Elm Plating's coating line uses closed pollution control equipment To solve air issues.

A metal finishing consultant looks at the present state of affairs in a dynamic, constantly changing and increasingly controversial area - pollution control in the plating industry. The social, political, economic and technological aspects of the problem are all considered.

Following this list of guidelines can help to increase the performance, cost effectiveness and quality for your anodizing operation. 

The NASF-AESF Foundation Research Board selected a project on electrodeposition toward developing low-cost and scalable manufacturing processes for hydrogen fuel cells and electrolysis cells for clean transportation and distributed power applications. In this period, we followed our work on 3D printing anode support for solid oxide fuel cells, focusing on the thermal shock properties of 3D printed yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ).

Survey says U.S. manufacturers spend relatively little on waste prevention and treatment.

Is it going to cost your company money to become more environmentally friendly and energy efficient? Some think it will. This executive summary and the associated report show that pollution prevention and energy efficient operations may actually save you money. A link to the full report is provided…

The California Department of Toxic Substances Control ‘Metal Finishing Model Shop Program’ is a unique voluntary pollution prevention program designed to help a metal finishing business run a cleaner and safer shop.

The NASF-AESF Foundation Research Board selected a project on electrodeposition toward developing low-cost and scalable manufacturing processes for hydrogen fuel cells and electrolysis cells for clean transportation and distributed power applications.  In this period, we followed our work on 3D printing anode support for solid oxide fuel cells, SOFC (or cathode for solid oxide electrolyzers, SOEC) based on our designed optimization outlined in the previous report.  We worked on optimizing the printing parameters, obtaining binder burn out and sintering profiles to obtain printed parts with desired geometry and properties. 

It is critical to evaluate the viability of replacement solvents and to work closely with your solvent supplier to find the right formulation for an application.
