Researchers
at GE, working with the help of a DARPA grant for sensor development,
found that when infrared radiation hit the wing of the
<em>Morpho</em> butterfly, the nanostructures on the wing
heated up and expanded, causing iridescence, or color change. By adding
carbon nanotubes, scientists can predictably affect the rate of
radiation absorption and increase sensitivity.

As
Canada's oil sands industry
seeks to maximize the role of water recycling to protect local fresh
water
supplies, GS Engineering & Construction has selected GE
to
supply the produced water evaporation and zero liquid discharge (ZLD)
system
for the Blackgold Oil Sands project, located near Conklin, Alberta.

At the heart of this engineering solution, deployed about 17
km from the town of Rovigo, near Venice, Italy,
is an enormous reinforced concrete box that rests on the sea floor and houses two
LNG storage tanks. The artificial island now represents about 10% of Italy’s
annual gas demand and is the first offshore deployment of GE’s dual-fuel low
emissions gas turbine system.

Amorphous silicon chip arrays coupled with scintillators are replacing
x-ray film detection techniques. Their large dynamic range for
intensities compared to film are one of the main reasons why these flat
panel detectors are so attractive. Researchers at General Electric Global
Research Center, Niskuyana, N.Y., and General Electric
Inspection Technologies, Cincinnati, Ohio, have developed the GE
Revolution Real Time Radiography Detector System.
