For the first time, the Nobel Sustainability Trust (NST) and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) are presenting an award for outstanding research and development work in the fields of sustainable energy and climate change economics. The first two honorees of the "Sustainability Award supported by NST" are Prof. Elena Bou of EIT InnoEnergy for her contributions to promoting energy start-ups, and Lord Nicholas Stern, Professor at the London School of Economics and Political Science, for his achievements relating to the economic aspects of climate change.
Before purchasing something new, it is worthwhile to take a look at the stock and think about possible reuse and upgrading, as this example shows.
Port of Rotterdam and Yokogawa kick off feasibility study for optimization of efficient energy use
Mechanical bearings and gearboxes — like those used in electric vehicles and wind farms — are often treated with lubricants to avoid friction and wear. The voltage the components might be under impairs the effectiveness of the lubricants to such a degree that the tribological contacts are damaged. As part of the Lube.Life joint research project, researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials IWM have developed a virtual lubricant lab, which can be used to predict the effects of electrical fields on lubricant stability.
Long Ridge Energy is one of the world’s first power plant operators to blend hydrogen with natural gas at scale. Measurement technology plays a critical role in paving the way for the decarbonization of the energy industry.
The use of conventional analysis equipment in hazardous areas is complicated due to a lack of approvals. Equipment without ATEX or IECEx certification must be specially protected so that it does not act as an ignition source. At the same time, analysis equipment is essential for many processes. For example, for testing the purity of hydrogen at hydrogen refuelling stations.
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.
What does an ambitious contract manufacturer need when customers wish to expand their orders? Exactly, new equipment! The Malmö-based Swedish company Rechon has been a reliable partner to many pharmaceutical producers for decades, from clinical trials through to commercial production. The current trend towards cartridge filling is a good reason for Rechon to continue the successful relationship with Syntegon.
Valmet entered into an agreement on July 14, 2023, to acquire the Process Gas Chromatography business of Siemens AG. The value of the acquisition is EUR 102.5 million on a cash and debt-free basis subject to customary adjustments.
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.
Felix Kleinert will leave the pump manufacturer after 24 years on June 30, Andreas Denker will take over position as CEO after transition phase.
Ammonia could play a decisive role in the transition from fossil fuels to climate-friendly alternatives if produced from green hydrogen. Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Microengineering and Microsystems IMM are developing ammonia-based systems for a mobile, decentralized energy supply in the infrastructure, transportation and industry sectors.
We spoke with Hubertus von Monschaw, Global Director HANNOVER MESSE at Deutsche Messe AG about HANNOVER MESSE 2023 in a challenging environment
As productivity demands on operators increase, pumps across industry need to adapt to meet new application challenges. In response, Sulzer is launching OEM-X line – a 24/7 quality pump service with flexible repair and retrofit solutions for any pump brand.
The list of challenges facing industry is long, in Europe and all over the world: climate change, energy shortages, disrupted supply chains and a shortage of skilled labor.

Methanol reformers convert easy-to-transport methanol into hydrogen. But conventional reformers still come with a number of drawbacks – catalyst attrition, to name but one example. An innovative methanol reformer for mobile applications from the Fraunhofer Institute for Microengineering and Microsystems IMM is able to overcome these challenges.

Around three years ago, EBRO ARMATUREN worked closely with its customers to develop a butterfly valve adapted specifically to the requirements of the chemicals industry. A prototype has already been deployed in the food and beverage sector, including at Schneider Weisse. Besides the FDA compliance required with regard to food and pharmaceutical technology, resistance to chemically aggressive media...
Wilo and Schneider Electric Partner to reach the goals Wilo want to achive in the next years.
In Germany, 55 percent of final energy consumption goes towards heating and cooling. However, a lot of heat dissipates unused because it is not generated as and when required. Thermal storage using zeolite material allows heat to be stored for long periods of time without losing any. Fraunhofer researchers are now working on significantly improving the thermal conductivity of zeolites.
He will follow as successor to Glenn Schulz who will retire from this position at the end of the year.
