Plasma Electrolysis Produces Hydrogen from Wastewater
Plasmalysis technology converts wastewater pollutants into energy and reduces emissions by up to 60%.
Video: Holy Turtle Snaps Up Plastic Floating Off Honduras
The Holy Turtle is not a sacred reptile but a floating barrier designed to retrieve plastic waste polluting marine waters.
Pfeiffer Vacuum Presents New Two-Stage Rotary Vane Pump Pascal 2021 HW
The pump is suited for all applications where water vapor is expected, such as low temperature sterilization and drying.
Watch: In Search of the Oldest Operating Compressor in the U.K.
To commemorate its centenary, Atlas Copco U.K. is looking for something almost as old as the company.
Innovative Ball Valve with Integrated Seat Technology
The Grove IST ball valve's integrated seat technology provides superior sealing performance in a reduced footprint, with operating pressures up to 10,000 psi.
Manufacturing Small Batches of Biopharmaceuticals on Demand
The portable system from MIT can be rapidly reconfigured to produce a variety of protein drugs.
Peach Bottom Unit Scrams After Pump Failure
All control rods were inserted into the reactor and decay heat was being removed via the main condenser as Unit 3 experienced a hot shutdown.
Are You an Expert with a Good Idea? DARPA Wants Your Help
DARPA hopes to accelerate revolutionary advances with online collaboration platform Polyplexus.
Watch: Manta Rays Could Inspire Improved Water Filtration Technology
The novel mechanism used by manta rays to strain food from seawater may hold the key to improving industrial water filtration systems.
Valve Durability is Critical to a Long, Useful Service Life
Valves designed for optimal durability are made of high-quality materials and minimize maintenance, repair or replacement.
Bloom Energy to Preview Biogas Clean-up Solution at California Climate Action Summit
A standard Bloom Energy Server integrated with a new biogas clean-up module can generate clean electricity from biogas emitted by landfill, agricultural, waste and water treatment processes.
Longest, Largest Oil Pipeline in Norway is Complete
The 36 in pipeline extends 283 km from the Mongstad oil terminal outside Bergen to the giant Johan Sverdrup field in the North Sea.
A New Purpose for Waste Plastic: Fuel for Hydrogen Cars
Discarded plastic could be used to fuel cars in the future thanks to a new process developed by scientists from Swansea University.
Watch a Passive Solar-Powered Approach to Surface De-icing
A three-layered material applied or sprayed onto surfaces collects solar radiation, converts it to heat and spreads it around to effect melting.
No Wastewater Burden at Audi México Manufacturing Plant
The plant, which produces the Audi Q5, treats and reuses the effluents generated as process water in production and to irrigate the green areas on the grounds.
High Efficiency PV Cells Based on a Boron Nitride Separation Process
A boron nitride separation layer could hold the key to high efficiency hybrid photovoltaic (PV) cells that can harness a broader spectrum of light.
New Purification Method Uses Sand to Clean Chemical-ridden Stormwater
The University of California Berkeley has developed a new method to purify stormwater to create a clean source of water for water-stressed communities.
A New Route to Solar Panel Recycling
Over 95 percent of solar module components are expected to be recycled with this recovery route.
Tailoring Support Media to Optimize Reactor Reliability and Performance
Proper support media selection keeps pressure drop low, prevents fouling or plugging of the catalyst bed and enables the catalyst to achieve optimal performance.
How to Prevent Cartridge Heater Failure and Extend Heater Life
Cartridge heaters are constructed either with standard heating coils that are inserted into ceramic tubes, or for high watt densities swaged cartridge heaters are available. While these look identical, the internal construction is quite different.
