International Sales Partner Conference 2023 of Dr. Födisch in Germany

This week we had our International Sales Partner Conference 2023 together with about 36 Sales Partners. The Födisch-Team is glad about two very successful days with product demonstrations, presentation of case studies and workshops as well as guided factory tours including our new manufacturing hall and calibration center.

The Sales-Team thanks all participants for joining the conference. See you again soon e.g. live on CEM 2023 in Barcelona or ACHEMA 2024 in Germany. 

All sales and service partners who could not be there are cordially invited to arrange individual visits or to have the products presented online.

New calibration system for the MCA 10

A calibration system and extensive testing equipment for Dr. Födisch gas analysers of the MCA 10 product series, adapted to the increasing requirements for accuracy and efficiency, was delivered today to the company’s headquarter. The calibration system was developed by the subsidiary EP Ehrler using the latest technologies.

Within the next few days, the calibration system will be installed and put into operation in the new manufacturing hall. The continuous and routine operation for factory calibration of MCA 10 is planned from June at the latest.

Development of the continuous monitoring of the acid dew point in order to increase the energy efficiency in industrial plants and to protect the climate

The focus of the 18-month project is the development of the continuous acid dew point measurement (methodology and technology). The idea of the research and product development project is based on variety of concrete applications from the chemical, energy and environmental sectors. These sectors have been facing the similar problem for years – namely this means that in combustion plants at a certain exhaust gas temperature, the sulphur oxides react to sulfuric acid which is harmful to the plant in the presence of water vapour. In order to counteract the devastating corrosion process, the exhaust gas temperatures are usually kept well above the acid dew point. The energy expenditure for this is very high, consequently are also the ecological damages considerable. The target is to use appropriate measuring technology to keep the exhaust gas temperature as close as possible above the actual acid dew point, in order to achieve a lower energy input, higher power output and to reduce CO₂, SO₂ and NO_x emissions.

Development of a quick and automatic test system to detect boars smells

Male piglets produce hormones upon their sexual maturity which can initiate a disagreeable boars’ smell. This smell can decrease the sales of boars’ meat in Germany and Europe. Early slaughter and manual odour tests are currently applied. Legal basic conditions aggravate other methods which are used in the early phase of the boars’ growth. From 2019 onwards the piglets’ castration without anaesthesia will be forbidden. Vaccinations shall find a remedy, however these are not the optimal solution with regard to consumer protection. 

In the current R&D project a quick test automatic based on metal oxide sensor technology shall be developed for the application on the slaughter line in order to standardise the judgement of the smell objectively. The project has started on 1^st of August 2016 and will be performed in cooperation with the Frankenförder research institute and a company (slaughterhouse) from Thuringia.

Start of microelectronics EU project IoSense

Project IoSense kicked off on 19. May 2016 in Dresden.  28 partners from 7 European countries launched the project "Flexible Sensor pilot line for IoT", in short: IoSense, on the 19th of May 2016 by consortium leader Infineon Dresden. The whole funding volume of the project is 65 million euros. Funding sponsors are the European Commission, the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research and the Free State of Saxony. Dr. Födisch Umweltmesstechnik AG hereby profits by the further development of the fine dust sensor FDS 15 to chip level, being so prepared for the future requirements of industry 4.0.
