At this year Ifat-Fair, Vega will demonstrate how modern level and pressure measurement technology helps keep processes consistently stable and efficient. Interactive demonstrations will showcase the performance of the sensors under realistic operating conditions.

Edwards’ vacuum pumps help support heat pipe cooling solutions that not only keeps systems operating safely but also helps reduce energy consumption and dependence on traditional cooling infrastructure.

The use of Artificial Intelligence in the wastewater and water treatment industry is picking up pace due to the numerous advantages of this technology. Ahlam Rais connects with two major players from the sector to understand the benefits, challenges and how the AI technology is gradually transforming wastewater and water treatment plants.

John Crane has introduced a next generation mechanical seal called Type 8628VL. The mechanical seal has been engineered to maintain sealing integrity in multiphase ethane and ethylene pipelines within the oil and gas industry.

On IFAT 2026 Shimadzu presents a unified approach to environmental and water testing that prioritises automation, ease of use and uptime to help laboratories make faster, better‑supported decisions.

Matheson Tri-Gas has awarded a significant contract to Nikkiso Clean Energy & Industrial Gases Group to develop an air separation unit in Las Vegas, Nevada. The new project is expected to produce oxygen, nitrogen, and argon in order to meet the increasing demand for liquid gases in the medical, fabrication, construction, and food processing industries across Nevada, California, Utah, and Arizona.

Corrosion, broken springs, and unstable operating conditions: A centrifugal pump has repeatedly failed at a chemical production facility at Dow Chemical. It was only the targeted use of sensors on the mechanical seal and structured data analysis that finally brought clarity — and ensured that the pump and production were running stably again.

The German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action has approved funding to BASF for developing the world’s largest industrial heat pump for CO2-free steam generation at its Ludwigshafen site in Germany. The heat pump is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 98 % at the site.

Plastindia makes New Delhi the center of the plastics world on the subcontinent in February – and for the first time since the acquisition of Sikora, Maag is present on-site together with its new subsidiary.

Air Liquide has plans to build, own and operate two new industrial gas production units in Hiroshima, Japan under a long-term agreement. The facilities will aim to provide the industrial gases essential to produce next generation AI chips.
