MAIRE (Milan, Italy; www.groupmaire.com) announced today that TECNIMONT (Integrated E&C Solutions) and Baker Hughes (Houston, Tex.; www.bakerhughes.com), an energy technology company, have signed a non-exclusive memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore cooperation opportunities on prospective modularized, scalable liquefied natural gas…
The latest addition to the Rotoform flagship chemical-solidification technology range is the Rotoform XG, a high-capacity pastillation system for fertilizer finishing. Designed for applications such as sulfur bentonite and urea mixes, as well as NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) and…
In late December 2025, a system that uses electric fields — rather than mechanical means — to generate nanometer-sized gas bubbles entered operation at a commercial site in Saudi Arabia. The nanobubble-generating technology was developed by the startup company AquaB…
The chemical and physical properties of some solid materials render them prone to restricted flow and flow stoppages when discharging from bins and hoppers. This one-page reference outlines common solids-flow problems, as well as strategies and devices that can aid…
Variable-frequency drives designed for ease-of-use The EZ VFD® family of variable-frequency drives (photo) for¼- to 2-horsepower (hp) applications are feature-rich models designed for ease of installation and usage. They are plug-and-play for most applications and include easily adjusted trimpots for…
Compliance in the chemical process industry (CPI) has become an increasingly complex endeavor, but artificial intelligence (AI) promises to help effectively navigate modern regulatory landscapes When it comes to compliance and safety in the chemical process industries (CPI), product stewardship,…
A new structural material builds upon the promise of enzyme-enhanced CO2 mineralization to overcome decarbonization challenges in the construction industry. Researchers from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI; Worcester, Mass.; www.wpi.edu), led by Nima Rahbar, head of WPI’s Department of Civil, Environmental…
Post-consumer absorbent hygiene products (AHPs), such as infant diapers, feminine hygiene products and adult incontinence products, present unique challenges for recycling, because they contain compound materials like superabsorbent polymers and non-woven fabrics, as well as bio-hazardous waste, which are difficult…
Ammonia manufacturing with carbon capture (blue ammonia) has emerged as the most practical near-term option for deep decarbonization of ammonia production. Evaluated here are eight technology configurations for decarbonization strategies with blue ammonia production Ammonia is increasingly viewed as an…
A PFAS-remediation project using sustainably manufactured granulated activated carbon for drinking water demonstrates how PFAS adsorption performance can be combined with reduced costs and environmental impact As thousands of public water systems across the country make plans to reduce per-…
