Mercedes-Benz puts renewable fuel on the road
Muttenz, January 29, 2014 - A fuel of the future is being introduced to the streets in a fleet test launched by the joined forces of Clariant, Haltermann, and Mercedes-Benz. The Clariant sunliquid® process converts wheat straw into cellulosic ethanol. The company Haltermann then mixes the cellulosic ethanol with conventional fuel components to form the new fuel. The production of cellulosic ethanol is virtually CO2-neutral, saving almost 100 % of CO2 emissions when compared to gasoline. sunliquid®20 is 20 % cellulosic ethanol, i.e. the well-to-wheel comparison shows reductions in greenhouse gas emissions of around 20 % with consistent engine power. There is no competition with food production or for agricultural acreage. A high octane number (RON) of over 100 guarantees optimal efficiency.

Belden Offers Efficient Solution for Power over Ethernet
St. Louis, Missouri - January 23, 2014 - Belden Inc., a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, announces the availability of a new Hirschmann Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector. The new SPIDER Giga 2TX PoE EEC is an efficient solution for powering devices, such as IP cameras, IP telephones or WLAN access points. It makes it possible to expand networks, using PoE functionality without replacing any standard switches, so power can be transported directly via the data cable. As a result, there is no need for sockets/power lines for separate power supply units or PoE switches. The data port of the PoE injector, which supports Gigabit Ethernet, can simply be coupled with a standard switch, and the respective device connected to the PoE port. Since this port can supply up to 30 watts, even devices with higher power consumption can be powered.
