Yorkshire Water has partnered with Saveco in the deployment of a new sludge screen technology, a UK first. Known affectionately as ‘The Beast’, the new screen enables tankers to connect and pump sludge into it, rather than offloading sludge to a holding tank that is then fed into traditional screens by gravity. The technology has been used successfully in the US and will be introduced to treatment process at Woodhouse Mill.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.

Researchers in Madrid have used a novel near-infrared-light imaging technique to capture the first cross-sectional images of carbon dioxide in the exhaust plume of a commercial jet engine. The new technology could help accelerate turbine combustion research aimed at developing engines and aviation fuels that are more environmentally friendly. To image such a large area, the researchers used a 7-m-diameter optical mounting frame (red) located just 3 m from the exit nozzle of the engine.

Governments around the world are dedicating taxpayer money to hydrogen projects, and these are invariably presented as using green hydrogen (produced by electrolysis using renewable energy). Hydrogen detractors often warn that, once these projects are funded, green hydrogen, which isn’t yet available at any scale, will prove impractical, and boosters will quietly switch to grey hydrogen (produced from fossil fuels).
