We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Ammonia",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Processingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Inert ceramic balls for processing and refining from
Koch Knight, which we summarised at the time by saying "KryptoKnight inert ceramic balls are introduced by Koch Knight for catalyst beds in chemical processing, ethanol refining and oil, gas and petrochemical refining".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Gas turbine and compressors for QAFCO fertilisers from
GE Oil and Gas: "GE Oil and Gas will supply the Qatar Fertilizer Company with gas turbine and compressor technology on an expansion project that will result in one of the world's largest fertilizer plants".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Nordic Water Products
concerning its Gillingham sand filters for WW
- take a look at Sand bed filters help cater for growing water use
which says: "Gillingham in Dorset has responded to a growing population plus increased wastewater treatment standards by installing four Nordic Water Dynasand moving sand bed filters".
Take a look also at the news release from Thermo Fisher Scientific, New Orion high-performance ammonia ISE,
as well as On-line ammonia analysis in process and wastewater from Applikon Analytical,
and New large bore mechanical seal is non-contact from Crane EAA.
