Despite the government's budget-consuming rice pledging scheme, it is a painful truth that most farmers struggle with massive amounts of accumulated debt, mainly due to their use of chemical ...fertilisers and the purchase of expensive raw materials. "Currently we are used as a tool by businesses to conduct corporate social responsibility practices, while policies targeting farmers are tools that politicians use," he said.
...while we've been producing ammonia at a large scale since the 1930s, it has been accomplished mainly in hulking chemical plants requiring vast amounts of hydrogen gas from fossil fuels—making ...ammonia among the most energy-intensive among all large-volume chemicals. Plasmas, often referred to as the fourth state of matter (apart from solid, liquid or gas), are ionized clouds of gas, consisting of positive ions and free electrons, which give it the unique ability to activate chemical bonds, including the rather challenging nitrogen molecule, at room temperature. Renner, a Climo Assistant Professor in the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering Department, added that because this new process doesn't need high pressure or high temperature or hydrogen, it makes it scalable—"the ideal kind of technology for a much smaller plant, one with high potential to be powered by renewable energy."
In the gallery of famous people tracing their origins to Wrocław, few are as controversial, as complex, or as tragic as Fritz Haber, ever more distant in the flux of time, yet still stirring ...emotions. He developed a method for the direct synthesis of ammonia from its elements and later pioneered chemical warfare on the battlefields of the First World War.
Alongside other corporates, like Daimler, Porsche, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise / DXC Technology, BASF has been partnering and mentoring selected start-ups in pilot projects in the areas of ...blockchain, sensor technology, augmented reality, future manufacturing, and product simulation. The start-up Quantoz, together with BASF and start-up Ahrma, found a smart answer to this question: an intelligent pallet that not only informs about its position and movement, but also its loading status as well as a...
