January 17, 2022Water scarcity is a global concern that’s become more complicated due to demographic growth and climate change, prompting the search for alternative resources. In many parts of the world, two of the most practical and achievable methods to securing water are desalination and wastewater reuse. For decades, membrane-based technologies have been widely used for water treatment due to accessibility, simple operation, adaptability to various feed compositions and operation pressures, and consideration for the environment, unlike chemical or thermal approaches. However, only in recent decades have options for reducing, recycling, or reusing elements been investigated (Prince, et al., 2011).

December 13, 2021As the world's energy economy shifts to lithium-ion batteries for transportation, energy storage systems, and electric mobility, battery-grade lithium solids are predicted to become increasingly scarce. The cost of extracting battery-grade lithium has historically proved expensive, as the demand for the material continues to rise. But a new core technology, developed by Richmond, BC-based Saltworks, renowned for developing technologies that treat the toughest water, uses wastewater for making high-quality battery-grade lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide solids.

Or maybe, you’ve inherited a product and just aren’t sure whether you have all of the components or it’s in a ready state for use. Whether you’re a new user navigating initial start up, or a long time user in the middle of an experiment in need of immediate assistance, following paper manuals, written instructions, or waiting for a response can be trying.

November 12, 2021Cancer is considered one of the world’s most serious illnesses. In 2021, the United States alone is expected to see 1,898,160 new cancer cases. As more people develop cancer, expenditures are projected to rise in the coming years, because cancer cannot be cured with a single, universal treatment, as it is characterized by a plethora of types and genetic mutations. Current standard care, such as chemotherapy and radiation, can successfully treat cancer, but not without side effects. Presently, when doctors use these methods, healthy tissues that aren’t cancerous are affected and tend to lead to unintended complications.
