Water treatment selectively removes nitrates
The remedial process relies on the use of ultramicroporous carbon as a capacitive deionization electrode for selectively removing nitrate from an anion mixture.
Chemical plant fire and explosion due to equipment fault
Witnesses reported an explosion shortly after the fire broke out, and several fire departments were called into battle the blaze, which was fueled by chemical inventory.
First concentrated lithium carbonate produced from 3Q lithium reservoir
Neo Lithium Corporation sourced concentrated brine from their Tres Quebradas lithium project to produce high purity lithium carbonate, 99.1% Li2CO3, at their fully operational pilot plant in Fiambalá.
Serbian pump manufacturer to treat and reuse its own wastewater
The Biobooster facility will treat all domestic wastewater, which accounts for 60-70% of the factory’s wastewater.
New device improves consistency in powder flow
A Bluetooth-controlled device placed inside the processing bin directly transfers vibration energy to the powder and monitors temperature, humidity and pressure to gauge product quality.
New solenoid pumps and stepper motor pumps for chemical applications
Ideal solutions for precise, reproducible dosing of chemicals.
Seepex unveils sanitary progressive cavity pump with flexible rod drive train design
The sanitary progressive cavity pump incorporates a flexible rod drive train design for simpler maintenance and clean in place/clean out of place processes.
WEFTEC 2019 opens opportunities for water quality professionals
The annual technical exhibition and conference presented by the Water Environment Foundation (WEF) runs from Sept. 21-25, 2019, in Chicago.
IMI Critical Engineering showcases new control valve at 2019 SPE Offshore Europe
The 100 DMT control valve showcased at 2019 SPE Offshore Europe was developed to serve a wide range of applications in the oil and gas industry.
Rice University develops catalytic reactor for reduction of carbon dioxide
Researchers at Rice University developed an electrocatalytic reactor that produces high-purity, highly concentrated liquid formic acid from carbon dioxide.
Unique enclosure with patented air ventilation
The Altech AKIII industrial enclosure has a patented air ventilation system that eliminates condensation.
UK facility to produce aviation fuel from waste
The proposed facility will divert over half a million tons per year of non-recyclable waste from landfills and incinerators for the production of jet fuel.
Proven detector solutions for gas analysis
Thermopile detectors for gas analysis and flame detection.
Measurement and control of compressed air systems
To reduce the likelihood of problems like moisture, compressed air supplies are often conditioned to remove or significantly reduce the moisture content before the air is consumed by the process.
Moisture measurement for ozone generators
Ozone is increasingly used to purify water as an alternative to chlorination. There are four principle applications.
Construction set to begin on 430-mile Permian Highway Pipeline
The PHP project will provide additional takeaway capacity to an area where flaring and venting of natural gas has been at an all-time high, as flaring and venting of natural gas in the Permian Basin was estimated at 661 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) in the first quarter of 2019.
Direct steam injection offers precise temperature control and rapid response
Direct steam injection systems are easy to install when medium to high-pressure steam is available. They are compact, light and highly efficient
Solid or dry film lubrication for OEM and MRO applications
Solid and dry film lubricants, which are applied as a non-fluid coating by spraying, dipping or brushing onto the surface, reduce the friction between parts and cannot be washed away.
Innovative food waste technology
ORCA has presented a new solution for food waste. This technology utilizes proprietary microorganisms for aerobic digestion of solid food waste and it produces a liquid that is safely disposed of via existing sanitary sewer infrastructure, eliminating the need for solid waste management.
New 10,000 psi capping stack supports subsea well intervention in European region
Wild Well Control added a new capping stack to their WellCONTAINED line of subsea containment equipment. The 10,000 psi capping stack couples with their debris removal shears, hardware kits for dispersant and inhibition fluids and other ancillary equipment to provide a comprehensive subsea emergency response package.
