Flow meter is an integral tool that measures linear, non-linear, volumetric, or mass flow rate of a liquid or a gas or mixture of both. Fluid characteristics, flow profile, flow range, and the need for accurate measurements are the key factors used to determine the right flow meter for a particular application. There are various types of flow meters available in the market depending upon the accuracy required and their applications in various end use industries. Types of flow meters include differential pressure, positive displacement, ultrasonic, turbine, magnetic, Coriolis, vortex, and others. The overall accuracy of flow meter also depends on the circumstances of the application. The above-mentioned types of flow meter are basically classified by considering the circumstances of the application it is being used in. As the effect of temperature, pressure, fluid, and dynamic influences may potentially alter the measurement being taken.

Consumers’ interest in food safety and quality is growing across the world. Food and beverage products can be contaminated by a variety of pathogen and spoilage microbiota, the former causing foodborne diseases and the latter causing significant economic losses for the food industry, due to undesirable effects on the food properties. It has been estimated that approximately 25% of all the food produced is lost after harvest due to microbial activity. The growth of spoilage microbiota in food products has negative impact on the shelf-life, textural characteristics, and overall quality of the finished products, thus affecting the consumer choices and resulting in significant commercial losses. This highlights the urgency and attention with which the food spoilage issues should be addressed. Antimicrobial food additives play an important role in the prevention and inhibition of microbial growth in food products.

A major amount of caprolactam produced globally is used in manufacturing nylon 6 resins and fibers. Caprolactam is preferred to ω-aminocaproic acid for the manufacture of nylon 6, as it is easier to make and to purify. ε-caprolactam is the most common caprolactam isomer. Nylon 6 is known to be a tough and abrasion-resistant material, which possesses high tensile strength. This material is commonly available in the form of sheets. Some of the common applications of nylon 6 include industrial yarns, resins, films, textiles, and carpets, among others.  Some of the major producers of nylon 6 are BASF SE (Ultramid), RTP Company (ESD, RTP), Domo (DOMAMID), SABIC (THERMOCOMP, THERMOTUF, LUBRICOMP), and PolyOne (Nymax / Bergamid). Nylon 6 is witnessing a growing demand from the Asia-Pacific countries, owing to the increasing demand for nylon filament. Additionally, in the recent past, a significant amount of capacity was added for nylon 6 in this region. This is expected to continue in the future.
