ISKENDERUN – November 12, 2026 -- Monitoring near SPIC's Hunutlu Power Plant on Iskenderun Bay in Türkiye has recorded a high of more than 60 sea turtle nests on the adjacent beach, after the plant wrote nesting-ground protection into its engineering design.

Truss bridge replaces trestle and access roads to spare nesting beach

Shanghai Electric Power made preserving the nearby sea turtle reserve a precondition at the planning and design stage. Plant director Zhang Qingbin said the nearby transport trestle and access roads were optimized into a long-span truss bridge, under the guidance of local sea turtle experts, so the nesting area would not be affected.

Sacramento – November 10, 2026 -- NSF International has registered Infinium EDGE ETV100 Immersion Fluid in Category HT1 for heat transfer applications with possible incidental food contact, and certified it PFAS-Free under NSF Certification Guideline 537, Infinium announced.

NSF applies food-plant heat transfer standards to a data center fluid

ETV100 now meets the same NSF requirements applied to heat transfer fluids used in food and beverage processing plants. To earn HT1 status, NSF reviews a fluid's formulation and labeling against U.S. FDA regulations (21 CFR).

ETV100 runs Infinium Edge's single-phase immersion cooling systems, including Vector ONE modules deployed through the EdgeSites program. EdgeSites converts existing powered commercial and industrial buildings into AI data centers that use zero freshwater for cooling.

Qingdao – September 20, 2026 -- Qingdao SOCO New Material Co., Ltd. has launched ODORSORB-101, a plant-based liquid formulated to chemically capture nitrogen- and sulfur-based odor compounds at industrial and municipal sites rather than mask them.

Product targets ammonia, sulfide and amine compounds at the source

ODORSORB-101 is engineered to capture and lock odor-causing molecules including ammonia, methylamine, trimethylamine, hydrogen sulfide, mercaptans and sulfides, reducing their volatility and limiting re-release into surrounding air. These compounds are commonly generated at wastewater plants, sludge and leachate ponds, manure storage and organic waste sites.
