Engineers have just demonstrated a promising new family of materials for storing flammable gases such as acetylene. These materials are nanoporous and flexible and can be modified to improve the ...

Flammable gas leaks continue to pose a real threat to workers and assets across the process industry. Gas and flame detection provide an early warning against this risk. But no single detection ...

Many industries operate in hazardous environments, including oil and gas, mining, refineries, utilities, shipping, construction and others where exposure to harmful gases is common. Detecting gas ...

Spark explosions are a significant hazard in various industrial settings, often resulting from igniting flammable gases, vapors, dust, or fibers. These explosions can lead to substantial property ...

Pyrophoric materials are substances that ignite instantly upon exposure to oxygen. They can also be water-reactive, where heat and hydrogen (a flammable gas) are produced. Other common hazards include ...

A stationary shockwave ash cleaning device combined with a pneumatic booster system is a solution to the hourly cleaning of accumulated ash in boiler tube bundles. The automated ash cleaning process ...

The HVACR industry is in the process of transitioning away from HFCs such as R-410A to alternative refrigerants that are mildly flammable (A2L). Because of their flammable nature, these refrigerants ...

There has been a lot of discussion lately regarding the use of mildly flammable (A2L) refrigerants such as R-32 and R-454B in comfort cooling applications. These types of refrigerants are not ...

The image is surreal: a frozen lake, a scientist kneeling on the ice, and then a sheet of flame racing across the surface as ...

A hazardous (classified) location is an area (not necessarily room or building) where the possibility of fire or explosion exists due to the presence of flammable or combustible vapors, or flammable ...
