Electrodeionization is a water treatment technology that utilizes an electrode to ionize water molecules and separate dissolved ions (impurities) from water. It differs from other water purificatio...
Diamond-like carbon (DLC) is a class of amorphous carbon material that displays some of the typical properties of diamond. DLC is usually applied as coatings to other materials that could benefit f...

Succinic acid (/səkˈsɪnɨk/; IUPAC systematic name: butanedioic acid; historically known as spirit of amber[2]) is a diprotic, dicarboxylic acid with chemical formula C4H6O4 and structural formula H...
Superconducting wire is wire made of superconductors. When cooled below its transition temperature, it has zero electrical resistance. Most commonly, conventional superconductors such as niobium-ti...
A gas detector is a device which detects the presence of various gases within an area, often as part of a safety system. This type of equipment is used to detect a gas leak and interface with a con...
Superconductors may be considered perfect diamagnets, and completely expel magnetic fields due to the Meissner effect when the superconductivity initially forms; thus superconducting levitation can...
Yttrium barium copper oxide, often abbreviated YBCO, is a family of crystalline chemical compounds, famous for displaying "High-temperature superconductivity". It includes the first material ever d...
BSCCO was the first HTS material to be used for making practical superconducting wires. All HTS have an extremely short coherence length, of the order of 1.6 nm. This means that the grains in a pol...
Optical tweezers (originally called "single-beam gradient force trap") are scientific instruments that use a highly focused laser beam to provide an attractive or repulsive force (typically on the ...
A monolithic catalyst support is an extruded substrate widely used in vehicle catalytic converters. Monolithic catalyst supports are extruded substrates that are widely used in automotive and stat...
Nucleic acid amplification
Sequencing by hybridization is a class of methods for determining the order in which nucleotides occur on a strand of DNA. Typically used for looking for small changes relative to a known DNA seque...
Pitting corrosion, or pitting, is a form of extremely localized corrosion that leads to the creation of small holes in the metal. The driving power for pitting corrosion is the depassivation of a s...
Semiconductor assisted metal deposition
Hydrodesulfurization (HDS) is a catalytic chemical process widely used to remove sulfur (S) from natural gas and from refined petroleum products such as gasoline or petrol, jet fuel, kerosene, dies...
Methylnaltrexone (MNTX, trade name Relistor) is one of the newer agents of peripherally-acting μ-opioid antagonists that act to reverse some of the side effects of opioid drugs such as constipation...
Monitoring process signals
In CPOX (catalytic partial oxidation) the use of a catalyst reduces the required temperature to around 800°C – 900°C. The choice of reforming technique depends on the sulfur content of the fuel ...
