dependence, which may result in increased waste and loss of equipment availability due to maintenance. Centrifugal devices may be better than their filtration counterparts since they are self-cleaning; have consistent output; offer consistent output; requires less maintenance and have lower operating costs.

Intermetallic filter removes sulfur from crude oil

Article Abstract:

An environmental engineering professor at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles is developing a filter that can efficiently remove sulfur and other contaminants from crude oil. The filter's key component is a fine intermetallic crystalline powder, which is produced by heating a mixture of two metals to nearly 1,000 degrees F. The filter is said to remove as much as 60% of the sulfur in a single pass.
