Fluorescence can "see" what you can't
Fluorescence targets selected compounds in liquids. Find out the basics of fluorescence here.
Hygienic actuator for automation of rotary valves
The device is designed for food and beverage applications, including dairies, breweries and distilleries.
A guide to remedy water system stagnation in low-occupancy buildings
Stagnation within building water systems becomes a problem during periods of low or no occupancy, as is being experienced now during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Multi-stage mag-drive centrifugal pumps provide more pressure at low flows
Applications for the leak-free pumps include chemical transfer and processing, electroplating, water and waste water transfer, circuit board manufacture and pharmaceuticals.
Tough carbon-flourine bonds broken by photo-powered nanocatalyst
This power catalyst could help clean up a certain group of long-lasting environmental pollutants.
Carbon nanotube porins boost desalination efficiency
Carbon nanotube porins, with pores just 0.8 nm in diameter, can provide an efficient salt ion removal alternative to commercial desalination membranes.
Innovative heat trace solutions for thermal maintenance
In many industrial and commercial applications, a sufficient drop in temperature, especially when combined with precipitation, means unacceptable consequences.
Flow meter designed for high-pressure hydrogen dispensing
The meter can be deployed to contain costs in large-scale custody transfer operations, such as public transportation systems, where hydrogen is used to power hybrid bus engines.
Delayed again: Africa's largest oil refinery
When opened, this will become the world's seventh largest oil refinery, despite years of delays.
ASME Virtual Classroom covers pressure relief devices
Participants in the virtual class will learn how to protect pressurized equipment from exceeding the maximum allowable working pressure.
Research: Carbon catalyst replaces precious metals
If realized, this technology could disrupt many traditional processes.
Pyrolysis process produces hydrogen from sewage solids
Biosolids generated as wastewater treatment byproducts can be repurposed as the basis for a new hydrogen fuel production scheme developed at RMIT University, Australia.
A simpler method for optical fiber fabrication
The fiber-drawing tower and other complex equipment now used in the multiple-stage production process can be replaced with work bench-mounted equipment designed to produce fibers in an hour.
Polymer membrane removes steroid hormones from water
Combining a polymer membrane with activated carbon effectively removes the hormone estradiol from water supplies.
An intelligent sequencing system for steam boilers
The programmable logic controller-based boiler sequencing control system can sequence up to four boilers to ensure energy efficient operation and improve boiler longevity.
The case for treating food waste in California’s wastewater plants
At least half of California’s landfill-bound food waste could be processed at the state’s wastewater treatment plants and serve as an innovative power source.
