In chemical and pharmaceutical processing, filtration and separation are indispensable processes requiring precision, safety, and efficiency. One of the most reliable technologies for this is the Pressure Nutsche Filter (PNF). Let‘s learn what a PNF is, how it operates, and why it‘s a vital piece of equipment in today’s industrial operations. What is a Pressure Nutsche Filter (PNF)? A Pressure Nutsche Filter (PNF) is a closed system filter unit designed for pressure or vacuum filtration of solid-liquid […]

Across industries from pharma to food and beverages, dispensers are extremely important for providing accurate, sanitary, and effective dispensing of liquids, powders, or other materials. A dispenser is a machine used to control the release or dissemination of a product—fluid, paste, granular product, or even gases. Dispensers not only enhance accuracy and consistency but also reduce waste, spillage, and contamination—making them essential tools in both manual and automated processes. In this blog, we’ll explore the different types of

In chemical processing, hydrogenation systems are of vital importance in changing the molecular structure for numerous industrial applications. From the production of foods to pharmaceuticals, hydrogenation is a powerful and widely used process that has transformed modern-day manufacturing. Here in this blog, we learn what hydrogenation is, how the hydrogenation system functions, and the different types employed across industries.  What is Hydrogenation? Hydrogenation is a chemical process wherein hydrogen (H₂) is added to other molecules, normally with the help of a catalyst such as nickel, palladium, or platinum. It is widely utilized to: Synthesize saturated compounds from unsaturated compounds Enhance stability, shelf-life, or reactivity Form certain molecular configurations in petrochemicals and drugs It generally occurs under controlled

Distillation is a basic separation process used extensively in chemical, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, and food industries. It incorporates the separation of constituents based on the difference in boiling points. At ACME Process Systems, we design and manufacture various distillation units to suit different industrial requirements. Here, we‘ll be discussing various types of distillation units, their operation, and where they‘re applied commonly. 1. Simple Distillation Unit Application: For separating mixtures with very different boiling points. How it works: A mixture is heated in a boiler, the constituent that has the lower boiling point is evaporated first,

Mixing is a significant aspect of industrial processes to obtain consistent products, improve chemical reactions, and ensure material uniformity. From liquid blending to gas dispersion, suspending solids to heat transfer, the appropriate agitator makes all the difference. An agitator is a mechanical component to mix or stir fluids, slurries, or solids in a vessel or tank. The type of agitator chosen is based on the process need, including the viscosity of the material, vessel size, and desired result. In this blog, we discuss the various types of agitators, their design characteristics, and typical uses in industries. 1. Paddle Agitator Design: Has flat blades mounted on a central shaft. Best suited: Low to medium viscosity liquids that need gentle mixing. Applications:
