Not-from-concentrate (NFC) juices – and orange juice in particular – continue to grow in popularity, with global transport dominated by frozen juice to maintain quality and freshness. The standard lined 200 litre drums used are convenient and easy to handle, but extracting, breaking up and melting the frozen juice is not always easy or straight forward.The HRS I Series consists of two different ...
The complete confined space entry system is the integrated arrangement that supports entry, fall arrest, retrieval, and rescue for a specific space. It is not simply the structure over the opening. In distribution, the first product request is often incomplete. A customer may ask for a confined space tripod, but the actual application may require a tripod plus a retrieval device, a full body ...
Typically, disposing of DAF sludge has been viewed as a problem, but treatment with anaerobic digestion makes it an asset.From Waste Stream to Energy SourceDAF sludge is rich in organic material, consolidating fats, oils, grease, and proteins into a sludge stream with high biodegradable content. Rather than sending this waste to landfill, facilities can leverage biological treatment to recover ...
India’s Directorate General of Shipping has introduced mandatory CCTV on Indian-flagged vessels over 500 gross tonnes and certain foreign-flagged ships operating along the Indian coast. In February 2025, the regulator set out that existing ships have 36 months from February 2025, or by the next renewal survey, whichever occurs later; new vessels must comply on delivery. The rules require ...
For food and beverage manufacturers, nutrient removal from wastewater is a critical compliance and cost-management issue in addition to environmental sustainability concerns.Nutrient Discharge Is Becoming a Bigger IssueNitrogen and phosphorus are commonly found in food and beverage wastewater. Waste streams from breweries, dairy beverage processors, and other facilities can contain high ...
GEOWEB geocells enable value engineered solutions across erosion control, slope stabilization, water management, and load distribution for transportation, energy, and environmental projects. This guidance highlights key design principles, typical applications, and practical considerations for senior practitioners evaluating geosynthetic containment and confinement solutions. GEOWEB Geocells for ...
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) occupy a central role in the development of innovative nucleic acid–based therapies. Used as vectors to deliver therapeutic molecules into cells, LNPs are a critical driver across vaccination, oncology, and gene therapy. Their development remains technically demanding and resource-intensive.Drawing on more than 45 years of lipid research, Cayman has introduced the ...
Europe has the potential to expand biogas-derived biomethane substantially. A Guidehouse study for the European Biogas Association indicates that by 2030 biomethane production could reach 34-35 bcm, with the potential to almost quadruple to 116-132 bcm by 2040 given appropriate policy support and infrastructure.Current biogas production across Europe stands at roughly 22 bcm, including about 5 ...
Source water protection is the practice of managing reservoir and intake quality before water reaches the treatment facility. For utilities dealing with harmful algal blooms (HABs), cyanotoxins, and seasonal taste and odor events, it is often one of the most cost-effective approaches available. Prevention at the source reduces how much end-of-pipe treatment has to do. Every liter of drinking ...
Aganova strengthens its position in Spain as a leading provider of in-service pipeline inspection technologies for major water infrastructure. The project will support smarter and more sustainable water management across Catalonia. Aganova, a global leader in leak detection and water loss management solutions, has been awarded a strategic contract by ATL (Ens d’Abastament ...

The Battery Research Center of Green Energy (BRCGE) at Ming Chi University of Technology (MCUT) in Taiwan leads energy storage innovation in high voltage, high safety chemistries. The center advances sustainable material recycling, advanced interface engineering, and high-safety electrolyte systems through targeted cathode, electrolyte, and separator architectures.A critical validation tool is ...
Waste handling in many facilities has traditionally involved collecting trash from multiple areas, transporting it across hallways and interior spaces, staging it in back rooms, and finally moving it to exterior dumpsters or compactors. This approach places significant operational strain on staff and can impact sanitation, odors, and facility appearance. In healthcare facilities, hotels, ...
During a major international soccer tournament, Bertin Nuclear deployed its environmental radiological monitoring system to ensure continuous surveillance of event sites, addressing the rare but real risk of radiological threats. The IAEA actively encourages host countries to deploy radiological detection and monitoring capabilities.At the heart of the system is the GammaTRACER XL2 probe, a ...
Rising climate expectations are pushing waste-management operators to identify where emissions originate and where reductions yield the greatest impact. The industry discussion centers on whether common standards for emissions management can be established across waste-management machinery. ESG Specialist Essi Sarja outlines Tana's approach to emissions management through continuous development, ...

The downstream petrochemical sector treats flare stacks as both a critical safety valve and a high-stakes compliance target. Under EPA CAM mandates, refineries must provide continuous, empirical verification that their emission control systems achieve their destruction efficiency. Traditional monitoring methods such as thermocouples and inferential flow calculations are prone to mechanical ...

Executive summary: A premium cooled OGI camera's higher upfront cost is offset by rapid leak detection ROI through product recovery, tax mitigation, and uptime. This article outlines the financial logic and key metrics for decision-makers in LDAR programs.Cost and value drivers behind premium OGI camerasThe primary cost driver is a cooled MWIR detector (InSb or SLS) with a Stirling cryocooler ...

Dissolved gas analysis is a critical component of volcanic groundwater monitoring. By evaluating gas, liquid and soil samples on-site or in the laboratory, operators can identify volatile signatures tied to active systems. Beyond the principal volcanic gases and sulfur species, dissolved-gas measurements capture rare gases and isotope information such as helium (He), neon (Ne) and argon (Ar), ...
In June 2026 a peer-reviewed article in AWWA Opflow documents sedimentation-basin algae control using an LG Sonic ultrasonic system at Central Alabama Water's Shades Mountain Filter Plant in Birmingham, Alabama. The system was installed in April 2024. After roughly one year, the seasonal filamentous algae along the basin perimeter largely disappeared. The authors characterize the technology as ...
The decision by the Alkimos Seawater Alliance to incorporate a groundwater treatment plant into the design of the Alkimos Seawater Desalination Plant in Western Australia is leading to safer, more sustainable drinking water. ACCIONA, as Lead Constructor, is working with Water Corporation and Jacobs to deliver the Alkimos facility, which is the first desalination plant of this scale in Western ...
Perception-driven fullness leads to unnecessary hauls and higher waste handling costs. In many operations, containers are deemed full when the lid appears near capacity or material is visible at the top. However, uneven loading, trapped air, or material bridging can create the impression of capacity even when significant usable volume remains. Distinctions between perceived and actual fullness ...
