TOKYO, Sep 19, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) has renewed CO2MPACT(TM) series, which has been commercialized for decarbonization of a wide range of industries. The new model adopts a mass-produced full-module concept based on standard design as a middle size of CO2MPACT(TM). By maximizing the module ratio, it is possible to improve the efficiency of on-site fieldwork and shorten the construction period, which occupies a large volume of conventional plants delivery time.The new model, "CO2MPACT(TM) Full-Module," will be able to propose the optimum capacity of captured CO2 according to the flue gas from customer's facility in the range of 1 to 200 tons/day. In addition, more than 90% of the equipment is modularized into the container size or prefabricated in a workshop. As a result, the work volume at construction site will be greatly reduced, especially the on-site welding work, by 95%. CO2MPACT(TM) Full-Module inherits its development concepts such as "easiness," "lightness," "moving fast," and "simple,". Going forward, MHI Group will further strengthen the customer support package, encompassing everything from initial planning to after-sales servicing, through the lineup with "CO2MPACT(TM) Mobile," which has already been delivered for demonstration tests in various industrial fields.MHI Group will also exhibit at CCUS WORLD, the first large-scale carbon dioxide capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) exhibition in Japan, to be held from Wednesday, October 2 to Friday, October 4, at Makuhari Messe, Chiba, and introduce the concept of the CO2MPACT(TM) series and CCUS value chain, one of the Group's future growth areas, by using digital materials. In the exhibition, on Wednesday, October 2, Tatsuto Nagayasu, Senior Vice President (CCUS) of GX (Green Transformation) Solutions, will give a keynote speech on "CCUS Growth Strategy of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Medium-Term Business Plan."MHI Group has formally declared its intent to achieve carbon neutrality by 2040, and the Company is now working strategically to decarbonize both the energy demand and supply sides. A core element of the Company's "Energy Transition," which targets decarbonization on the energy supply side, is the development of a CCUS value chain integrating diverse sources of carbon emissions with modes for carbon storage and utilization. Going forward, MHI Group will continue to proactively promote its CCUS business worldwide, applying its proprietary CO2 capture technologies, contributing as a solutions provider to reducing greenhouse gas emissions on a global scale, and developing further solutions that contribute to environmental protection.About MHI Group's CO2 capture technologiesMHI Group has been developing the KM CDR Process(TM) (Kansai Mitsubishi Carbon Dioxide Recovery Process) and the Advanced KM CDR Process(TM) in collaboration with the Kansai Electric Power Co., Inc. since 1990.

TOKYO, Sep 19, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Hitachi Industrial Products, Ltd. ("Hitachi Industrial Products") has commercialized the world's first(1) copper die-cast(2) rotor(3) for railway traction motors as light weight of rotor. By adding weight-reduction technology to the high-efficiency technologies that Hitachi Industrial Products already possesses, we will contribute to further energy savings and reduced environmental impact of railway vehicle operation.Internal structure of traction motor with copper die-cast rotorTo further reduce the weight of rotors, a component of traction motors, Hitachi Industrial Products has developed a copper die-cast rotor for railway traction motors.The copper die-cast rotor is manufactured by die-casting copper, a conductor, and is approximately 15 kg lighter in weight than conventional rotors in which copper bars and end rings(4) are brazed together ("copper bar type"). Going forward, this new rotor will be applied to railway projects.(1) According to our research (using copper die-cast rotors in traction motors for railway vehicles)(2) Die casting: A casting method in which molten metal is poured into a mold, and shaped under pressure.(3) Rotor: A rotating part that constitutes a traction motor. Here, this refers to a squirrel-cage rotor.(4) End ring: A ring material that electrically connects and shorts both ends of the rotor conductor copper bars. Copper or brass is applied.Development BackgroundHitachi Industrial Products' conventional lineup of traction motor rotors consists of two types: the copper bar type, which is constructed by inserting a rod-shaped copper bar into a slot in the iron core, and the aluminum die-casting type, which is manufactured by die-casting an aluminum conductor.In order to contribute to the realization of a carbon-neutral society, we are promoting the improvement of the efficiency of traction motors.For our highly efficient products, we use copper bar type rotor conductors made of copper material, which has lower losses than aluminum.To achieve both efficiency and weight reduction, we considered adopting the copper die-casting, and could reduce the number of parts by simplifying the structure while maintaining the efficiency achieved by using copper material. However, because the melting point of copper (approximately 1086degC) is higher than that of aluminum (approximately 660degC), the temperature of the molten copper becomes very high, making it extremely difficult to cast with good quality. In addition, because the rotor is intended for traction motors for railway, die-casting into larger rotors is necessary, which was an issue.By applying the aluminum die-casting technology it has cultivated to copper, repeatedly prototyping and verifying copper die-cast rotors over several years, Hitachi Industrial Products established suitable design and verification methods for railway vehicle traction motors, developed and commercialized high-quality copper die-cast rotors.Exhibitionat "InnoTrans 2024, the International Railway Technology Trade Fair"The copper die-cast rotor will be exhibited at the International Railway Technology Trade Fair - InnoTrans 2024, which will be held in Berlin, Germany from Tuesday, September 24th to Friday, September 27th, 2024.

These trends reflect a broad-based economic recovery across multiple sectors in Malaysia.However, the Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance (BFSI) sector recorded a 9% YoY decrease in hiring activity, with a notable decline over the last month.
