Collect and destroy emissions safely

Article Abstract:

The chemical process industry installs the vent collection and destruction systems (VCDs) in their plants to reduce emission of volatile compounds in the atmosphere, which is proving to be a detriment to the process safety as well as higher capital and operating costs. Some problems commonly encountered with the safety and design of VCDS is reported.

Near-term fruits of Nanofabrication

Article Abstract:

New methodology is being developed for improving efficiency in nanofabrication procedures. The process currently used is complex and time consuming. The new "chain growth" method developed by researchers at Carnegie Mellon Univ. (Pittsburgh, PA) help eliminate six steps in the manufacture of nanowire sheets.
