We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Butterfly Valves",
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 Tyco Flow Control at first Bioethanol plant in UK from
Tyco Flow Controls, which we summarised at the time by saying "Tyco Flow Control will supply valve and control packages to the British Sugar bioethanol production plant at Wissington, using Foundation Fieldbus and AS-Interface communications in
hazardous areas".
The same day,
we featured the news release 'Green' G Series actuators use 30% less air from
Tomoe Valve: "Tomoe Valve, a global leader in the design and manufacturing of valves and process control systems, says the recently extended G Series actuator range uses 30% lower air consumption".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Rotork Controls
concerning its STW valve actuation upgrade
- take a look at Major valve actuation upgrade for STW
which says: "Rotork IQ and IQT range intelligent electric valve actuators have been installed as part of a multi-million pound upgrade and modernisation programme at one of the Severn Trent water treatment works".
Take a look also at the news release from Thorite, Latest process product catalogues from Thorite,
as well as Tomoe appoints distributor in Sweden from Tomoe Valve,
