RedOrbit: When thermoelectric power plants convert water to steam to turn large turbines and create energy, theyre left with plenty of whats known as waste heat. This waste heat has to go somewhere and either flows up into the atmosphere or back into the rivers or ponds where these factories source their fresh water. To better understand where this waste heat goes and how it affects the environment, scientists from the University of New Hampshire (UNH) and the City College of New York (CCNY) ran a pair...

By measuring hydrogen atoms from free water molecules with magnetic resonance technology, MR Moisture Analyzer can accurately measure water content of virtually any bulk material, such as wood-based samples, annual fibers, minerals, foodstuffs, and sludge in less than 2 minutes. Measuring accuracy is ±1 moisture percentage within 10–90% range. Designed to handle samples up to 0.8 L, plug-and-play field device is connected to distributed control system or other plant system via Ethernet Modbus.

Guardian: India's breakneck pace of industrialisation is causing a public health crisis with 80-120,000 premature deaths and 20m new asthma cases a year due to air pollution from coal power plants, a Greenpeace report warns. The first study of the health impact of India's dash for coal, conducted by a former World Bank head of pollution, says the plants cost hospitals $3.3-$4.6bn (2.2-3.1bn) a year -- a figure certain to rise as the coal industry struggles to keep up with demand for electricity. The...
