Seamless location and documentation of fugitive gas emissions
Electrochemical processes like water electrolysis will become increasingly important in the future in light of climate change and the resultant need for an energy and raw materials transition. The Fraunhofer Institute for Microengineering and Microsystems IMM is collaborating with hte GmbH to develop modular electrochemical cells. These flow cells are used in screening tasks, thereby helping optimize electrochemical production processes, such as water electrolysis.

With a modern office building, the company is preparing for the future of its Liquid Analysis branch.
Enhanced sensitivity to fulfil tighter international regulation
POWTECH, the International Processing Trade Fair for Powder, Bulk Solids, Fluids and Liquids, is expanding its importance as the technology platform for the processing sector, and will in future operate under a new branding as POWTECH TECHNOPHARM.
German Fraunhofer researchers have developed an extremely heat-resistant ceramic-based ink. For the first time, this enables metal components processed in the automotive industry at temperatures over 1,000 °C to be marked with a code. This opens up wide-ranging possibilities for designing process chains in the industry more efficiently and reducing their carbon footprint significantly.
Designs for high or low temperature/pressure applications with a wide range of accessories and options
The new lab, in cooperation with IT security specialist genua, brings state-of-the-art OT security solutions within reach
When older equipment starts to affect the output from the power plant – operators need to act fast, to avoid production risks escalating. This is especially true for legacy pumps. However, sourcing new units to fit the surrounding infrastructure and application requirements of the plant can be challenging.
New water treatment systems expand the product portfolio to include an essential element of the production and use of hydrogen.
For accurate measurement and data logging in mobile service applications
The quality of manufactured or processed products at cleanroom facilities are protected by applicable good manufacturing practices (GMP) that specify stringent environmental monitoring requirements.
Avelino Corma Canós is being recognised on 4 July in Valencia for his work on synthetic catalysts to improve chemical reactions. His inventions are used today in the energy, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries among others. Corma is the inventor or co-inventor behind nearly 200 European patent applications and co-founded the Institute of Chemical Technology (ITQ), a joint centre from the Universitat Politècnica de València and the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC).
Resolve Optics has installed and commissioned a new vibration test centre adding to the suite of in-house lens testing equipment the company is able to offer.

The green transition demands efficient storage of renewable energy, to which end a number of Power-to-X plants are under construction in Denmark. They are designed to convert green electricity to another form of energy.
Cocoa plays an important role in Brazilian agriculture. However, the fruit of the cacao tree (cocoa pods) is prone to fungal diseases. pest infestations are responsible for crop losses of up to 40 percent worldwide. In collaboration with the State University of Campinas (Unicamp), Brazil, researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV are looking to establish new ways of using damaged cocoa pods as part of the Damaged Beans project.
High efficient and low wear dry pumps
As an innovative technology leader, JUMO has been supplying high-quality measurement and automation technology for the food industry for decades. So it was an obvious idea to have our own anniversary beer created for the 75th anniversary in 2023. In the brewing process, all relevant JUMO products that are supplied to the brewing industry were to be combined in one application. The choice therefore fell on an in-house, modern, and highly efficient brewery plant.
PCN Europe interviewed Rob Watkinson, Customer Support Manager at Resolve Optics about the design for optics able to withstand the high levels of radiation found in and around nuclear plants.
The innovative data science tool, MELSOFT MaiLab (Mitsubishi Electric AI Laboratory) helps companies drive productivity improvements on manufacturing lines. The new solution offers an intuitive, operator-centric platform that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to automatically optimise operations while maximising equipment monitoring, visibility and diagnostics.
Whereas in the past only one category of product was usually run on aseptic lines, bottlers of sensitive beverages now face an ever-growing demand for flexibility. Beverage producers who process both aseptically filled beverages and juice and carbonated soft drinks need to use 38-millimeter bottle necks for the former and containers with 28-millimeter openings for the latter. If the bottle neck is to be changed on a PET line, however, to date a comparatively large amount of effort was required to convert the stretch blow molder in particular.
