Amesphere is a proprietary “safety as a service” platform designed to help companies handle safety in complex work environments in warehouses and logistics centers. The platform was first launched last month at the ProMAT Expo. Amesphere includes services for vehicle-person…
Accurate water-monitoring technologies support short- and long-term sustainability goals in both municipalities and the industrial sector In recent years, São Paulo, Cape Town and other major world cities have come dangerously close to running out of water, and the criticality…
This company’s Electronic Bed Media Monitor (EBMv2; photo) is said to be a first-to-market technology for measuring filtration-media consumption in real time. Through continuous monitoring and an electronic notification system, this monitor makes filtration-unit maintenance predictable and plannable. The EBMv2…
The International Powder and Bulk Solids (iPBS; www.powderandbulkshow.com) Conference and Exhibition, which includes a conference program of topics related to solids handling, as well as a tradeshow highlighting all types of solids-handling process equipment, will be held April 25–27 at…
The ability to quantify liquid motion in a stirred tank is a basic step toward understanding how mixing influences process results. Quantifying mixing according to a mixing index (MI) can evaluate and predict mixing intensity related to fluid velocities in…
For decarbonization of chemical processing sites, electrification opens a new world of efficiencies and cost benefits The industrial sector is responsible for one-third of the world’s end-use energy consumption, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA; Washington,…
Bulk-solids handling is a critical aspect of many product manufacturing processes throughout the CPI, but the field is often underappreciated. Research centers that specialize in bulk-solids handling and particle technology are important resources for expanding knowledge and solving technical challenges…
BM6X Series Slam-Shut valve (photo) has received approval by Bureau Veritas Italia for use in applications with up to 100% hydrogen and pressures up to 100 bars. The certification granted to the BM6X Series Slam-Shut valve confirms the verification of…
As industry seeks to meet their net-zero commitments, captured CO2 must often be transported hundreds of miles to and from carbon-capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) hubs. The new CO2 Transportation Cloud application (app; photo) enables users to make data-driven decisions…
Current electrolyzers for producing hydrogen use purified water as feedstock, but in the future, this could exacerbate freshwater shortages in some areas. Seawater is highly abundant, but the ions it contains undergo electrode side reactions, and cause corrosion in proton-exchange…
