Hydrogen – a Market with Potential
Linde intends to further expand its hydrogen business by investing in electrolysis capacities and infrastructure.
Webinar Series on the Digital Transformation in the Process Industry
The pressure to reduce costs and to improve production efficiency is increasing during the corona crisis. Digitalization offers corresponding levers here, but the mid-sized process industry in particular is not yet able to implement them profitably.
Expert Webinar: Accelerating Process Development with Design of Experiments
Synthace’s multidisciplinary team of researchers and software engineers have developed the Antha software platform to lower the barriers for scientists to execute sophisticated experiments with automated laboratory equipment.
Upcycling of Post-Consumer PLA Waste
Designed for their performance and durability, synthetic plastics have become indispensable as “materials of every-day use”. However, their characteristic long life span and indiscriminate disposal have led to an acute problem of plastic pollution. In order to address this issue, the European Union is not only trying to adopt a circular system to reuse, repair and recycle plastics (circular economy) but it also aims to produce plastics out of renewable resources (biobased plastics).
Line Products as a Growth Market
The WeylChem Group of companies consists of seven operating and two R&D sites in Europe and the USA as well as the global sales and marketing platform, WeylChem International.
Circular Economy
The chemical industry is on the threshold of a new era – the age of circularity. We asked industry experts to share their opinions on this transformational topic.
Reshaping Adhesion - and the Industry
Hybrid assemblies, joints of dissimilar materials, are everywhere - in our smartphones, cars, TVs, dishwashers, in planes and so on. However, in modern products we increasingly rely on plastics, which are intrinsically hard to bond to other types of material — and by using industrial glue for the bonding the parts cannot be recycled easily. Solving this monumental challenge inspired the foundation of the Danish start-up company RadiSurf five years ago.
Contributing to the Circular Economy
Cellugy was founded two years ago by a diverse team of young academics and professionals from Spain, Indonesia, Albania, and Denmark. Working together at Aarhus University in Denmark, the idea of developing a material based on nanocellulose as an alternative to plastic barrier coatings arose and grew into a start-up and a first product. Co-founders Isabel Alvarez-Martos and Deby Fapyane talk about their motivation and vision.
Creating the AI-Powered Future of Chemistry
Molecule.one leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to design novel chemical syntheses. As a response to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Polish start-up based in Warsaw has set out on the mission to accelerate the process of creating medicines.
Predictive Fluid Modelling
Virtual Prototyping of Complex Fluids and Flowing Materials
Predictive Logistics Era is Happening Right Now
Change is happening this very minute in the logistics industry. Why? Quite simply, because shippers are under enormous pressure from their customers to provide accurate real-time visibility data on shipments from pick-up to delivery.
High Level Chemical Logistics
As an independent system of uniform third party assessments, SQAS — Safety and Quality Assessment System —was initiated to evaluate the performance of logistics service providers and chemical distributors.
Transition to Circular Economy: No Time to Stand Still
The shift to a circular economy requires intensive cooperation along the chemical value chain and across industries.
Virtual Industrial Services
In order to protect both their own employees and those of their service providers, many industrial plant operators are currently limiting access to their facilities.
Consolidation, Risk Reduction and Demand Shift
Like most industries, the global chemical industry is currently strongly affected by the outbreak of Covid-19.
