Waste heat recovery to eliminate the novel coronavirus in HVAC systems
A recent study proposes a technique for eliminating SARS-CoV-2 from cleanroom HVAC systems using the recovered heat of exhaust air. The modified system could be easily implemented in...
The French Health Protection Agency (InVS) warns against Legionella outbreaks
In an official statement dated July 2004, the French Health Protection Agency called for vigilance with regards to the risk of Legionella outbreaks during summer 2004. In 2003, 1044 legionella cases were recorded in France and 129 patients died....
Spray freeze-drying technique for the manufacturing of pharmaceutical products
Some biopharmaceuticals such as vaccines have a short shelf life and must be handled with care. A recent literature review presents the spray freeze-drying technique as an interesting option for optimising the...
Rapid low-temperature process adds weeks to milk's shelf life
A rapid heating and cooling of milk significantly reduces the amount of harmful bacteria present, extending by several weeks the shelf life of milk, according to a Purdue University study.
Fallstreak holes
Fallstreak holes are a stunning and very rare natural phenomenon. Last November, a Reddit user shared an incredible picture showing one of these wonders of nature in the skies over eastern Victoria, Australia.
New in cooling tower technology.
This process offers greater safety and efficiencies combining the best of wet and dry cooling tower technologies.
A Norwegian project: Snow for the future
An independent research organisation and a Norwegian university are developing a heat pump system to produce snow, even if the temperature are above freezing.
Scientists develop a chip to detect Legionelia very quickly
Researchers at the Technical University of Munich claim to have developed a test for quick detection of Legionella bacteria.
Efficient cooling methods to reduce heat stress in pigs
Microclimate parameters such as air temperature and humidity are important indicators of animal welfare. Besides, heat stress is more detrimental to productivity in the swine...
