Pfeiffer Vacuum has introduced the new advanced Hipace 80 Neo – the world's first laser-balanced turbopump in its class. The solution offers improved durability and lower vibration as well as noise emissions.

The requirements for pumps are clear: A safe, efficient and reliable performance — An yet, corrosive media provides a tough challenge for the versatile machines. Can engineers only choose between wear and energy loss? Lined magnetic drive pumps could change the way we handle fluidics.

The Bahr El Baqar wastewater treatment project has three Guinness World Records to its name – the largest water treatment plant in the world, the largest sludge treatment plant and the largest single-operator ozone generating plant. Situated in the Sinai Peninsula, Egypt, the project is changing the dynamics of the country which is suffering from a water-crisis.

The Hiscroll series from Pfeiffer Vacuum consists of three dry and hermetically sealed scroll pumps with a nominal pumping speed of 6 – 20 m³/h. These vacuum pumps are characterized not only by their high performance when evacuating against atmosphere but also by their high energy efficiency that reduces their carbon footprint, the company states.

A collaboration between the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (Oist) and the Polytechnic University of Milan has found that when a fluid is pumped through a pipe in an intermittent way, the cost of transport is significantly reduced.

The pharmaceutical industry is changing rapidly and so are the equipment used in the production space. Robots are being constantly updated with new and advanced features to deliver contamination-free and high-quality drugs quickly and efficiently to the end consumer.

The increasing demand for industrial pumps in China has led Netzsch Pumps & Systems to relocate to a new site in order to expand its production capacity. The site is located on the Dinglian Industrial Park, one of the five state-approved industrial parks in the Lanzhou New and High-tech Industrial Development Zone.

The separation of liquid phases is the supreme discipline for centrifuges. Continuous processes and modular concepts bring more efficiency to extraction and separation and also give digitalization a boost.

Gerhard Schubert will be presenting a wide range of packaging solutions at the upcoming trade fair of interpack 2023. Some of its most recent innovations include cobots for the rapid feeding of different packaging components on a line, an extremely compact filling machine for cosmetic products and an entirely new, efficient, resource-saving feeding system for carton blanks.

Hydrocarbon producers face mounting pressure to become climate resilient, reduce carbon emissions, and focus on revenue streams from renewables. To alleviate this pressure, power generation organizations need to embrace renewable alternatives, and while some companies have become early adopters, many operators are looking at substantial changes to their business models to accommodate the transition.
