Graphmatech has launched its AROS Polyamide-Graphene composites, which are reported to reduce hydrogen leakage by 83% compared to traditional commercial storage solutions.The graphene-enhanced material will be dedicated to hydrogen storage and transport applications. Graphmatech expects the solution to be implemented in approximately 1,000 light commercial vehicles (LCVs) and 500 heavy commercial...
Dredging plays a critical role in maintaining waterways, harbors, and coastal regions around the world. It involves the removal of sediment, debris, or other materials from the bottom of lakes, rivers, harbors, and oceans. While it may seem like a straightforward process, dredging is a complex operation that requires specialized equipment, careful planning, and environmental considerations. This post...
