CH4 Facts: Petrochemicals are used in most medicines like penicillin and aspirin (and the containers they come in) to cutting-edge chemotherapy drugs. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh, PA. EGCR.org #egcr #ch4facts

Tech Tuesday: These 3 images are church windows. We have 2 of them in compressor buildings — they describe anchor bolt recesses and power cylinder liner ports that have eroded over time and other things in that general shape. Learn more at the EGCR. egcr.org

Tech Tuesday: This blower is driven by a chain drive from the crankshaft so the blower speed is determined by the engine speed. To control air manifold pressure, you control the supply of air to the blower. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021. EGCR.org #egcr

CH4 Facts: If CO is going down then NOx must go up, right? Not really. Let’s take a deeper look at NOx. Levels are trending down in PPM. Why doesn’t this match the narrative we hear? Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh. EGCR.org # egcr #ch4facts

Tech Tuesday: Having a good ground is essential on electrical systems. If you are struggling with intermittent issues, grounding should be one of your first checks. Learn more at the EGCR on Sept 14-16, 2021. EGCR.org #egcr #technicaltuesday #grounded

CH4 Facts: CO Levels are trending down in PPM. Why doesn’t this match the narrative we hear? If you have a specific question, send us a message or plan to join us at the EGCR, Sept. 14-16, 2021 at the David Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, PA. EGCR.org

Tech Tuesday: As coolers age, they lose efficiency due to internal and external contamination, loss of air flow from leaks, and operational changes over the years. Learn how to respond at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh, PA. EGCR.org #egcr

CH4 Facts: We've focused on electrical consumption per nation, but what about per person? Notice the fall of the USSR in the late 1980’s in the Russian data. The efficiency improvement trend of developed nations can be seen in the graph. EGCR.org #ch4facts

Tech Tuesday: We often focus on safety related to our electronics, valves, compressors, & natural gas, etc. Make sure to give the same attention to boiler safety in your safety hazard analysis. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh. EGCR.org #egcr

CH4 Facts: We've looked at the US shale plays, but how much gas is produced from those areas? While Pennsylvania falls behind Texas as the biggest producer, the Marcellus shale is far outperforming production. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021. egcr.org

CH4 Facts: We've reviewed state production, let’s take a look at geographical areas throughout the U.S. This graphic shows the shale plays that revolutionized energy in North America and shifted the world energy markets. EGCR, Sept 14-16 EGCR.org #egcr #ch4facts

Tech Tuesday: Oil filtration has come a long way with remote mount kits for more accessible location and better filter design and we can move away from filter pot designs that contributed to downstream contamination. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16. EGCR.org

CH4 Facts: Where does US natural gas comes from? We've already talked about imports, so let’s look at production internally. The graphic shows production by state. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh. EGCR.org #ch4facts #oilandgas

CH4 Facts: What does the future hold for power generation? Coal consumption is expected to continue to fall, with natural gas and renewable growth taking up most of the slack. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh. EGCR.org ch4facts

Tech Tuesday: Aftercooler or intercooler? Intercoolers exist on engines with a 2-stage turbo. An aftercooler lives between the last turbo and the air manifold. Learn more at the EGCR on Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh. EGCR.org #egcr #technicaltuesday

CH4 Facts: Natural Gas surpassed coal in 2016 as the #1 fuel source for power plants in the U.S. and the demand has continued to accelerate as coal power plants have been shuttered. Learn more at the EGCR, Sept 14-16, 2021 in Pittsburgh, PA. EGCR.org #CH4Facts
