Question 70.. is it possible to use flanges instead of welding to join

Dear Werner,
This is Mohamed Abdelbari and my business is in Dubai, U.A.E. Basically. I need to install a 150 meters, 6 inch pipeline and this is intended to be for a high pressure application which ranges from 25-28 bar. My enquiry is that, is it possible to use flanges instead of welding to join the pipes together?
Thanking you in advance,
Regards,
Mohamed Abdelbari

Question 67.. covers practically everything in an easy to understand format

Excellent web site...covers practically everything in an easy to understand format.
I was on finding out the difference between UNC and UNF threads, and also the purpose of steam traps, of which I had about four different explanations of from different people.
The Heat Transfer section is very good, particularly the animation of a shell and tube Heat Exchanger, I wish the lecturer had shown me this when I was doing my degree it would have made things a lot easier to understand.

Keep Up the Good Work, Regards

Question 65.. explain what is the difference between a trunnion and floating ball valve

Hi there Werner,
What a great website you have here! Keep up the good work!
I'm not an engineer, but somehow I am working in an engineering company. The internet is my main source of information for product search and knowledge...so it is great that I came across your helpful website.
Recently, I came across a requirement for trunnion and floating Ball Valves. Can you explain what is the difference between them?. And is there anyway to identify the difference just from their appearance?
Appreciate your help on this.

Thank you.
Best regards
