Metricon’s Model 2010/M accurately and rapidly measures refractive index of liquids inside sealed containers such as glass vials/bottles, allowing rapid and non-destructive measurement of solution concentration for quality control purposes. Matching liquids are not required between the measuring prism and the wall of the container. If a label is present, the only requirement is that there be a gap of...

Over the years, scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) have served as an important tool for quality control. SEMs are used to investigate defects and impurities at the microscopic level, to make accurate adjustments to the production process. Ensuring every product is built to the same high-quality standards. In the past, researchers have been required to perform the same repetitive steps to...

Among the solar fuel technologies, water splitting is a relatively mature technology that uses renewable electricity and water to product H₂. Storing renewable energy as H₂ is a solution for the intermittency problem of solar cells and wind turbines. Moreover, a large amount of H₂ is produced in non-renewable ways every day for important industrial processes. Replacing that H₂ by...

CO₂ capturing and utilisation technologies have the potential of decreasing the CO₂ emissions that cause climate change. Utilisation of CO₂ also allows to directly recycle the CO₂ produced in the industry to make the process carbon neutral and to produce value-added products (fuels and chemicals). Methanol is an excellent product for CO₂ utilisation, since it is already produced world-wide in large...

Fuel cells Storing electricity into fuels is a promising way to solve the intermittency problem of solar cells and wind turbines. However, in order to start implementing renewable fuels, the conversion process from these fuels back to electricity needs to be carried out efficiently and cheaply. Fuel cells are devises that can convert a great variety of chemical fuels into...
