• Optimal CO2 Metering Solution Critical To Enhanced Oil Recovery

  To combat production declines at aging oil wells, oil and gas companies turn to enhanced oil recovery to optimize output. Some of those methods are dependent on collecting CO2 from gas operations and holding it underground — also known as carbon capture and storage — until needed. The ability to accurately measure CO2 in these processes is critical.

• Mccrometer, Inc. Releases Redesigned Dial Faces

  McCrometer, Inc., a globally recognized flow meter manufacturer, recently announced the redesign of the dial faces that accompany its propeller meters. McCrometer’s McPropeller offers digital displays as well as analog (dial) displays as well, measuring flow in a variety of units.

• Long Term Performance Of V-Cone Flow Meters

  This paper presents the results of 12 V-Cone DP Flow meters tested over a period of 17 years. Service applications for the V-Cones included natural gas as well as coke oven gas measurement, a dirty aggressive fluid that is problematic over long period of time for most flow meters. All testing was conducted in air by a 3rd party calibration laboratory, CEESI Colorado. Results will be presented for each of the meters over the 17 year span. Conclusions and recommendations will be made to the long term performance and recalibration intervals for the V-Cone flow meter.

• Confronting The Campus Steam Conundrum

  Colleges and universities are working harder than ever to account for their resources, but getting a handle on steam production can be tricky. A growing number of schools are banking on one solution for better insight.

• 3 Hidden Traps Of Low Flow Cutoff

  Failure to capture meter readings at the low end of the production scale is a missed opportunity for steam system operators. Here’s why that is happening and what you can do to attack the problem.

• FPI Mag Meter Meets NSF/ANSI-61 And NSF/ANSI-372 To Assure The Highest Drinking Water Quality

  McCrometer’s FPI Mag® meter is now NSF/ANSI-61 and NSF/ANSI-372 certified for municipal drinking water applications. In the U.S. and around the globe, municipalities and other water authorities have confidence knowing this instrument meets or exceeds the highest standards in water measurement from source to tap.

• Battery-Powered Dura Mag Flow Meter Simplifies Flow Measurement

  Designed for ease of irrigation flow measurement, the new Dura Mag flow meter from McCrometer provides precise, reliable flow data for water management.

• 5 Keys On Reducing Non-Revenue Water

  Water loss is a constant concern for drinking water utilities. After all of the hard (and expensive) work it takes to get a purified product out of the plant, losing it to leaks and aging infrastructure before it reaches ratepayers can be problematic.

• 3 Keys To Flow Meters As Water Management Tools

  In an era when water scarcity, water quality and delivery costs are becoming urgent problems worldwide, the flow meter is more important than ever as a water management tool.    “You can’t manage what you don’t measure,” is a simple business truism, which summarizes the growing role of flow meters in many water process applications.

• West Virginia City Says It All Adds Up With The FPI Mag Flow Meter

  The city staff of Buckhannon, West Virginia, recently ran into a situation that didn’t add up. A flow meter at one of the city’s booster stations was indicating a flow rate higher than the capacity of the station’s pumps. The staff contacted the applications team at McCrometer about its flow meter accuracy problem.

• Next Generation Mag Meter

  Municipal and Industrial water and wastewater treatment systems present a challenging environment in which the accurate and reliable measurement of liquid flow is essential for cost-effective plant operation.

• 3 Tips To Optimize Cooling Water Management For Lower Plant Operating Costs The proper control and treatment of cooling water is essential for efficient, safe, and economical operations. Chemicals are fed to these systems that protect against fouling, corrosion, and microbiological contamination. The proper dosage of these key chemicals is determined by having accurate information on the system make-up and blowdown water.
