VIBRATION BASED METHOD TO ESTIMATE VISCOSITY AND DENSITY OF FLUIDS AND SOFT-SOLIDS
VAlue proposition In various applications there is a need for viscosity and density measurements of fluids and solids. Resonant sensors for the measurement of rheological properties are often employed in process and condition monitoring. Micro-acoustic MEMS devices such as micro-cantilevers and SAW devices have been previously used for such applications....

Cost-Effective Single-Step Process for the Catalytic Conversion of Methane to Methanol/Formaldehyde
Unmet Need: Currently there is no technology available in the market capable of producing Dimethyl Ether (DME) from methane in a single reactor. DME is an attractive substitute for diesel due to its high cetane number, which is a measure of its ignitibility in compression ignition engines. In addition, DME’s quiet combustion and inability to form...
