Start with the news release Thermal hydrolysis improves sludge digestion from Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Safe and cost-effective disposal of sewage sludge is one of the biggest challenges currently facing the industry, according to Lee Mountford, product manager, Veolia Water Solutions and Technologies.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Warner provides brakes for large wind turbines from Warner Electric: "Warner's ERS series of spring-engaged, electrically released brakes is helping to further the growth of wind energy by providing the braking function for large turbines under maximum wind conditions.".
