The Flexim Fluxus/PIOX 731 Series (photo) is a new range of non-intrusive, clamp-on ultrasonic flowmeters designed to offer flexibility, convenience and availability. The nine models in the 731 Series feature high-performance volumetric and mass-flow sensing technologies and a robust, functional…
A dual process strategy bridging fermentation and electrochemistry is enabling the production of mid-chain carboxylic acids (MCCAs) — important and valuable precursors to a number of products — using inexpensive organic waste streams from breweries, distilleries and dairies. Developed by…
Wireless networking via 5G enables industrial companies to achieve fast communication, reliable data transmission, and flexible processes, for example in maintenance. The new explosion-proof Smart-Ex 203 smartphone (photo), first presented at the Hannover Messe 2025 tradefair, supports the use of…
A pilot project completed at the end of last year demonstrated the ability of a technology to convert a range of feedstocks into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at lower cost than current ethanol-to-jet (ETJ) processes. Universal Fuel Technologies (UniFuel; Los…
Understanding the differences among key temperature-control devices, such as heaters, coolers and heat exchangers, allows users to realize their unique benefits When it comes to temperature control in industrial, commercial and residential settings, three key devices are often considered: heat…
The extraction of alumina from bauxite is significantly impacted by the silica content of the ore — specifically the presence of silica in kaolinite (Al2Si2O5(OH)4). This is because traditional bauxite-beneficiation methods, such as washing, flotation and particle-size separation, also typically…
Rotron CP and EN regenerative blowers (photo) are engineered to provide safety and efficiency in hazardous and corrosive environments. Constructed from aluminum, these blowers are naturally spark- and corrosion-resistant, distinguishing them from other blowers that are typically made of steel…
Aggregate — solid materials like sand, gravel and crushed stone — is combined with cement to make concrete, the world’s most widely used human-made material. But sand is in short supply, so there is a need for alternate materials to…
As research continues, commercial applications expand and manufacturing scales up, graphene is not only set to invigorate existing industries, but also to lay the groundwork for entirely new ones Graphene, a two-dimensional material derived solely from carbon, is one of…
Varipond C (photo) is a new technical solution for decanter centrifuges that enables simple, fast and precise adjustment of the separation zone and pond depth. Varipond C ensures consistent separation results and high product yields in the production of beverages,…
