The culture of innovation at Endress+Hauser goes far beyond research and development.
Beginnings are always hard – and so it is with the circular economy. Michael Sinz, director of strategic business, explains how it can become a reality for the process industry and how Endress+Hauser is making headway with its implementation.
It’s time to rethink our linear economic model: the consequences of all that taking, making and wasting are getting harder and harder to ignore. But as yet we seem to lack that initial impetus, that spark, needed to set the circular economy in motion.
How much oil is in the storage tank? In international trade, only calibrated measuring devices can deliver an acceptable answer. Calibration can be done laboriously on site or directly at the factory, as Endress+Hauser does. And this is all thanks to a unique calibration rig.
Procurement offers great leverage towards achieving climate neutrality. That’s because with high production volumes – of instrument housings, for example – even small material savings can make a difference.
ChatGPT opened the floodgates: artificial intelligence has gone mainstream. AI holds huge potential, not least for the process industry. Yet how much of this is hype, and how much could become a reality?
There is more than one kind of artificial intelligence – and it’s nothing new. Artificial intelligence stands to improve our everyday existence like few technologies have done before. Yet we are seldom aware that it is already shaping our lives.
Utilities are essential to the operation of industrial plants. The problem is that lots of process energy vanishes unused. To do something about that, you need to make the right adjustments – using the right measuring technology.
To save energy, you first need to know how much is being consumed. Which is exactly what the EngyCal RH33 BTU meter has been measuring for years. Given the rising cost of energy and stricter emissions requirements, this evergreen instrument is gaining even stronger appeal.
