Intel Allocates $20 billion to Build Two New Advanced Chipmaking Factories in Ohio
Intel today announced plans for an initial investment of more than $20 billion in the construction of two new leading-edge chip factories in Ohio.
Sidus Space Expands Capacity with New Cleanroom For LizzieSat™ Constellation Production
Sidus Space, Inc. is constructing a new, state of the art cleanroom to support the production, testing and integration of the LizzieSat™ satellite constellation.
New Biomaterials Inspired by Creatures of Nature
The first attempts have launched to bio-engineer protein biomaterials like those found in mussels and tree frogs to yield similar amazing wet adhesion in sealants, coatings, glues, and medical adhesives. Crucial proteins in these animals exhibit unique behaviors and chemical reactivity, and the NYU Tandon School of Engineering researchers are creating hydrogels that borrow certain key features of those proteins: the separation of a solution into two distinct liquids in response to external stimuli, the incorporation of nonstandard amino acids, and patterning, such as the polygonal pillars seen in the toe pads of tree frogs.
Nanobio-Hybrid Organisms Use C02 To Produce Plastics & Fuels
CU Boulder researchers have developed nanobio-hybrid organisms capable of using airborne carbon dioxide and nitrogen to produce a variety of plastics and fuels, a promising first step toward low-cost carbon sequestration and eco-friendly manufacturing for chemicals.
Romaco China gains a new processing laboratory
More than 500 invited guests and customers of Romaco China and Truking recently attended the official opening of the new “Romaco China Solids Process Centre”. This high-tech laboratory on the Truking campus in Changsha is equipped with Innojet and Kilian machines.
Particle Robotic System
Taking a cue from biological cells, researchers from MIT, Columbia University, and elsewhere have developed computationally simple robots that connect in large groups to move around, transport objects, and complete other tasks.
Portable cleanroom system for contamination-free manufacturing
CAPE® is a transportable, tent-like cleanroom facility developed by researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Manufacturing Engineering and Automation IPA. It can be installed both indoors and in unexposed outdoor locations, and takes less than an hour to set up.
New Injection Molding Machine for Beta Testing
HTI Plastics recently received a new Krauss Maffei Injection molding machine for beta testing. The PX All-Electric arrived on our floor in late January. This is the second time HTI has been selected to host a Krauss machine for testing, with the option to purchase.
Ecolab Acquires Bioquell, Expanding Cleanroom Disinfection Offering
Bioquell offers a unique opportunity to broaden Ecolab’s portfolio of products, services, and solutions. Bioquell’s expertise in bio-decontamination and deep-cleaning utilizing vaporized hydrogen peroxide technologies complements Ecolab’s daily cleaning and disinfection offerings for cleanrooms and other high-grade environments.
Clean Energy Grid to Benefit Communities
The PSC filing, including a five-year capital investment overview and detailed one-year plan for 2019, sets forth the projects Ameren Missouri plans to implement to modernize energy grid infrastructure in Missouri to benefit its customers and offer them more tools to manage their energy usage.
Lasers on Silicon Offer a Glimpse into the Future
Ten years into the future — that’s about how far UC Santa Barbara electrical and computer engineering professor John Bowers and his research team are reaching with the recent development of their mode-locked quantum dot lasers on silicon. It’s technology that not only can massively increase the data transmission capacity of data centers, telecommunications companies and network hardware products to come, but do so with high stability, low noise and the energy efficiency of silicon photonics.
