CyboSoft Introduces Flare Process Control Solution to Help Industries Comply with EPA Rules

EPA is ramping up its enforcement actions to investigate illegal air emissions by industrial flares. Since EPA will want to see the flare net heating value data from the previous 5 years when they issue a Clean Air Act (CAA) section 114 letter, it is very important for all flare operators to install a real-time heating value sensor and control system to comply with the limits and save records.CyboSoft CEO Dr. George Cheng said, “We have the technology, products, and experience in flare control and want to help the industry effectively control this complex and difficult process.”

Simulation shows the ROI of better pH control

Despite the increasing sophistication of today’s regulatory and advanced controls, pH of process and effluent fluids remains a technical backwater. “Ironically, about 90% of industrial wastewater pH processes are still controlled by on-off, bang-bang control, resulting in chemical reagent wastes, equipment corrosion and environmental pollution,” says George S. Cheng, CEO, CyboSoft.

Designing a Scalable On/Off-Grid Solar Power System

Changes in temperature, precipitation, and sea level due to global warming are causing severe weather events which can shut down power grids for hours and even weeks. Since modern infrastructure is built upon electricity, losing grid power causes significant disruption and hardship. There is a growing need to have backup power readily available when natural disasters occur.

Solar Power World Online – 2015 Top Solar Inverter Products

CYBOENERGY: On/Off-Grid CyboInverter – The 4-channel 1.2-kW On/Off-Grid CyboInverter has an on-grid output port and an off-grid output port. When the grid is on, it works like an on-grid inverter. When the grid goes down, it automatically switches to off-grid mode providing backup power. Each input channel has its own MPPT to maximize power production.

Q&A: CyboEnergy solar inverters offer benefits of central, string and micro

“California-based CyboEnergy, a subsidiary of control and automation company CyboSoft, has developed what it calls a ‘mini inverter‘ with benefits of both central inverters and microinverters. At its booth at Intersolar 2015, the company showed how its CyboInverters can operate in either on-grid or off-grid mode. A time-based grid power injection feature also allows energy to be stored in batteries and sent to the grid during peak power hours to help grid stability.”

On/Off-Grid Solar Power Mini-Inverter

By Dr. George S. Cheng
Climate change in our world is becoming more catastrophic. Power grid brownouts and shutdowns are more frequent and severe, resulting in loss of production and personal hardship. Solar power backup systems are getting more popular but solar power is wasted when the grid is on. This is because the off-grid power inverters used in backup systems are designed to power AC loads, which cannot send power to the grid.

A Solar Power Micrcogrid With or without batteries by Dr. George S. Cheng

“Although energy storage based microgrids are attracting a lot of attention and investment, there’s a niche for battery-less microgrids. There is a new type of off-grid solar power inverter that can be used with or without batteries. As there are many off-grid solar applications where batteries aren’t actually needed, battery-less microgrids are a possibility not previously offered in the industry.”
