For more than four decades, biosolids have been applied to land and studied by researchers for many useful purposes- MADISON, Wis.. Biosolids are a product of the wastewater treatment process. Yes, that means sewage. However, the sewage is treated carefully to ensure it has beneficial properties and is not harmful. Biosolids are produced by separating
Thermal and thermomechanical analysis are essential in the characterization and study of modern polymer materials. This handbook shows how thermal analysis techniques may be used to study the behaviour of thermoplastics, thermosets and elastomers to provide data on physical properties, transitions, aging, the effect of fillers and additives, and the effect of production techniques.
Pietro Barabaschi, who will take over as director-general of ITER in October, plans to improve integration between collaborating agencies. Barabaschi is currently acting director of Fusion for Energy, the organization responsible for Europe’s ITER contribution, and will take over as ITER’s director general in October. He replaces Eisuke Tada, who has served as interim director-general
Today’s nuclear power infrastructure was born out of the French government’s efforts in the 1950s and 1960s to develop a nuclear bomb during the cold war, and so a lot of resources were poured into nuclear research. That created the expertise, then in the 1970s the oil-price shock turned attentions towards nuclear-power development. Countries began
No other country produces more nuclear power per capita. But climate change, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and French politics could change that. Around 70% of French electricity is derived from the splitting of atoms, and no other country produces more nuclear power per capita. More than a means of keeping the lights on, France’s prowess
Porous aluminum is produced by casting with salt. This technology provides a unique structure of porous metal. The structure of porous aluminum and the structure of known sintered metals are complementary. The pores in the sintered metal correspond to those in the porous aluminum and vice versa. Theoretically, the minimum porosity of sintered metals is
A new peak for output comes amid a squeeze on gas, hydropower and nuclear supplies Solar power generation reached a new record in the EU over the summer months as supplies from gas, hydropower and nuclear were all squeezed during the energy crisis. Sunny weather across the continent and a boost in solar installations contributed
The energy crisis in Euro draws more attention. Civil utilization of power and heating in winter calls for more efficient solution for heat recovery systems. Heat pump and heat exchanger unit are applied in the new advanced heating system to achieve thermal efficiency over long-distance transmission. The plate heat exchanger operates in high-pressure working conditions

This week, HFM service engineers went to do the plate heat exchanger service for vessel MSC Eloise on board. There are three AX30 units, which were made in 1990. Those units are operated as lube oil cooler and central cooling cooler. The last time of service was many years ago. This vessel needs complete maintenance
