Biogas Thermal Mass Flow Meter Improves Operation of S.P.M. Feed Company's Methane Recovery System

From Fluid Components Intl. (FCI)

S.P.M. Feed Company Limited operates in Pakto, Pak Tho Ratchaburi, Thailand, with more than 100,000 head of swine. As a company participating in the organic biomass fermentation and recovery industry, S.P.M. generates power from biogas produced by the organic industrial waste from the livestock. The company needed a reliable instrument to measure methane gas flow to support its operations.

Flow Switches
Flow switches are devices that monitor flow and send a trip signal to other devices, like a pump, for protection. These switches can be used for the measurement of gases, liquids, and steam.
Flow Meters
Flow meters (flowmeters) and flow sensors are devices used for measuring the flow rate or quantity of a moving fluid or gas.
Volumetric Gas Flow Switches
Volumetric gas flow switches are devices with a switch output used for measuring the flow or quantity of a moving gas in terms of a unit of volume per unit time, such as cubic feet per minute.
Gas Flow Meters
Gas flow meters are used for measuring the flow or quantity of a moving gas in an enclosed pipe or passage.
Liquid Flow Meters
Liquid flow meters are used to measure the volumetric flow rate or amount of a moving liquid.
