By leveraging the peculiar laws of quantum physics, quantum computing aims to render currently intractable scientific problems feasible. Using quantum-enhanced simulations for accelerating catalyst design is an example of an area where quantum computers could be brought to bear on…
Hydrogen requires careful handling. It is colorless, odorless and highly flammable across a broad range of concentrations. As the lightest gas, it rises quickly and can accumulate in hard-to-detect areas. Without proper precautions, even a small leak can lead to…
Solids level probes designed for durability and reliability The VRX series (photo) is engineered to provide dependable point-level detection for powders and bulk solids, even under demanding industrial conditions. A highly visible, onboard status-indicator light changes from green to red…
High-performance coatings are more than protective barriers. They provide an essential part of facility design, maintenance and operations. Selecting the right coatings presents an opportunity to align technical decision-making with strategic goals In manufacturing environments, facility integrity directly impacts product…
Moving from engineering student to engineering employee can be a challenge, but there are strategies to help facilitate the transition New college graduates provide a continued source of engineering talent to companies, government agencies and other organizations. However, integrating new…
Battery performance tends to degrade over time due to the natural wear that occurs when, for example, cathode active materials (CAMs) expand and contract while shuttling ions for the reversible storage and release of electrical energy. CAMs also degrade due…
A unique reactor design allows the conversion of raw biogas (methane and carbon dioxide) into synthesis gas (syngas; hydrogen and carbon monoxide) at capital costs 100 times lower than those for gas-fired reformer reactors. Developed by e-fuels startup company Circularity…
An AI-driven digital twin has fundamentally altered the way new products are developed in the automotive sector Your product might be a game changer. But if it takes two years longer than your competitors to bring it to market, that’s…
