Givaudan: leading safety in the fragrance industry
Once the artistic work of creating a fragrance is complete and the formula has been signed off, the process of extracting the raw materials and blending begins. Safety and compliance are a priority during the manufacturing process and so, when flavours and fragrances giant Givaudan wanted to strengthen itssafety critical alarm systemsat its Kent facility, it partnered with Omniflex to upgrade its fleet of annunciators.
Ending biomass funding program sets back net zero
The Government’s planned end to the Non-Domestic Renewable Heat Incentive (NDRHI) this month will leave manufacturers without a financially viable green alternative to generate heat for many crucial industrial processes. This could force businesses to seek out cheaper, non-renewable sources of energy. Here Luke Worrall, Business Development Manager atNerG, explains why this move will harm the UK’s efforts to reach net zero carbon emis...
H2GEAR to develop hydrogen propulsion system
GKN Aerospace has announced that it will lead a UK collaboration programme, called H2GEAR, to develop the company’s first hydrogen propulsion system for sub-regional aircraft. Hydrogen is expected to play a key role in the decarbonisation strategy of aviation as it can power aircraft efficiently, leaving water as the only by-product.
Hydrogen fuel cell powers drone humanitarian missions
Doosan Mobility Innovation (DMI) has delivered humanitarian relief to remote locations using drones powered by its innovative energy-dense hydrogen fuel cells. With two hours of flight time, the drones have transported masks and emergency supplies between US Virgin Islands and have delivered medical AEDs to the top of Mt. Hallasan (6,388 ft), the tallest mountain in South Korea located on Jeju Island.
A green recovery powered by digital and electric
We are at a critical juncture. It’s now clear to most people in the world that our planet is in decline as a direct result of human activity. If we don’t act now and act quickly, the planet and all life as we know it will be irreversibly damaged by rising temperatures. By Philippe Delorme,Executive Vice President of Energy Management at Schneider Electric
What will life be like in 100 years?
Technological innovation seems to speed up every year. If you go back far enough, then quality of life didn’t change very much from one century to the next, and before the industrial revolution, neither did technology. Now though, the human race is going at light speed, and it’s hard to predict what will happen over the next decade, let alone the next 100 years; but with a pinch of salt in mind, what might be waiting for us around the...
Consider the potential of e-fuels
Growth in global energy consumption has caused CO2 and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to rise, in turn causing an increase in average global temperatures. The combustion of fossil fuels including coal, oil, and natural gas, has been a key driver behind this, providing the underlying driver for the production and use of non-fossil alternative fuels that can help reduce emissions.
Let’s not get lost on the road to Net Zero
As the world stands at a climate change crossroad, the only possible route to follow appears to be towards Net Zero. But this doesn’t mean the path is without its bumps. Here, Mats W Lundberg Head of Sustainability atSandvik, delves deeper into industry’s Net Zero journey.
50V, 400V and 500V programmable power supplies for EVs
TDK Corporation has announced the introduction of 50V, 400V and 500V output models to the TDK-Lambda GENESYS+ series of programmable power supplies. With output power levels of 5kW, 10kW and 15kW in 1U, 2U and 3U high 19” rack-mount packages, the new G50, G400, G500, GSP50, GSP400 and GSP500 models are fully compatible with the current series.
Collaboration for fuel cell propulsion system
Blue World Technologies has announced an agreement to collaborate with Karma Automotive to explore the viability of a fuel cell system to provide primary propulsion power for a variety of future passenger and light commercial vehicles. Fuel cells enable fast refueling and extremely long driving ranges, and with zero harmful emissions provide a green alternative to the internal combustion engine.
