Bringing Ethernet to the field in process plants
AIMPLAS coordinated the European LIFE ECOMETHYLAL Project, which has ended with the construction of a plant capable of extracting up to half a kilo of methylal from each kilo of non-recyclable waste. Methylal can be used as a solvent and as a raw material to produce new plastics. The project focused on recovering waste, mainly from the automotive, electrical and electronic, and packaging sectors, by means of chemical recycling.
New center includes all levels from ideation to hardware and software design, development, and testing
The facility is part of a complex dedicated to test various industrial hydrogen applications contributing to reduce carbon emissions in metal production
Intelligent service planning tool for assessment of operational fitness
The German AMA Association for Sensor and Measurement Technology (AMA) awarded the AMA Innovation Award 2021 to two nominated teams. Due to the pandemic, the award winners were chosen digitally on May 3, 2021.
Contribution to recycling of plastic waste and to increased use of renewable raw materials
30 years of tradition in chemical and pharmaceutical solids handling allow CO.RA. to guarantee its products based on strict norms. Design and development and manufacturing of products are based in Italy and a qualified service team supports customers worldwide, on-site and remotely.
While the wheels of industry need to keep turning to produce the everyday items that we take for granted, there is a growing realization that this cannot be done at the continuing expense of the environment.
Autumn is the right time for the annual flu vaccination – at least in the northern hemisphere. South of the Equator, populations are vaccinated in the spring. Twice a year, pharmaceutical manufacturers need to produce millions of vaccine doses in a short time to meet demand for the protective drugs. An internationally active supplier relies on Schubert-Pharma to package its syringes containing the vaccine.

First-time demonstration of novel production technology co-developed by OMV and BASF for highest isobutene quality and maximum energy efficiency
Global data volumes are growing exponentially as a result of digitization. More and more industrial processes are being monitored, analyzed, and automated using sensors. The new JUMO Cloud and the JUMO smartWARE SCADA make an important contribution to the development of the intelligent factory of the future.
The increasing variety and complexity of parenteral drugs calls for new dimensions in quality assurance. Fully automated inspection technology with a combination of visual inspection and container closure integrity testing (CCIT) offers the highest product and hence patient safety. Pharmaceutical manufacturer CDM Lavoisier decided to change their inspection processes for no less than 30 products in four different packaging formats. They are now all inspected on the new AIM 3000 from Syntegon.
tofmotion GmbH participates in the LIGATE project funded by the European research and innovation program HORIZON 2020. The private-public consortium aims to strengthen the use of high-performance computing for the drug development process.
As the importance of reducing CO2 emissions continues to increase, companies are developing new technologies that will enable this on an industrial scale. In the case of C-Capture, perfecting the carbon capture process requires precise solvent control.
Bühler and Vyncke form strategic partnership to offer low-carbon-emissions food plants
Just like cellulose, lignin and fats, proteins are renewable raw materials. Their potential for the chemical industry remains largely untapped. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV want to change that.
Adjustable from 0.5 to 45 bar in brass or stainless steel
Intelligent feed silos on the farm, communicative waste containers in the city and mobile containers that “communicate” how full they are: The use of smart radar sensors VEGAPULS Air helps to optimise supply processes and save resources.

Tightening climate targets in Finland and the EU are forcing industry to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Switching to electricity to replace fossil fuels is a growing trend in industry. VTT is developing electrically heated reactor technology that could significantly reduce emissions from the chemical industry.
Restrictions relating to the pandemic are currently affecting all economic sectors and no one knows how long this will last. But one thing is certain: production processes must continue or restart, and interrupted new projects must be resumed as soon as possible.
