Knife-disconnect Terminals in Process Technology

For a Good Connection between the Field Signal and Control Room

Process engineering systems feature many sensors and actuators that allow ongoing processes to be measured and controlled directly from the control room. During commissioning, maintenance, or system errors, the signals of these field devices must be quickly, easily, and locally accessible or entirely isolated from the control loop. New compact-design knife-disconnect terminals allow wiring in the tightest of spaces.

Liquid Assets: Custom-Made Catalyst For The World’s Largest Gas-To-Liquid Plant

The chemical reaction at the heart of the world’s largest gas-to-liquids (GTL) plant starting up in Qatar is borne out of Shell’s long history and expertise in catalyst technology and innovation. A unique catalyst developed for the Pearl GTL plant is key to the efficient conversion of synthesis gas into heavy hydrocarbons that provide feedstock for advanced fuels, base oils and chemicals.
