With new breweries and brewpubs popping up by the day, the competition to find quality brewers is fierce. One of the first things to do was to do some research with experienced brewers. “I knew going into this project quality beer was going to be key, as obvious as it sounds,” “I didn’t want an…
Biogas is produced when organic matter breaks down in the absence of oxygen.
It’s produced by anaerobic digestion by bacteria or fermentation of biodegradable materials such as manure, sewage, municipal waste, or plant material.
Like solar and wind power, it’s a renewable energy source.
It can be used as a fuel in a variety of applications; when cleaned and compressed, it can power motor vehicles.
An example for monitoring biogas processes
The safety regulations stipulated by professional farming associations require, amongst other things, that any sight glass fittings and electrically operated processes for the production of biogas are gas-tight and explosion-protected.
You can benefit from Papenmeier’s long experience in the manufacture of electrical plant that meets the highest demands on Ex protection. Because of the safety factor,the popular VISULEX Ex-camera system, part of the Lumiglas range, is ideal for use in this sector.
The remotely operated camera transmits data for visual control or analysis from any desired position. Remote-controlled disc wipers with a spray nozzle ensure an unhindered view.
The combination consists of:

A Reminder About the Benefits Of LEDs LEDs can successfully replace metal halide, high-pressure sodium, HID, and outdated fluorescent lamps. Because LEDs don’t need ballasts, they can minimize fire hazards and the environmental impacts and disposal costs for industrial facilities. It’s important to remember that initial lighting fixture costs are only part of the total…
The lighting used to illuminate the interiors of process vessels has been dominated by halogen luminaires for decades. In recent years brighter LED luminaires have emerged that are causing process experts to re-assess their vessel lighting needs. What is the ideal level of brightness? What is the relationship between brightness and the size of the…
Sight glasses and sight flow indicators are used widely in corrosive applications such as oil and gas where control and remote monitoring of operations in explosion-hazardous and non-explosive environments is critical. Lumiglas® sight glasses can handle the higher temperatures and higher pressures of corrosive applications. For inspection and remote observation of process operations, particularly in a hazardous…
Flow indicators and sight glasses provide the ability to observe and validate cleaning and draining in the food and beverage industry where industrial processing is required. Allowing operators to observe processes inside of vessels and pipes typically used in a brewery and cheese making equipment, fermentation tanks and processing vessels, pasteurization equipment, formulation equipment where observation, safety…
Lumiglas® – Process Lighting and Visual Control Systems Lumiglas – the observation of process operations taking place inside pressure and vacuum vessels, tanks, reactors, silo units, filters and other plant demands perfect illumination and unhindered visual check. that is what lumiglas offers. Lumiglas stands for sight and light ; for ideal visual control. These inspections are…
