Linde Water Treatment Technology and Solutions
The limited supply of clean water coupled with increased demand drives the need to develop new or alternative methods and solutions for water treatment.
Hexoloy Silicon Carbide Tubes for Protecting Your Temperature Sensor
In higher temperature environments with abrasive particulates, Hexoloy tubes provide unmatched protection without compromising sensor accuracy.
Video: a Boost for Ethanol-derived Jet Fuel
ASTM International updates standard for alcohol-to-jet synthetic paraffinic kerosene based on fuel produced by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and partner LanzaTech.
Watch How Water is Harvested from Desert Air
A water harvester using metal-organic framework technology extracts water from air every day and night cycle at low humidity and low cost.
Steam Drying Benefits Biofuel Logistics and Use
Steam drying technology reduces biofuel transportation costs and yields valuable feedstock for the chemical industry.
Software Predicts Reliability of Urban Wastewater Treatment Facilities
The tool determines whether a large wastewater treatment plant is capable of reliably meeting increasing demand.
Synthetic Biotechnology Tools Used to Create a Biodegradable Insecticide
A research team from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has developed a biodegradable agent that keeps pests away without poisoning them or harming the environment.
OEM Replacement Diffusion Pump Heaters
Single piece assembly platen heaters that are manufactured from high-quality tubular heating elements are swaged under 50 tons of pressure into a grey iron casting. The unique swaged assembly increases the performance of the heater and is available as a direct original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement for several leading vacuum diffusion pump brands including CVC Products, Cooke Vacuum, Edwards High Vacuum, Leybold, Torr Scientific, Varian/NRC and Veeco.
New PVDF Ball Check Valves Available from Hayward Flow Control
Typical applications or installations include water and wastewater treatment, chemical feed systems, chemical processing and mining and mineral processing.
Mitsubishi Shipbuilding and MHPS Launch Advanced SOx Abatement System Active Funnel
The Active Funnel is ideal for very large container ships with high exhaust gas emissions and limited installation space for sulfur oxide abatement systems.
First Fire for Carbon Dioxide-Fueled Demo Power Plant
Carbon capture costs nothing in NET Power’s new plant, which uses supercritical carbon dioxide to drive a turbine.
Tunable Membrane Switches Between Oil or Water Removal
A low-cost, reusable membrane can be used to separate oil and water on demand and with near-perfect efficiency.
Industrial Heaters for Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery Methods
Demand for environmentally friendly, economically favorable oil sands production methods has driven process refinements as well as the development of new techniques.
Nanoparticles Deliver Cancer-fighting Drugs Directly to the Tumor
The nanoparticles were specifically developed to fight glioblastoma multiforme one of the most difficult forms of cancer to treat.
Turning Pollution on Its Head
A new technology can turn captured carbon dioxide emissions into a common plastics precursor — meaning that pollution can be used to make plastics, rather than the other way around.
A More Precise Analysis of the Organic Fraction of Smog
A new, extremely precise method has been developed for the chemical analysis of suspended particulate matter comprising smog.
High-temp Electrolysis Combines with Solar-thermal Steam
Simulations show that hydrogen can be generated in a renewable manner at an overall efficiency of between 20 and 25 percent if high-temperature electrolysis and solar-thermal energy are combined.
Rethinking the Centrifugal Fan Selection
A very common type of centrifugal fan, typically referred to as a centrifugal blower, uses a squirrel cage type wheel with many forward-curved blades. The blades are shallow with a substantial curvature in the direction of rotation that results in a higher blade tip speed than a backward-curved blade.
Improved Software Application for Pipeline Professionals
Address pipeline design, construction, operation and integrity with a tested, validated and proven software application that has more than 230 different integrated pipeline-specific, oil and gas applications and calculations.
5 Reasons to Replace Tank Spargers with In-Line Direct Steam Injection Heaters
With few components, spargers are easy to make, simple to install and inexpensive but are plagued by a number of issues. Pick Heaters has developed a solution.
