  • Seco Helical SN8-13 milling system delivers performance at a lower cost per edge

    The milling system cutters lower cost per edge to boost slotting, side milling and circular rough milling efficiency.

  • An efficient approach to rare Earth recovery from scrap metal

    The process slashes both the energy and product consumption involved with rare Earth element recovery.

  • Seco aims to enhance safety parameters by 20% with a new strategy in place

    The company has initiated a far-reaching employee safety strategy that involves both yearly and long-term goals extending out to the year 2030.

  • Tool helps retailers shift from high global warming refrigerants

    A free refrigerant transition hub is designed to help navigate regulatory changes implemented by the American Innovation and Manufacturing Act of 2020.

  • Harvesting green hydrogen from thin air

    By harvesting hydrogen from air, this device decouples hydrogen production from geographic limitations of the world’s freshwater resources.

  • Infographic: All about US home heating systems

    While electricity’s share has grown since 2000, most American homes are still heated with gas largely because of the fossil fuel’s affordability.

  • Keeping cool sustainably with propane as refrigerant

    Switching to propane as a refrigerant could lessen the global temperature increase from space cooling.

  • Industrial wastewater transforms into profitable byproduct

    The technique converts hazardous wastewater into potable water while retrieving valuable acids.

  • Electrification of process heating equipment for CO2 reduction

    One significant source of CO2 production is in process heating and steam generation, where fuel fired boilers and heating systems traditionally provide energy input.

  • New KOP AM20 Series Gate Valves deliver improved wellhead and tree system integrity

    The KOP AM20 Series Gate Valve significantly reduces non-productive time (NPT) and the risk of catastrophic well loss while requiring less maintenance and lower inventory costs.

  • New electrochemical pump method enhances hydrogen purification

    The purification of hydrogen can be simplified using a pump equipped with high-temperature proton-selective polymer electrolyte membranes (PEM) and phosphonic acid ionomer electrode binder.

  • Fabric filter captures and converts CO2 emissions

    The filter removes CO2 from air and gas mixtures at promising rates.

  • The new GEA NiSoX-Valve improves product micronization and uniformity

    The NiSoX-Valve design optimizes different fluid dynamic effects employing the energy in the most efficient and effective way.

  • DAWN of a new solar fuel production plant

    The world’s first industrial plant to produce synthetic fuels using solar heat is now under construction in Jülich, Germany.

  • KSB Group’s future-proof diaphragm valves for drinking water

    The valve covers a temperature range from -10° C to 90° C (14° F to 194° F) and is designed for a pressure of 16 bar (232 psi). This makes the SISTO-16RGAMaXX series highly suitable for thermal disinfection.

  • Heat exchangers: Safety and operating tips

    While this list is generic toward all heat exchangers, it can hopefully get the conversation started around heat exchanger safety and help engineer ensure optimal heat exchanger operation.

  • Fundamentals of precipitation hardening for steel alloys

    Increased hardness makes a surface less prone to damage, meaning surfaces with high hardness are less likely to be scratched or indented. This improves wear resistance significantly, which is why rugged, dirty industrial environments often call for hardened alloys.

  • New bubble detection sensor introduced by Instrumems

    Instrumems' new bubble detection sensor increases the product yield or the accuracy of the material delivery and reduces equipment downtime through early indication of liquid blockage or leaks.

  • A refresher on heat transfer methods

    To make a process cost-effective, proper heat management is essential. Before delving into optimizing heat management, it is important to review some of the basics of heat transfer and a few commonly-used methods of industrial heating.

  • Thermopiles for gas and flame detection

    Dexter Research thermopiles are selectable over a wide spectral range, fast responding and DC capable.
