Blacksburg, Va. – Virginia Tech's High Pressure Processing Laboratory is part of a $600,000 study of the effects of high hydrostatic pressure in inactivating Norwalk virus in seafood, funded by the ...

Combining a high-pressure resin transfer molding (HP-RTM) process with carbon fiber pre-processed to incorporate a binder resin has reportedly realized an an integrated production system for carbon ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Making fresh water out of seawater usually requires huge amounts of energy. The most widespread process for desalination is called reverse osmosis, which works by flowing ...

High-pressure chemistry is an interdisciplinary science exploring reactions and phenomena occurring at pressures above 100 kPa. Under these extreme conditions, substances undergo remarkable ...

Why 3,000 bars are needed to take a comprehensive look at a protein: Researchers present a new high-pressure spectroscopy method to unravel the properties of proteins' native structures. A pressure of ...

A pressure of 3,000 bar is applied to the cold shock protein B of Bacillus subtilis in a small tube in the NMR spectroscopy laboratory at the University of Konstanz. This is roughly three times the ...

This higher density of circuitry on a wafer requires greater accuracy and a highly fragile and advanced fabrication process. Several newer and highly complex ICs today are made of a dozen or more ...

Centrifugal pumps are the most common pumps in a process plant. Despite their pivotal role in operations, however, they are often the plant's least understood and most inefficiently operated equipment ...
