HEADLINES ARCHIVE

  • Arxtera launches online shop of biological wastewater treatment products and services

    The new shop makes it easier for the company to bring its bioaugmentation and biostimulant products into the hands of industrial, municipal and residential customers quickly and cost-effectively.

  • Detecting gas compressor fugitive methane leaks for safety and environmental compliance to avoid fines

    This thermal dispersion mass flow meter continuously monitors centrifugal gas compressors for dry seal failures.

  • Just add water to build a safer battery

    The aqueous metal-ion battery uses water to replace organic electrolytes, thereby preventing the operating hazards commonly associated with lithium-ion devices.

  • One part epoxy changes from red to clear under UV light

    The originally red material changes to clear once exposed to UV light, indicating that there is UV light access across the adhesive material.

  • Seamlessly switching between heating and cooling

    The radiative cooling device allows for a seamless transition between cooling and heating modes to minimize energy use while maintaining desired indoor conditions.

  • AI expedites catalysis lab research

    The combination of AI and automated systems can deliver more information in five days than is possible in six months of conventional testing.

  • Cleaning, flushing, draining and charging your thermal oil system

    Consider these guidelines when replacing fluid in thermal oil systems.

  • Achieve the maximum results from thermal insulation products

    Fiberglass thermal insulation is highly effective for process optimization and product performance.

  • See epoxy change from red to clear under UV light

    UV curable adhesive UV15RCL visibly changes color with UV light penetration.

  • What are functionally graded composites?

    Functionally graded composites give the best of both worlds to a material. They allow for the advantages of both materials to be combined without sacrificing one for the other, as traditional isotropic composites do.

  • Sustainable remanufacturing of solar cells

    The strategy goes beyond recycling by significantly reducing a module’s global warming potential.

  • Arburg at Plastpol 2024: European premiere of the Allrounder 720 E Golden Electric

    The company will showcase the Allrounder 720 E Golden Electric, which combines electrical precision and process stability with a smaller installation area.

  • Integrating reactors and storage vessels into smart manufacturing

    Smarter chemical reactor, bioreactor and storage tank monitoring can be realized with the appropriate sensors and data acquisition systems.

  • Tandem solar cell design blends old and new building blocks

    A new type of solar cell made using selenium and silicon could offer a cost advantage while also delivering energy conversion efficiency.

  • Busch Vacuum Solutions to showcase energy-efficient vacuum solutions at NPE Plastics Show

    The company will highlight proven solutions for every phase of production, storage and transport of plastics raw materials and finished products.

  • ArburgSOLUTIONworld at Chinaplas 2024: A world of answers

    Digital automation, energy efficiency and sustainability solutions for plastics processing will be showcased.

  • Team creates amphibian-inspired camouflage skin

    To create the new type of camouflage skin, the team employed one-dimensional photonic crystal structures assembled in three-dimensional flexible gels.

  • A way to get gold from e-waste with whey

    A low-density aerogel derived from whey protein, a byproduct of the cheesemaking industry, has been developed to selectively adsorb gold from the remains of discarded electronics.

  • Cutting the cost of sustainable aviation fuel

    An innovative biomass pretreatment technology provides a path for cost-containment in sustainable aviation fuel production.

  • A wireless sensor for quickly spotting chemical warfare agents

    Setting this device apart, according to its developers is not only its rapid response, but also its high sensitivity and compact size, all of which are critical for the early detection of CWAs.
