Blackmer extends its line of GNX series pumps with new 3 and 4-inch models
The pumps are designed to optimize the transfer of non-corrosive, non-abrasive industrial and petroleum products for both portable and stationary applications.
A new way to sound out safe drinking water
The laser-induced sound pinging method measures the speed of sound in liquid samples to determine physicochemical properties.
Researchers at EPFL use AI to simplify design of turbochargers for GHP
Jürg Schiffmann is the lead author of "Data-Driven Predesign Tool for Small-Scale Centrifugal Compressor in Refrigeration." The paper surmises a new method of designing microturbocharger technology for geothermal heat pumps (GHP).
How does a jet engine work?

Absorption chillers market could grow 4% per year through 2029
The U.S. is expected to account for a maximum share in the global absorption chillers market over the forecast period.
Control valve sizing guide
Use this guide to determine proper control valve size to guarantee optimum system performance.
What is an ARV valve?
An ARV diverts fluid flow from the discharge of a centrifugal pump through a bypass circuit to ensure a minimum flow rate is maintained.
Vessel-based P&A technology safely pressure tests suspended mudline wells
The technology is able to seal on to any type and size of temporary abandonment (TA) cap, pressure test the seal to ensure well containment, then test and vent pressure from below the TA cap and leave a reliable secondary seal in place.
Watch how researchers achieved a 50% gain in solar desalination efficiency
The performance of a nanophotonics-enabled solar membrane distillation system has been improved by 50% with the addition of low-cost plastic lenses to concentrate sunlight into "hot spots."
Watch: Solar mini-refinery produces carbon-neutral fuel
A solar mini-refinery on the roof of ETH Zurich is demonstrating the production of hydrocarbon fuels from sunlight and air under field conditions.
Draft plans approved in West Virginia for a commercial scale coal-to-liquids plant
To support a modern energy model that has become less reliant on coal, a West Virginia manufacturer has proposed and draft plans have been approved to construct a commercial scale coal-to-liquids plant, creating a value stream for an otherwise undervalued commodity.
New ReNu pumphead technology offers accurate and repeatable flow for polymer dosing
The new Qdos 20 ReNu PU pumphead offers accurate and repeatable flow for chemicals with a wide-ranging viscosity.
Protect personnel and critical equipment from thermal threats
You can trust that Firex will buy your personnel and equipment the critical time they need when exposed to rapid-temperature-rise fires.
New liquid diaphragm pump doubles previous flow rates
KNF has announced a new low pulsation liquid diaphragm pump that delivers up to 12 L/min, almost double previous maximum outputs.
TTP Ventus expands micropump product line
The LT Series provides in excess of 5,000 hours of continuous operation across a wide temperature range from -25° C to 40° C.
