Optimizing electrochemical processes is one of the challenges in developing technologies for renewable energies. New research findings could provide assistance here.

Chemical, pharmaceutical and food producers, colleges and universities all over the world use them: Wet-milling technology has been revolutionized by WAB with the development of its horizontal agitator bead mills. At this year’s Achema, the resourceful Swiss company was presenting the latest generation of its Dyno-Mill UBM (Universal Bead Mill).

Dupont has introduced its first ion exchange resin – the Dupont Amberlite P2X110 for green hydrogen production. With this, the firm aims to support the trend of decarbonization.

Anellotech’s Plas-Tcat catalytic pyrolysis technology has been used to produce the drum-quantity samples of recycled BTX made from mixed waste plastics. The samples have been developed at the firm’s Tcat-8 facility in Texas, USA.

Wood has secured a contract for front-end engineering and design as well as EPCM solutions for Europe’s largest high-purity manganese processing facility in Czech Republic. The project is part of the Chvaletice Manganese Project.

Brightmark RNG Holdings, a joint venture between Brightmark and Chevron, has plans to develop five new anaerobic digestion dairy farm projects in western Michigan, USA. This includes the Castor Project which is the firm’s second-largest renewable natural gas project till date.

Whether for the sealing of dams or as a decorative upholstery material for furniture: Plastic films as well as other plastic products from Renolit stand for maximum functionality. To ensure that this remains true in the future, the company continuously optimises its production processes. And it does this by utilising Vega sensors for level, flow and pressure.

Veolia has secured a water technology contract for the Hassyan seawater desalination plant in Dubai, UAE. The project is claimed to be the world’s second largest desalination plant based on reverse osmosis technology, and the largest desalination plant powered by solar energy.

The planning of process plants for the production of chemical and petrochemi-cal products is often complex. Precise and comprehensive scheduling is the only way to ensure that the plants are completed on time and within budget.

Featuring a range of finely tuned enhancements, a new drum coater speeds up the coating process by 30 percent — The proven GCC range now has an equal in terms of process technology: the GCSmart, which is designed to make the coating process significantly faster. An optimized nozzle arm and consistent air guidance with reduced turbulence promote reproducibility, even with minimal charging, while a WIP automatic system, integrated exhaust air chamber, and automatic discharging simplify handling for the user.
