Made possible by ever-changing and emerging technologies, our industry is constantly looking for ways to create innovative products based on new materials and fresh ways of thinking.
As the economy slows down so does the demand for rare gases. During the last 12 months demand for xenon (Xe) declined almost 40 percent and demand for krypton (Kr) fell by about 30 percent.
A range of new uses for the noble gas xenon has boosted its profile along with its demand at a time when supplies have been crimped thanks to the ongoing economic recession. With that in mind, users are paying more...
Laboratory gases will always play a significant role in the everyday life of anyone working in any lab. A gas chromatograph (GC) or a mass spectrometer (MS) is just a sizable paperweight without gases.
In 1883, Rudolf Ehrenfried Buse began producing mineral water and carbon dioxide from a spring in Gerolstein (Germany, Eifel), laying the foundation for the modern day company bearing his name, BUSE.
Air Liquide (www.airliquide.com) will invest around EUR 10 million in Australia in a carbon dioxide recovery unit. The Australian market for carbon dioxide utilizes about 200,000 tons per year (tpy). The market for CO2 has been growing by four percent annually, driven by...
Carbon sequestration is a catch-all term for the capture of harmful carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, principally from coal-fired power and industrial plants, and subsequent transport for eventual storage or use in industrial or energy applications.
Within the US carbon dioxide market, changes to patterns in CO2 sourcing and changes in demand regionally continued to reshape the business in 2008 as they did in 2007. (See “The Carbon Dioxide Market Update — Bubbling with Energy Again This Year,”...
In the United States, the standard shielding gas used in gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is generally a 75/25 percent argon (Ar)/carbon dioxide (CO2) gas mixture.
