Fly ash is a waste by-product generated by coal-fired electricity power stations. Due to its environmental impact, there is a growing need for safe and sustainable methods of fly ash disposal. One effective approach is the beneficiation of fly ash through the production of zeolites—a class of

The North-West University (NWU) has pioneered the novel use of Europium-Tellurium-Oxide (ETO) in the production of clean energy. ETO is a light-chargeable catalyst material that exhibits sustained and enhanced activity after light excitation has ended. Its unique characteristics present an

The invention relates to a novel process of partial oxidation of un-agglomerated chromite ore in ferrochrome production processes. The process includes the steps: Providing a source of un-agglomerated chromite ore; subjecting the source of un-agglomerated chromite ore to pre-oxidation at a

This technology offers a next-generation creatine powder formulated with food-grade components that enable instant mixing in water and long-term shelf stability. When added to liquid, the powder disperses rapidly and forms a clear, grit-free solution within seconds, avoiding the sedimentation and

Industrial electrowinning is one such example where archaic technology has become the norm, with innovation being limited simply because the process is “good enough”. After doing a fundamental analysis on the electrowinning process, the design team has invented a dynamic solution which improves on

Prosopis Glandulosa commonly referred to as Honey Mesquite, has been discovered to strengthen skeletal muscle and boost healing of contused skeletal muscle. The plant is easy and cheap to cultivate. Harvesting of the plant will not deplete any natural resources. Tests on rat models scientifically

A biological solution using yeast strains which naturally remove chitinase enzymes responsible for haze formation. Adding these yeast cells to wine or grape must results in a crystal-clear product without the need for bentonite or synthetic additives.

Fluorobiotech’s technology drastically decreases the amount of time spent recovering target proteins from producer cells. Reducing the extraction time from 1 hour’s hard labour with multiple steps to an effortless one-step process that can take less than 15 minutes. This allows for parallel

Removable containers placed into the appliance base are lit up and dispensed when selected by the mobile app. Automotive MOSFETS control pulsing solenoid actuators which dispense set volumes with each pulse using one-hot encoded input/output command protocol. Intentional design of the circuit and

A novel bioreactor system that uses membranes to create a compartmentalised system whereby two or more species can be co-cultured without mixing of species, while ensuring rapid exchange of metabolites and proteins between compartments and shared medium composition. The system operates continuously

The technology relates to a process for obtaining protein from Black Soldier Fly larvae (insects/worms). The process extracts protein from Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL), separates the protein from undesired lipids and chitin and upgrades the protein to a consumer-acceptable grade, ultimately

The technology helps the fresh produce industry prosper by being more competitive. By improving the packaging component, the technology assists: Growers & Exporters be more competitive & sustainable thus to sell more product at better prices; Shipping companies to be more competitive, by using less
