Control Amplified: The process automation podcast

Coriolis technology tackling green hydrogen extremes

Green hydrogen can decarbonize applications where renewable electrons simply can't go, but does bring with it some challenges, notably the very high pressures and low temperatures needed to contain it. To talk more about the challenges posed and opportunities presented by green hydrogen in transportation applications, Keith Larson is joined by Genny Fultz, product manager, Marc Buttler, director of application innovation, both with Emerson.

Ultrasonic technology takes on hydrogen, natural gas blends

While green hydrogen promises to play a significant role in the decarbonization of our energy infrastructure, it won't be as simple as throwing a switch. One key avenue for it is to leverage the existing natural gas distribution networks to deliver a blend of green hydrogen and traditional natural gas to the homes, buildings and industries that currently rely on natural gas in full. In this episode, Keith Larson, publisher of Control magazine and ControlGlobal.com, and Duane Harris, market product manager for Sick, discuss some of the unique challenges posed by blending hydrogen into our natural gas systems and some of the technologies can address these challenges in a cost-effective way.

Asset-specific insights to transform service workflows

The digital transformation of industry doesn't only apply to the real time control and optimization of industrial processes. It also applies the documentation, the supply chains, and context-specific workflows that support industrial assets across their entire lifespan. To better understand how, when it comes to industrial automation, digital technology at our disposal can make online retailers estimated delivery times a little more than entry stakes, Keith Larson is  joined by Brian Fretschel, director of digital customer experience for Emerson.

How instrumentation is transforming water/wastewater operations

Industry is among the largest consumers of fresh water, and many global manufacturers have identified water scarcity as a significant risk factor to continuing operations. To answer this challenge operators of both municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment systems are in the midst of their own transformations. To discuss the ongoing transformation of our water/wastewater infrastructure Keith Larson speaks with Endress+Hauser’s Nick Hanson, national industry manager for water and wastewater.
