Below are the compelling reasons to participate in our upcoming 3D-Conference: (1) *Game-Changing Technologies*: Witness how the future of manufacturing is Re-Shaping major industries such as MEDICAL, AEROSPACE, and MACHINERY/EQUIPMENT. (2) *Differentiated Value*: Coming from a highly TECHNICAL & BUSINESS driven environment enables us to develop BEST-in-CLASS conferences that are rated exceptionally high from the global participants. Our conference chairman, John Hornick's book "3D Printing Will Rock the World" just got released and he will share his insights on this dynamic field along with leaders from Multi-Industries.  More details at https://innoplastsolutions.com/3d

Versalis (Eni), a European producer in the polymers and elastomers industry, and Genomatica, one of the leaders in bioengineering solutions, announced that they have successfully advanced to pilot-scale production of bio-butadiene (bio-BDE) from fully renewable feedstock. Versalis used this bio-BDE to make bio-rubber, specifically, bio-polybutadiene (bio-BR). These accomplishments represent a remarkable milestone for the rubber industry, by enabling an improved technological and sustainability footprint; and to the broader industry for butadiene, one of the most widely-used chemicals in the world, with over ten million tons produced per year. The success of this innovative undertaking results from a newly-developed process for the on-purpose production of butadiene which uses various types of sugars as feedstock, rather than the traditional use of hydrocarbon feedstocks. The project started with the establishment of a technology joint venture between Versalis and Genomatica in early 2

The compounder and plastics distributor  FKuR Kunststoff GmbH , Willich, Germany, the film manufacturer Oerlemans Plastics BV, Genderen, the Netherlands, and the specialist foodstuffs packaging distributor BK Pac AB, Kristianstad, Sweden, are closely working together on expanding the possibilities for using bio-based plastics for sustainable foodstuffs film packaging. In this transnational cooperation project, bioplastics specialist FKuR is the distributor for the Green PE from the world-leading, Brazilian biopolymer manufacturer Braskem which is used to produce the film. This 100% recyclable, sugar cane-based polyethylene helps to reduce the environmental impact caused by greenhouse gases because using renewable raw materials binds up to 2.15 tons of atmospheric CO 2  for each ton of Green PE. And since the plastic is not biodegradable, this CO 2  remains bound in the plastic over the entire product life cycle. In the next step, Oerlemans Plastics uses the Braskem bio-based PE su

NASA’s follow-on to the successful ICESat mission will employ a never-before-flown technique for determining the topography of ice sheets and the thickness of sea ice, but that won’t be the only first for this mission. Slated for launch in 2018, NASA’s Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) also will carry a 3-D printed part made of  polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) , a material that has never been used in 3-D manufacturing, let alone flown in space. “This is a first for this material,” said Craig Auletti, lead production engineer on ICESat-2’s only instrument, the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) now being built at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. The part is a bracket that supports the instrument’s fiber-optic cables. PEKK Offers Advantages Instrument developers chose PEKK because it’s strong, but perhaps more important, it’s electrostatically dissipative — that is, it reduces the build up of static electricity to protect elec

Dear Colleague,  NOV 29: Leaders of 150 countries including President Obama, Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg of the U.S. gathered in Paris and vowed to reduce the emission of planet-warming greenhouse gases. While most major corporations around the world have escalated their efforts in recent years on improving the "Environmental Impact & Sustainability" via several routes, some very intriguing technologies have emerged lately that convert the harmful greenhouse gases (CO2 and CH4) into useful products. These technologies have entered the commercial phase and will push the "Environment Protection & Sustainability" to levels never seen before; that is, first reduce the emissions and then "Further Reduction" by conversion to useful products. At this Feb 9-11 BioMass Conference, there is a session on "Waste & Greenhouse Gases as Raw Materials"; Dr. Yash Khanna will present an overview of such emerging-commercial technologies. For details
