The OpreX Pressure Transmitter EJX S Series is the successor to this company's core EJX A lineup of plant field instruments. Building on a silicon resonant sensor technology, the EJX S Series offers enhancements in accuracy, long-term stability and durability…
Olefin epoxidation is an important reaction for making a range of industrial intermediates in processes for epoxy coatings, polyurethanes, polyester textiles, surfactants, specialty chemicals, pharmaceuticals and others. Conventional olefin epoxidation involves organo-peroxides or organo-halogen oxidants, which present safety and environmental…
Nanomox (London, U.K.; www.nanomox.net) has invented a synthesis platform for metal oxides where multifunctional ionic liquids enable high selectivity for specialized morphologies. While the technology can be tailored for a large number of metals, the company is currently targeting zinc…
Updated mobile app allows more from SCADA software This company redesigned the mobile app for its software-as-a-service (SaaS) supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) software (photo). The new app is designed to allow operators and technicians to do more in…
Minimizing cost is the key parameter for the viability of direct-air-capture (DAC) systems that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The startup company Sustaera Inc. (Research Triangle Park, N.C.; www.sustaera.com) has built a prototype DAC system that it says can…
Ammonia cracking, decomposing ammonia into its constituent nitrogen and hydrogen molecules, is gaining traction as an emerging source for cleaner hydrogen. However, this reaction is very endothermic and requires heat and high temperature. In a proprietary technology developed by Duiker…
A new approach to advanced recycling combines heterogeneous catalysis with electromagnetic induction, enabling the conversion of polyolefin-rich waste streams into versatile materials. Developed by bobine (Strasbourg, France; www.bobine-chemistry.com), this fully electric technology can help decarbonize the production of olefins like…
Last month, members of the Society of Chemical Manufacturers & Affiliates (SOCMA; Arlington, Va.; www.socma.org) gathered in Nashville, Tenn. for the annual SOCMA Show event. At the event, between talk of tariffs, ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainty, the proliferation of…
Flow behavior of solid materials can have a significant impact on safety. These case studies illustrate how a better understanding of flow behavior can reduce safety risks At least 75% of chemical process and manufacturing operations involve bulk solids in…
