Plants own several thousands of substances with diverse functions. Those compounds are divided in different groups, including primary metabolites, as sugars…
New technical solution to manage targeted communication between team members and to minimize noise in the operating theatre. This reduces stress for the operating staff and concomitantly mistakes. We offer the Silent Operating Theatre Optimisation System – “SOTOS”. Prototype tested and available.
The most spectacular meteorite find to hit Switzerland documents a significant fall event in Europe: a huge meteorite strewn field near Twann in the Canton of…
The Institute of Combustion and Power Plant Technology (IFK) of the University of Stuttgart has developed a measuring device for use in coal power plants. The device allows for permanent monitoring of the conditions inside the boiler, particularly of soot deposition.
Besides determining the deposition rate inside the boiler, growth characteristics, adhesion, ash qualities and waste disposal behavior with deposit as well as the extent to which these can be cleaned using soot blowers can be judged. Thus, the measuring device can indicate potential for optimization, e.g. of coal compositon in the fuel feed.
The prototype has been tested successfully.
The new method allows high laser intensities of any level. Thus, the novel backscattering sources generate X and Gamma-radiation with highest brilliance and intensity and low bandwidth.
“We've looked for the usual suspects in the usual places and found no solid signals, so we've started searching in some creative new ways,” said Julie McEnery,…
