Measure, Monitor and Improve Energy Efficiency
Jim Cahill
A recent Top Quartile post, The Path to (Energy) Recovery: Reduce Waste to Boost the Bottom Line , shared a statistic from the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy : …the energy used by U.S. manufacturing plants costs the nation an additional $180 billion annually , while improving energy intensity by 20 percent or more is typically available. That could add up to savings of about $45 billion a year. …

Understanding Units of Gas Concentration
Rosemount Analytical
By Edward Naranjo, Marketing Director, Emerson Gas concentration is one of the most important determinants of a substance’s hazard potential. Flammability, toxicity, and oxygen deficiency are often determined by concentration. For combustible gas detectors, gas concentration is expressed as a volume fraction of combustible gas or vapor in air known as the lower explosive limit (LEL), while for toxic gas detectors,…
