Exxon Mobil and Global Thermostat have entered into a joint development agreement to advance breakthrough technology that can capture and concentrate carbon dioxide emissions from industrial sources. The move is aimed at developing lower-emissions solutions to mitigate the risks of climate change.

Biomass – more than just a fuel for power generation: It carries the hope to be usable for an ever–increasing number of chemical intermediates and finished products. Let's take a look at the challenges that the biomass conversion, bioplastics and renewable feedstock poses for plant engineering...

For the industrial production of pure oxides such as iron oxide, alumina or magnesia as well as for mixed oxide products, the thermal chlorides decomposition in hydrochloric solutions has gained world wide importance. Typical, these processes use spray roasting in gas fired reactors to supply raw materials for the ferrite industry, pigments and heat resistant refractories and different types of special ceramics.

Evaluating (and minimizing) water hammer in a liquid sampling system — A common yet often unidentified problem poses a significant threat to any liquid sampling system. It is called water hammer, and it may be lurking in a system, ready to wreak havoc on fluid system components. How to mitigate water hammer?

How production plants could save up to 134 PJ per year — Your production process may be up to the energy efficiency task — but what about your waste heat? Discover how heat recovery systems and economizers can turn exhaust heat into usable energy ...

Natural gas can travel through thousands of miles of pipeline. In order to avoid pressure reductions and the resulting slowdowns caused by distance, friction, and elevation, natural gas must be pressurised. Compressors placed at key intervals keep the natural gas moving evenly and reliably. These compressors are generally grouped in stations, which are strategically located along the pipeline networks that transport and store the gas.

The main demand drivers behind this market scenario are the strong demand from Asian countries and further development of the international gas trade, according to the international Energy Agency (IEA).

Inpro/Seal has announced its latest AM Solutions design – the AM Cema shaft seal which has been developed specifically for Cema (Conveyor Equipment Manufacturers Association) Screw Conveyors.

Air Liquide is further expanding its footprint in Brazil, establishing a new licensing agreement with Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. (Petrobras) in conjunction with its recently awarded contract to Foster Wheeler for a world-scale grassroots gas-to-chemicals complex in Linhares, Espirito Santo State, South-East Brazil, called Complexo Gás-Químico UFN-IV.
