Globaltherm C1 FF is a synthetic clean and flush product (photo) designed to simplify maintenance for industries relying on heat transfer systems. Globaltherm C1 FF offers a safer, faster and more cost-effective alternative to traditional cleaning methods, says the manufacturer.…
Designed to deliver durability and emissions control, the FlexCore liquid-mounted seal flor floating-roof tank applications ensures a superior vapor-tight seal by combining a reliable foam-log core with Armor Fabric vapor-barrier seal fabric. This design not only reduces emissions and already…
Semiconductors are vital components in the modern technologies that we use in our everyday lives, both in industrial automation and consumer products. Computers, automobile electronics, smartphones and other “smart” devices, robotics and medical devices that depend on semiconductor chips are…
Industries face significant emissions-reduction and decarbonization challenges, but there is a clear path forward through strategic adoption of process optimization and new technology integration The chemical process industries (CPI) and associated value chains are as diverse as the products they…
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…
High-performance polymers can compete with metallic systems in harsh processing environments and may offer potential benefits in certain applications The petroleum-refining and natural-gas industries are constantly evolving, spurred by the imperative within energy markets to be continually on the lookout…
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…
Efficient and sustainable recycling of lithium-ion batteries is a crucial element in electrifying transportation. Black mass is a mixture of cathode and anode materials remaining after disassembly and shredding of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Many valuable materials, including lithium and…
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…
Using the right tools, chemical manufacturers can make sustainable step changes, such as for emissions reductions, while also increasing operational efficiency and product yield The chemical process industries (CPI) are characterized by faithful devotion to tried-and-true procedures, yielding efficient production,…
