Sustainability has become one of the biggest concern for the industry, due to their need to maintain their reputation as well as their bottom line. On other hand the stock market is is rewarding those companies that include sustainability as one of their main strategies. This challenge is particularly important for Chemist and Oil&Gas companies. For example, chemical industry is under particular pressure because it is the foundation of sustainability in many other industries like agriculture and fertilizers, housing, plastics, and pharma.

Although the current trend in Fine and Specialty Chemistry is to gradually replace traditional semi-batch processes with Flow Chemistry processes, which are safer, cleaner, and faster, most production continues to be semi-batch. This paper is devoted to recovering the basic concepts of thermal safety of such semi-batch processes.

As the internet is exponentially permeating daily life and work, in parallel, different events of cyberattacks have been recorded. There is a huge challenge nowadays on how to deal with them in the industrial sectors, especially in those with an associated high risk on safety, environment or significant socio-economic impact (i.e. strategic energetic facilities, etc.).

The following article is a case study. We focus on the definition of different phases of a high potent product handling project under isolator. The processes to be carried out in the isolator environment will be the weighing of products, with exposure limits of 0,01 µg/m3. During the project, we will analyse the different phases that will allow us to adequately assess the risks and select the appropriate mitigation mechanisms.

This paper describes the results of the LIFE16 ENV/ES/000156 NEWEST project, which validated the use of Bewat natural coagulants derived from plant raw materials in four WWTPs in the Valencia Region, substituting the use of FeCl3 in two WWTPs with urban influent and two WWTPs with urban influent with an industrial component.

Milling is the unitarian operation that enables to reduce particle size of dry solids or dispersed in a liquid vehicle.

Flow measurement, detection and transmission of glycerin, methyl alcohol, vegetable oil, unsaturated acids and other additives for the manufacture of last generation biodiesel.

One of today’s greatest challenges for maintenance & reliability teams is to improve energy efficiency - high energy prices and global competition dictate a need to reduce energy waste and improve system efficiencies whenever possible. A major contributor to energy waste is leaks: both in compressed air systems and steam traps. Ultrasound inspection instruments can easily detect these leaks, leading to potential energy savings.

El hidrógeno es un elemento abundante en la naturaleza (en la atmósfera o el agua) que puede ser empleado como fuente de energía. Entre sus variedades, el hidrógeno verde se obtiene aislando las moléculas de hidrógeno del agua mediante la “electrolisis” que no genera emisiones de CO2.
