Industrial hemp and its cannabidiol (CBD) derivatives have pushed to double-digit growth rates in the last few years, bringing with it substantial growing pains.

Just as much as New Year’s Eve is a time of new resolutions and beginnings, the end of a year is a time to look back. 

TechniSwitch TS-NJ offers an alternative to vacuum-jacketed tank switchers for industrial cryogenic applications.

The basic difference between mechanical cooling and cryogenic cooling is that mechanical cooling systems use a closed-loop system that recovers and reuses the coolant. Traditional cryogenic cooling systems use an open system that expels the spent vapor into the atmosphere.

Today, everything from household products to complex industrial parts is recycled, and the use of recycled materials in the manufacturing sector continues to increase due to environmental and economic benefits.

For more than a half century, liquid nitrogen has been used to freeze and chill food products.

A team of researchers has discovered a way to cool electrons to -378.4°F (-228°C) without external means and at room temperature — an advancement that could enable electronic devices to function with very little energy.

Rigid vacuum-insulated pipe is maintenance free and warranted for 10 years, and the thermal performance of Techniguard R-Series can save enough liquid nitrogen to provide payback in less than a year.

Particle size reduction can present challenges to industrial processors, particularly when working with heat-sensitive and tough-to-mill materials.
