Solvents are commonly used for performing photochemical reactions. Many of these solvents are toxic, and require additional downstream processing to purify the product and treat waste. Now, by combining light with mechanical energy in ball mills, researchers at Ruhr University…
The gas subcooled process (GSP) is a method for low-temperature separation of natural-gas liquids (ethane, propane) from natural gas. Depending on the current market prices of ethane and propane, gas processors extract ethane from the natural gas or reject it…
The Rosemount 319 Flushing Ring with valve-integrated design (photo), ensures accurate differential pressure (DP) measurement and lower maintenance. Available in traditional and compact options, the new 319 Flushing Rings provide a process-to-seal connection and allow for faster diaphragm-seal maintenance without…
The first polymeric ultrafiltration (UF) membrane with a completely new geometry since the seven-capillary Multibore debuted over two decades ago, Multibore PRO (photo) combines 19 bores within a single fiber to enable users to realize both performance and sustainability benefits…
The PSD-4 electronic pressure switch (photo) is a universal solution for industrial automation tasks. Thanks to EHEDG and 3-A certification, the pressure switch is also suitable for industries with high hygienic requirements. Due to an accuracy of less than±0.5% and…
Membrane filtration plants are often used in the food and dairy industry to separate or concentrate substances without thermal stress. Until now, cleaning-in-place (CIP) operations for this equipment was energy- and water-intensive, requiring three or four individual cleaning steps with…
A newly developed hydrogen compressor has a linear motor design and is hermetically sealed to increase the efficiency of H2 compression while avoiding potential problems associated with H2, such as leaks and embrittlement. The linear motor-driven reciprocating compressor (LMRC), developed…
The new VersaTek glove coating (photo) is an intelligent and durable technology that adapts to almost any environment so workers can get their job done without having to sacrifice safety, comfort, grip or dexterity. Engineered stabilizers allow this intelligent coating…
As process technologies — and their associated risks to workers — evolve, personal protective equipment must continue to push the boundaries in both functionality and comfort Personal protective equipment (PPE) — helmets, fire-resistant clothing, gloves, goggles and so on —…
