A Chem-Gard CGMC close-coupled, magnetically-driven thermoplastic centrifugal pump in sizes from 38 x 25 x 152 to 76 x 51 x 203 mm for flows to 91m³/hr at heads to 50m TDH, has been introduced by Vanton Pump.

Energy Recovery Inc recently delivered 25 ERI TurboCharger energy recovery devices for the largest seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plant in the world.

Colfax Corporation has expanded its SmartSense intelligent pump monitoring line to include the new SmartSense Pulse. Measuring only 2.4 inches long, 1.6 inches wide and 1.3 inches deep, the Pulse easily fits near the bearing on a pump to gauge temperature and vibration. At-a-glance LEDs on the unit indicate pump performance and provide preventive maintenance alerts when needed.

Information exchange and dissemination is one of the most important components of networking among scientific institutions. One step towards such networking is the establishment of an online Forestry Research Network for Sub-Saharan Africa (FORNESSA) Information Service (FORNIS).
