Technip Energies (Paris) announced the completion of its acquisition of the Advanced Materials & Catalysts (AM&C) business from Ecovyst Inc. (Malvern, Pa.) , a global leader in specialty catalysts and advanced materials. This strategic transaction expands Technip Energies’ portfolio by…
Moeve (Madrid, Spain) has signed a strategic agreement with Pretium Renovables to promote the development of renewable biomethane in Spain. The energy company has invested in this company, which specializes in developing biomethane projects, as a strategic partner to promote…
As industries navigate a rapidly changing technological landscape, the need for efficient, sustainable and forward-thinking process solutions has never been greater. From optimizing production lines to reducing emissions and maximizing energy efficiency, the challenges facing manufacturing and processing sectors today…
The COMBI WVD vacuum booster pump unit features high pumping speed and low ultimate pressure, from atmosphere down to the 10-3 hPa (mbar) range. This makes it ideal for both standalone operation and use as backing pump for high vacuum…
Combining microscopy and machine-learning techniques leads to faster, more precise analyses of critical coating materials When the SR-71 Blackbird aircraft was designed to soar at three times the speed of sound, engineers faced an extreme challenge: managing the heat generated…
A novel crystallizer has shown promise in lowering costs for direct-air capture (DAC) of CO2 emissions. In recent work published in Nature Chemical Engineering, a research team from the University of Toronto; www.utoronto.ca), led by mechanical and industrial engineering professor…
Premium solutions prevent seal failure caused by extreme chemical process conditions Seals and gaskets are mission-critical components in the chemical process industries (CPI), where seal failure can have catastrophic consequences. While the corrosive and aggressive media and extreme operating conditions…
Black mass is the powdered material resulting from shredding end-of-life lithium-ion vehicle batteries. For effective recycling, lithium must be efficiently separated from this material, but conventional methods, such as smelting at high temperatures or dissolving in strong acids, require large…
Field trials are expected to begin shortly for a high-temperature thermal-storage demonstrator built by AED Energy (London, U.K.; www.aedenergy.com). The field trials follow the successful completion of a test program of the demonstrator at AED’s London facility. The test program,…
In the development of new pharmaceutical ingredients and other high-purity products, carefully controlled crystallization processes can help to eliminate critical impurities and zero in on optimal formulations Historically, small molecules have played a significant role in the pharmaceutical landscape, representing…
