Highest electrical efficiency from waste: Lahti Energia, Lahti Finland

Lahti Energy’s Kymijärvi II power plant, the world’s first eco-gas fueled power plant, was inaugurated in 2012. The power plant runs on SRF that is gasified, cooled and cleaned before combustion and produces 50 MW of electricity and 90 MW of district heat for the city of Lahti in Finland.

Nelprof™ helps select a pump for optimum control valve pressure drop

Our guest writer Jon F. Monsen shows how an analysis using our control valve sizing and selection software’s unique ability to graph the installed gain of a control valve can be helpful in selecting the optimum pump for a balance of good controllability and minimum energy use.

Reduce that process gas overpressure – and do it safely

Does your oil & gas processing facility include risk scenarios involving overheating due to fire, exothermic or runaway process reactions? Are you concerned that your process vessel metal temperatures can reach a level where stress ruptur can occur? Do you need more risk reduction than what a pressure relief valve can provide to depressurize your process vessel? If the answer is yes, please read further.

Understandable valve diagnostics

Digital valve controllers can provide diagnostic data about the valve assembly. But how many users can correctly interpret the data they get?

Optimizing valve maintenance using condition analysis

Typically in shutdown situation the amount of valves to be maintained is limited in order to meet maintenance budget. Valve maintenance can be optimized by using condition analysis to focus maintenance actions to only devices needing attention.

Fugitive emission control creates site efficiency

From end-user point of view, perhaps even more important than the selected standards and simple compliance with ever-tightening environmental regulations, are the other benefits provided by the low fugitive emission valve designs.

Creating greater impact together with companies

Earlier in 2020, Valmet started to support our project in Dungarpur, India. The project aims to develop the circumstances of poor and vulnerable children through increasing access to government social protection programmes and strengthening parenting skills to promote better care and nurture of children.

The new normal – the opportunities of digitalization in industrial maintenance

Digitalization and the Industrial Internet are expanding in industrial operations. There are already plenty of possibilities to benefit from this development in industrial maintenance - both on site and for learning purposes. The "new normal" is here to stay, strengthened by the Covid-19 pandemic that calls for increasing remote services.
