A flexible, space-efficient solution that allows plants to take advantage of the Orion 2230XP intelligent flow monitoring and IC Controls’ purpose-built touchscreen interface for sample sequencing operation. The Thermo Scientific Orion 2030 silica analyzer (Initially released as the Orion 2030 silica monitor from Thermo Electron Corporation) was released in the early 2000’s. It [...]
The purpose of this article is to provide guidance on how to ensure optimum performance from your IC Controls Dissolved Oxygen sensors. This document outlines processes and provides recommendations for operation, calibration, cleaning and sensor replacement. Each of the sections below include recommendations on how and at what frequency to perform these tasks. This [...]
Whether in a steam-electric power plant, chemical plant or any other process in which liquid analysis occurs, the number and location of measurement points for process control tends to be fixed. Portable analyzers offer the flexibility of being able to measure at virtually any location for purposes of troubleshooting, benchmarking or process improvement.Inevitably, industrial [...]
Low Level Residual Chlorine Analysis for Power Plant Effluent Comparing the EPA approved Iodometric Electrode Technique to Other Measurement Methods
Today’s process world is a challenging one. Plant managers, metrology labs, and maintenance workers are constantly asked to improve their process efficiencies and output while at the same time seeing their budgets, manpower, and workforce reduced. Fortunately, companies that serve the process industry have used these imposed limitations as an impetus to improve [...]
Goal - This application note explores the topic of suspended solids and total suspended solids, including how and why they are measured in water and wastewater treatment processes. ... ...
Importance of pH Measurement Hydrometallurgical concentrating and refining applications require pH/ORP sensors to withstand aggressive environments while maintaining accurate measurement. Processes such as cyanide leaching (e.g gold) and solvent extraction (e.g. copper, nickel, zinc) require pH and ORP to be at very specific values to yield the desired chemical species. pH may need [...]
Abstract - This white paper explores how unique design features and iodide/triiodide ion pair reference chemistry help Thermo ScientificTM OrionTM ROSSTM pH electrodes deliver fast, stable and accurate measurements. When pH measurement performance counts - A pH measurement, along with temperature and weight, is one of the three most common measurements performed in laboratories. Reliable and accurate [...]
Instrumentation and Operational Considerations for On-Line pH Measurement in Samples Below 10 μS/cm Conductivity Ordinarily pH measurements are made in water with 1,000 to 10,000 μS/cm conductivity. The conductivity comes from dissolved solids which are typically salts but also acid or base. These dissolved substances are in the solution in ion form which [...]
Case Study – High purity Thermo Scientific Orion ROSS pH electrode provides reliable measurements and cost savings in steam cycle monitoring and control applications The Right pH Electrode for Steam Cycle Monitoring and Control A steam generating plant requires very clean water and carefully controlled chemistry for proper operation of a boiler that runs [...]
