We will donate 100% of the proceeds we get from recycling empty gas cylinders directly to support the upkeep of Ruby and the Aussie wildlife at Caversham Wildlife Park. ... WHY ARE WE DOING IT? Recycling is everyones responsibility. Recycling has a positive effect on our planet and everything like Ruby that lives on it. Putting a face to our recycling program we hope we can encourage our customers to send in their empty cylinders to Gastech for safe recycling and we will show the rewards of this great work. MORE ABOUT RUBY This adorable koala joey is 4 months old and lives at Caversham Wildlife Park in Western Australia. Little Ruby will be the face of the Gastech cylinder recycling program!

22.01.2022 http:// METHANE FROM COWS \\ Cows emit a massive amount of methane through belching, with a lesser amount through flatulence or farts Ruminant livestock cattle, sheep, buffalo, goats, deer and camels have a fore-stomach (or rumen) containing microbes called methanogens, which are capable of digesting coarse plant material and which produce methane as a by-product of digestion (enteric fermentation). this methane is released to the atmosphere by the animal belching or bur...ping Luckily, methane production by cows and other ruminant livestock can be reduced significantly by changing the animal's diet through the addition of feed additives such as seaweed or supplements If you need to detect methane, check out some of our options https://bit.ly/3g6GYmy https://bit.ly/3g0HqTh #moo #moo #methane #cows

The Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) for a particular gas is the minimum concentration necessary to support its combustion The Upper Explosive Limit (UEL) for a combustible gas is the maximum concentration that will burn in air #lel #uel #gases #combustion #explosion

12.01.2022 http:// FIXED OR PORTABLE \\ So which type of gas detector is right for you? There are various questions you have to consider to make that choice!... What type of gas are you looking to detect? Is the gas flammable, toxic or both? Is the issue is possible oxygen depletion or enrichment? Is the hazard temporary or chronic? Generally, portable gas detectors are used for: Checking air quality in confined spaces before entry Monitoring worker gas exposure during shift work Monitoring close range oxygen levels Alerting workers of immediate threats While fixed gas detection is generally used for: Monitoring gas levels in larger areas Can be "daisy-chained" to communicate with other fixed gas detectors They are often set up to trigger other safety measures, so they can open vents, start fans, or close valves Store important data about air quality It's important to remember that both portable and fixed gas detection should be used in hazardous areas For all the facts about gas detection - get in touch with our experienced Technical Consultants!

08.01.2022 http:// CLEANING YOUR GAS DETECTOR \\ Gas detectors often spend their lives in harsh environments that are hot, humid, dirty and dusty. So, you must regularly clean them to ensure that they can perform the crucial task of preserving human life. When cleaning your gas detectors, remember these tips!... Alcohol-based cleaning products may cause a temporary response on some electrochemical sensors; potentially leading to false-alarms. Cleaning agents that contain chlorine and silicones must be avoided.

03.01.2022 http:// FLAME COLOUR TEMPERATURE \\ Did you know you can actually tell the approximate temperature of a flame by looking at its colour? Often we think of red being the hottest, however its actually the white flames that burn at 1500 degrees ... What do they all have in common - they are INCREDIBLY HOT!!! #flame #facts #temperature

03.01.2022 http:// FART GASES \\ We often get asked what gases come out when we flatulate (fart) so here they are! Farts (Flatus) consist primarily of Nitrogen (N2), the principal gas in air, along with a significant amount of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). A typical breakdown of the chemical composition of farts is:... N2 - Nitrogen: 20-90% H2 - Hydrogen: 0-50% (flammable) CO2 - Carbon dioxide: 10-30% O2 - Oxygen: 0-10% CH4 - Methane: 0-10% (flammable) H2S - Hydrogen Sulfide: <1% (flammable and smelly) DMS Dimethyl Sulfide: <1% (flammable and smelly) As you can see, human farts, contain a variety of flammable gases Hydrogen (H2) and Methane(CH4) being the more prominent ones! If enough of either of these two gases are present, it is possible to light the fart on fire ..but we dont recommend this unless youre a trained professional Speaking of Methane, this gas is often blamed for smelly farts, but remember Methane is a naturally odourless gas. The real reason farts smell depends on your health and diet, but ultimately the smell is based around Sulfide based gases, such as Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) and Dimethyl Sulfide (DMS) to name a couple Tag a farter so they can stay informed! #funny #fart #facts #flatus #gases #flammable #methane #gas #science #weareallhuman

02.01.2022 http:// ACID RAIN \\ Acid rain is a result of air pollution. When any type of fuel is burnt, lots of different chemicals are produced. Generally, acid rain is produced from the emission of sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx; the combination of NO and NO2) ... Acid rain contributes to the corrosion of surfaces exposed to air pollution and is responsible for the deterioration of limestone and marble buildings and monuments What can be done to reduce acid rain? Use of renewable energy sources such as solar panels and wind farms Walking, cycling and sharing cars all reduce the pollution from vehicles Ensuring vehicles are fitted with catalytic converters which remove dangerous chemicals from exhaust gases #acid #rain #water #gases #gastech

02.01.2022 http://OUT OF OFFICE\\ We are winding it up a little early today with a 4:30pm office closure in WA to celebrate the end of another financial year #party #time #gastech #gone #outofoffice

02.01.2022 http://FLAME TEST\\ Generally, when we think of a flame, we think of something that is either red or orange in colour, but this isn't always the case! A flame test is a procedure used in chemistry to detect the presence of certain elements, primarily metal ions. If the chemical compound is placed in the flame of a gas burner, there may be a characteristic colour given off that is visible to the naked eye. The range of colours can be anywhere between bright orange and a cool very... light blue The colour of flames in general also depends on the temperature Have you seen a light blue flame before? This colour of flame would indicate there is Zinc present! #flame #test #fire #colour #chemical #compound #gastech
