  • World-first as Wales hosts hydrogen hybrid heat trial

    An air source heat pump, hydrogen boiler and data-led smart controls demonstrate the potential for delivering hybrid low-carbon heating.

  • General's Power-Vee clears drains quickly and easily

    The Power-Vee with automatic feed makes drain cleaning quicker and easier.

  • Flinders' device mixes the "unmixable"

    According to its developers, the rapid fluidic flow technique could have applications for industrial processes including food processing, nutraceuticals, cosmetics and drug delivery.

  • Custom air knives for unique applications

    Air knives can be tailored for diverse blowoff, cooling, cleaning and drying applications.

  • Decarbonizing through industrial electrification

    Nearly half of industrial process heating is used for processes at or below 400 C, which could easily shift to electricity.

  • Harper International receives contract for graphite purification furnace systems for battery materials

    The company will produce custom-engineered systems for thermal purification of natural graphite.

  • Video: New hydrogen storage tech to be piloted in UK

    The system provides a convenient and intrinsically safe way to store hydrogen at normal atmospheric temperatures and pressures.

  • Largest direct air capture facility calls Iceland home

    Orca utilizes a three-step process for removing CO2. The carbon dioxide produced by power plants and industrial environments is trapped, transferred and then buried underground.

  • New Orbinox HB high-pressure knife valve for high-pressure performance and reliability

    The new HB series knife gate valve comprises precisely machined, two-piece ductile iron half bodies, and a wafer style bi-directional knife gate valve.

  • Understanding ASHRAE Standard 199 testing

    The testing process involves six stages that replicate a dust collector's real-world performance under real-world conditions.

  • MIT student develops innovative new centrifugal pump type — The variable volute water pump

    An MIT doctoral student, in collaboration with Xylem Water Solutions, has invented a new kind of centrifugal pump dubbed the ‘variable volute’ pump.

  • The Jamesbury Wafer-Sphere high-performance butterfly valve from Neles

    The valves can accommodate a variety of pneumatic and electric actuators for on-off service, as well as pneumatic double-acting and spring-return actuators with positioners for control service.

  • Plasma gasification can cure COVID biomedical waste ills

    The high-temperature waste decomposition process deactivates infectious materials and yields valuable synthesis gas.

  • Circor reveals the versatile CIR 3100 control valve series

    The CIR 3100 is suitable for throttling and on-off control of fluids such as gas, steam, water or chemical compounds to compensate for the load disturbance and to keep the regulated process variable as close as possible to the desired set point.

  • Franklin Electric reveals NCX series explosion proof submersible non-clog pumps

    The new FPS NCX Series explosion proof submersible non-clog pumps offer a safer wastewater transfer solution for municipal infrastructure operators.

  • Seal off water back-up with Flood-Guard™

    Flood-Guard operates like a check valve to seal off water back-up caused by overloaded sewers.

  • World first: Solar power used to produce clinker

    The world's first solar clinker, a key component of cement, has been produced by CEMEX and Synhelion.

  • Stainless steel, food-grade plastic parts for food processing equipment, conveyors

    Stafford stainless steel and food-grade plastic parts include USDA- and FDA-approved 303 or 316 stainless steel, nylon or Delrin shaft collars, rigid couplings and mounts with 18-8 or 316 SS fasteners.

  • Kombucha cultures improve living water filters

    Water filters made from a kombucha culture with living bacteria and yeast are more resistant to clogging compared to traditional membrane filters.

  • Using the seabed to heat coastal homes

    Capillary heat exchangers offer potential for use as heat pumps in shallow coastal waters of the seabed to provide homes with a reliable supply of heat.
