TANAKA PRECIOUS METAL TECHNOLOGIES成功開發出可在300度低溫範圍內使用的高性能濾氫鈀合金膜

東京, 2025年9月12日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 以TANAKA的產業用貴金屬展開事業的TANAKA PRECIOUS METAL TECHNOLOGIES Co., Ltd.(總公司:東京都中央區,執行總裁:田中 浩一朗)宣布成功開發出可在300℃左右低溫範圍內使用的濾氫鈀(Pd)合金膜。與以往產品相比,本產品的特色是具有較高的氫過濾性能且使用溫度較為低溫。本產品的樣品將於2025年9月15日以後開始提供。本產品相關研究將在2025年9月17日至19日於北海道大學舉行的公益財團法人日本金屬學會「2025年秋季(第177屆)演講大會」的會議上進行發表。濾氫鈀合金膜(PdCu39)在PdCu系合金膜中,據稱PdCu40(鈀含有率60%,銅含有率40%的合金)的氫氣過濾性能最高。不過,要用PdCu40純化氫,需要在400℃左右的高溫下使用。TANAKA著眼於PdCu系濾氫薄膜的鈀含有率,成功用PdCu39(鈀含有率61%,銅含有率39%的合金)將PdCu系濾氫薄膜的最大性能發揮出來。在此之前,PdCu39的高氫氣過濾能力還未為人所認識。這是因為即使是些微fcc相(※1)摻雜其中,氫氣過濾性能就會顯著下降的關係,所以要將相完全變為bcc相(※2)被認為很難。不過,本公司根據多年的貴金屬材料研發所累積的知識見解,從中確立了藉由使用獨家的熱處理方法,可以獲得完整的bcc相,從而達到了本次的產品化階段。鈀系濾氫薄膜的氫氣滲透機制隨著近年來氫純化相關技術的發展,對於要在比以往更低的溫度下反應的濾氫金屬膜的需求正在不斷增加。要純化高純度的氫,最常見的方法是使用內建濾氫薄膜的模組來純化自甲醇水中生成的氫氣。不過,相對於自甲醇水中生成氫氣時的溫度在300℃左右,由於濾氫薄膜要400℃以上才會發揮性能,因此需要再增加加熱設備就成為增加成本的一個原因。另外,因加熱產生雜質氣體也成為一道課題。由於本產品可以在約300℃的低溫下純化氫,因此不需要再增加加熱設備,且比以往更能抑制設備的氧化。另外,也可望為削減能源成本,像是電力、CO2等作出貢獻。本產品的特色會在300℃左右的低溫下發揮效果由於實現了完整的bcc相,從而具有較高的過濾氫氣性能無針孔缺陷的膜不需要再增加加熱設備,也減少設備在加熱製程中的氧化與其他技術相比,氫純化設備可望進行小型化PdCu合金的Pd/Cu比率和氫氣滲透係數@300℃氫氣滲透係數的溫度依賴性因PdCu39的熱處理條件不同產生的bcc相/fcc相比率差異對應範圍(評估用試作樣品)板厚板寬形狀最薄達10µmT最寬達120mm薄片狀(方、圓等)(※1)fcc相:是指具有面心立方晶格結構(face centered cubic)的金屬相。(※2)bcc相:是指具有體心立方晶格結構(body centered cubic)的金屬相。關於TANAKATANAKA自1885年(明治18年)創業以來,營業範圍以貴金屬為中心,並以此展開廣泛活動。在日本國內,以最高水準的貴金屬交易量為傲的TANAKA,長年以來除了進行產業用貴金屬產品的製造和販售外,並提供資產用與珠寶用的貴金屬商品。本集團以貴金屬專業團隊之姿,旗下的國內外各集團公司協調合作,使製造、販售與技術一體化,並供應相關產品與服務。2024 年度(2024年12月止)的合併營業額為8,469億日圓,擁有5,591名員工。產業事業全球網站https://tanaka-preciousmetals.com產品諮詢表TANAKA PRECIOUS METAL TECHNOLOGIES Co., Ltd.https://tanaka-preciousmetals.com/tw/inquiries-on-industrial-products/新聞媒體諮詢處TANAKA PRECIOUS METAL GROUP Co., Ltd.https://tanaka-preciousmetals.com/tw/inquiries-for-media/新聞稿: https://www.acnnewswire.com/docs/files/20250912_CT.pdf  Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

Among Migrating Nurses, Survey Shows High Satisfaction Rates for Those Who Use a Certified Ethical Recruiter

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Sept 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In a new survey, foreign-educated nurses and other healthcare professionals who migrate to work in the United States continue to give high marks to recruitment firms that are certified by the Alliance for Ethical International Recruitment Practices.TruMerit Ethical International Recruitment ReportHow certification helps safeguard the rights of foreign-educated health professionals.The Alliance, a division of TruMerit (formerly CGFNS International), in 2024 surveyed more than 8,000 foreign-educated health professionals who had used one of its 19 Certified Ethical Recruiters (CERs). Ninety percent of respondents indicated they had an overall positive experience with their recruiter, with 55% reporting it was very positive.As the survey report shows, the high satisfaction rate essentially held steady from 2023 despite persisting delays and increased costs in the U.S. immigration process.In an earlier TruMerit/CGFNS survey of its applicants who used non-certified recruiters, only 69 percent reported a positive or very positive experience."As U.S. healthcare systems continue to look to foreign-educated nurses and other health professionals to help resolve chronic staffing shortages, it is essential that we work to protect those who have made the life-altering decision to migrate. This overall rate of positive experience remains a testament to the work of the Alliance's Certified Ethical Recruiters in their adherence to ethical practices and transparent policies," said Rodrigo Gouveia, TruMerit's Chief Global Affairs Officer.The Alliance was created nearly two decades ago in response to concerns some recruiters were using unfair and deceptive practices such as charging unreasonable fees to the recruits, withholding passports and other documents, and pressuring recruits to sign unfair and complex contracts without giving them an opportunity to read and understand them. On such issues, survey respondents had the following responses about their recruitment experiences:82% agreed (68% strongly) that their CER regularly communicated with them and addressed their concerns.More than 97% said they received a copy of their contract and suitable time to review it before signing, with 92% reporting that they were not pressured to sign.95% said their recruiter did not withhold their passports or any other critical documents.91% said they knew what their pay rate would be prior to arriving in the U.S., but a lower proportion (72%) said they knew the location of their new job in advance of emigrating.TruMerit/CGFNS had previously found that four out of five (79%) nurses who recently immigrated to the U.S. used a recruitment firm, either to place them directly with an employer or, under a staffing model, fund their migration costs in return for their commitment to work for the recruitment firm itself, which then assigns them to work at their client healthcare facilities.To be designated a Certified Ethical Recruiter, firms must undergo a rigorous evaluation of policies and practices and agree to Alliance oversight that they remain in compliance with its Health Care Code for Ethical International Recruitment and Employment Practices, which outlines specific best practices for ensuring fair, ethical, and transparent treatment of health professionals migrating to the U.S.The Alliance Code is aligned with the World Health Organization's Global Code of Practice on the International Recruitment of Health Personnel. In its recent State of the World's Nursing Report, the WHO called for reinforcing adherence to its Code and for ethically managing international mobility and migration as key policy priorities for strengthening global nursing workforce development."The results of this survey indicate the potential for recruiter certification to advance WHO's goals and in serving as a model for both source and destination countries of migrating health professionals," said Gouveia.More information on the Alliance and the Certified Ethical Recruiter program can be found at cgfnsalliance.org.About TruMeritTruMerit is a worldwide leader in healthcare workforce development. Formerly known as CGFNS International, the organization has a nearly 50-year history supporting the career mobility of nurses and other healthcare workers-and those who license and hire them-by validating their education, skills, and experience as they seek authorization to practice in the United States and other countries. As TruMerit, this mission has been expanded to building workforce capacity that meets the needs of people in a rapidly evolving global health landscape. Through its Global Health Workforce Development Institute, the organization is advancing evidence-based research, thought leadership, and advocacy in support of healthcare workforce development solutions, including globally recognized practice standards and certifications that will enhance career pathways for healthcare workers.Contact InformationDavid St. Johndstjohn@trumerit.orgSOURCE: TruMerit Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Doubleview Gold Corp Announces Important High-Grade Copper and Gold Intercepts at Hat Polymetallic Deposit in Northwestern British Columbia

Highlights:2025 season drilling totals 8,506 metres in 12 drill holes and is continuing. Drill hole assay intervals include some of the highest-grade mineralization intercepted to date at the Hat Project.Recent drill holes are extending the mineralization envelope of the Hat deposit and will be incorporated in the next Mineral Resource Estimate.Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - September 11, 2025) - Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) (the "Company" or "Doubleview") is pleased to announce important and very significant assay results from its 2025 drilling program at the Hat Polymetallic Deposit in northwestern British Columbia. The results from drill holes H090, H091, and H092 include some of the most substantial intervals of high-grade copper and gold mineralization encountered at the Hat Project to date and expand the footprint of mineralization well beyond the area considered in the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate that was reported in a 25/07/2024 news release. Drill holes H090, H091, and H092 provide more details of the East Lisle Zone, and shallow extension of the Main Lisle Zone.Partial Data from 2025 Drill Holes:The recent drilling focused on the core Lisle Zone, where drilling intercepted what is interpreted as a potential porphyry feeder zone. The intercepts demonstrate both shallow and deep mineralization horizons and provide further evidence of the Hat Deposit's robust mineralization profile.Table 1 summarizes important assay intervals from drill holes H090, H091 and H092. [Note that scandium (Sc) values are excluded from copper equivalent estimates but are shown to ensure complete disclosure of relevant data]. Data from subsequent drill holes will be released when assays are received and have been verified. To date (11/09/2025) 12 drill holes have been completed with total 8,506 metres (27,906 feet) and work is continuing.Table 1: Summary of Significant % CuEq Drill Core InterceptsDDH From (m)To (m)Length (m)CuEq (%) Excl.

The intercepts display consistent copper, gold and strong cobalt values, as well as consistent scandium mineralization, further reinforcing the Hat Deposit's potential as a significant resource of strategic metals.Figures 1 and 2 illustrate in plan and sectional views the recent drill holes H090 and H091 along with a conceptual open pit outline. The conceptual pit likely will be adjusted substantially as more data becomes available.Figure 3 illustrates drill hole H092 and pre-existing drill holes. H092 is one of the most important drill holes on the Hat property because it greatly extends the zone of higher-grade mineralization easterly and to depth. Several subsequent drill holes were designed to confirm and explore this area.Figure 1: Drill Plan with the Induced Polarization Plan and 2024 Conceptual Pit OutlineTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/266027_6cd230d7b4c4ab31_001full.jpgFigure 2: Section on H090 and H091 and 2024 Conceptual Pit OutlineTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/266027_6cd230d7b4c4ab31_002full.jpgFigure 3: Drill Section on H092, Southeast Lisle Zone and 2024 Conceptual Pit OutlineTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/266027_6cd230d7b4c4ab31_003full.jpgPresident and CEO, Farshad Shirvani, commented:"We are very pleased to present initial assay data from our 2025 field season. Included in the data are several startlingly important features of high-grade mineralization and expanded dimensions. We look forward to their inclusion in an MRE and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) in progress. Meanwhile we await with considerable interest the receipt additional assay data.We are also watching with great interest the steadily rising prices for our principal metals, copper, gold, silver and scandium, as the world markets react to this period of uncertainty, a new era of fractured trade relationships, global warming, inflation, and tariffs and the renewed emphasis on strategic metals. The recently announced possible merger of Teck Corporation with Anglo-American illustrates the active consolidation within the mining industry as established members seek to increase and buffer their positions. We believe that Doubleview will play an important role in Canada's mining industry as we expand our resource and plan for a bright future."Quality Assurance and Quality Control:Hat Project drill cores are processed at Doubleview's camp where they are photographed, measured and logged by our technical staff and then divided using a diamond bladed saw. One half is placed in a stout bag to form the assay sample that is forwarded securely to the independent analytical lab. The remaining half core is stored on site where it is available for further examination and sampling. The assay cores are subject to a Chain of Custody routine as they are shipped from camp to a bonded carrier for delivery to the lab.Core samples are analysed at the North Vancouver facility of ALS Canada Ltd. using their PREP-31, PGM-ICP24, ME-MS61, and ME-ICP06 packages. Each core sample is dried, then crushed to 70% passing a 2mm screen. All material is processed in an automatic Riffle splitter to yield a 250g homogenized, representative sample. This sub-sample is then pulverized to 85% passing a 75-micron screen. All samples are analyzed for Au, Pt, Pd by 50g fire-assay fusion/ICP-ES finish, using PGM-ICP24 package. A separate 0.25g pulp split is analyzed by Four Acid digestion/ICP-MS finish, reporting 48 elements. Over limit elements are analyzed by Ore Grade Four Acid digestion/ICP-ES finish using ME-OG62 assay package. All of Doubleview's core samples are analyzed or assayed at independent ISO 17025 and ISO 9001- certified laboratories.When initial assays are received and accepted by our staff, a certain fraction of the samples will be sent to a second ISO-certified lab for check assay and verification purposes. Assays will be reported in News Releases.Doubleview maintains a website at www.doubleview.ca.Qualified Persons:Erik Ostensoe, P.

During the Summit, a record 45 Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) were signed, more than 300 matched investment projects were showcased, and over 800 one-to-one project matching meetings were arranged, all showcasing Hong Kong’s strengths as a super connector and super value-adder in dealmaking, and reinforcing its role as a functional platform for the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).Fostering concrete cross-border cooperationAttributing to HKSAR Government and HKTDC’s proactive outbound missions and overseas trade promotions, the Summit facilitated the signing of 45 MoUs (9 government to government (G2G) and 36 business to business (B2B)), spanning Mainland China, Hong Kong, ASEAN – Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, the Middle East - Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, UAE, as well as Australia, Germany, Hungary, Kazakhstan, New Zealand, Pakistan and the United States. For example, a MoU was signed between HKTDC and Invest Oman to promote investment and business cooperation, facilitating bilateral economic and business cooperation, knowledge exchange, and the creation of new opportunities between the two economies.Other B2B MoUs included several “small and beautiful” deals with notable social impact, such as cross-sector collaborations between finance and agri-tech. For example, a joint venture agreement was signed between Chickin PTE LTD from Indonesia and LINKTA Technologies Limited from Hong Kong for applying agricultural technology to Indonesia’s layer hen market. This not only supports business expansion but also contributes to improving local livelihoods. Tubagus Syailendra, Co-founder and CEO, Chickin, said “This Joint Venture agreement aims to have a better partnership in the food security sector between China and Indonesia. We are focused on developing poultry tech to support the farmers’ efficiencies in the whole value chain. With Hong Kong company LINKTA’s involvement, we believe we could acquire technology that could help farmers battle with issues like feed waste, mortality rate, thereby increasing their efficiencies and profit margins.”Many other overseas enterprises had also leveraged the Summit to forge international partnerships. Notably, an agreement between four parties was signed between Planex from Australia, ESCP Business School from Germany, Carbon Offset Association Limited from Hong Kong and Arx Veritas from the United States. They will jointly develop the ESG and carbon credit trading education in Hong Kong, reinforcing Hong Kong’s role as a hub for carbon expertise in the Asia Pacific region.Colin Lam, Co-Founder of Planex, said: “Compared to the EU, Asia started relatively late in establishing a carbon exchange, but this delayed start has provided excellent reference points for Hong Kong and the entire Asian region. The reason we chose Hong Kong as a hub for our carbon exchange business is precisely because Hong Kong has consistently functioned as one of the world's top three financial centers for decades. We naturally aim to use Hong Kong as a hub to extend our reach to mainland China and also beyond to the Middle East. This is absolutely aligned with our strategic direction.”In addition, Infinite Water New Zealand Ltd had signed two MoUs with Realtime Purity and DAUM Consulting from the United States respectively, to establish a close strategic collaboration framework in water treatment technology.Dr Yum-Keung Ip, Managing Director, Infinite Water New Zealand Limited, said: “The HKTDC’s Australia and New Zealand office has been instrumental in bringing our technology to the Summit for further expansion to overseas. We have been through R&D in the past years, and the two MOUs signed today are just a starting point for us to enter the commercialisation phase, which we expect to be an exponential growth stage. It presents an opportunity for us to build confidence and credentials among our other stakeholders. Having our suppliers, partners and key investors witness this development is highly beneficial.”Synergising diverse platforms to build investment bridgesThe Summit has always been committed to providing participants with opportunities to showcase project outcomes, exchange the latest information, and establish concrete collaborations. This year, the Project Investment Session featured more than 300 matched investment projects. Over 800 one-to-one project matching meetings for the Belt and Road Deal Making, helping enterprises connect precisely with potential partners. Deal-making will continue online to promote substantive cooperation from 15–16 September.

Latest GA-ASI and AeroVironment Complete First-Ever Air Launch of Switchblade 600 From MQ-9A UAS

SAN DIEGO, Sept 11, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) and AeroVironment ("AV") (NASDAQ:AVAV) collaborated on the air launch of a Switchblade 600 loitering munition (LM) from a GA-ASI Block 5 MQ-9A unmanned aircraft system (UAS). The flight testing took place from July 22-24 at the U.S. Army Yuma Proving Grounds Test Range. It marked the first time a Switchblade 600 has ever been launched from an unmanned aircraft."This cooperative effort showcased how combining different unmanned technologies could really provide value and effects to the warfighter," said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. "By using MQ-9A to carry the Switchblade, the MQ-9A is able to stand off farther from enemy weapons systems and increase the range of the SB600, which will provide greater access and options in contested airspace."After successfully integrating the SB600 with the MQ-9A, the team released two LMs: one with an inert warhead and the other with a high-explosive round. After launch, the team transferred control of the Switchblade from a user in the MQ-9A's ground control station to a user on the ground nearer the operational area.The test further validated GA-ASI's ability to integrate and operate a variety of airborne launched effects on the battlefield - including both those built by GA-ASI and by partners such as AV - and how their use in conflict provides risk-tolerant options to commanders in contested operations.About GA-ASIGeneral Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. is the world's foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Logging more than 8 million flight hours, the Predator® line of UAS has flown for over 30 years and includes MQ-9A Reaper®, MQ-1C Gray Eagle®, MQ-20 Avenger®, and MQ-9B SkyGuardian®/SeaGuardian®.

We are a "super connector" and "super value-adder" for high-quality collaborations worldwide.

With this project going live, Oxeno elevates its planning capabilities into a new insight-driven, decision-centric planning era.This is not a new beginning. It's the next evolution of a platform that has been live and delivering real results since April 2021. Over the last four years, Evonik Oxeno has embraced decision-centric planning, calculating 30 to 50 scenarios per day and nearly 10,000 simulations since the launch. These scenarios allow teams to explore future possibilities and make informed, data-driven decisions across the company's chemical value chain. The result is a supply chain that can respond to feedstock volatility, market shifts, or logistical risks while safeguarding business continuity and capturing opportunities.The newly deployed version is a significant enhancement, built from the ground up based on four years of operational insight. It introduces a streamlined cloud environment, a purpose-built framework for continuous production, and more intelligent, low-friction workflows, making it easier and faster for planners to proactively optimize, simulate, compare, and act on complex scenarios. While the core approach remains the same, the new version lowers the barriers to advanced planning. It accelerates the path to insight, empowering planners to focus more on strategic decision-making."We didn't reinvent how we work, we just made it easier," said Frank Beißmann, Managing Director at Evonik Oxeno. "With this new version, we've taken everything we've learned and turned it into a faster, more intuitive, and even more powerful platform supporting confident, proactive decisions."OMP's continued partnership with Evonik Oxeno underscores a shared commitment to innovation and operational excellence in the chemical industry."Oxeno's forward-thinking approach is a benchmark for what decision-centric planning can achieve," said Christian Wöllenstein, Senior Project Manager at OMP. "This upgrade reflects our shared vision of continuous improvement, one where supply chain planning is deeply intelligent, future-proof, and business-aligned."For a deeper dive into how Evonik Oxeno transformed its planning - including organizational changes, scenario-based decision-making, and sustainability gains beyond what's covered here - explore the full story.Contact InformationChristian WöllensteinSenior Project Manager at OMPcwoellenstein@omp.comSOURCE: OMPRelated ImagesEvonik Oxeno goes live with upgraded decision-centric planning platform in the cloud Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Among them, the Qingdao light show was grandly held from 19:45 to 20:00 on the evening of September 8 at Fushan Bay in Qingdao, serving as "a celebratory tribute dedicated to the special occasion of IFBH's inclusion in the Stock Connect."Revenue Growth Outpaces Market Segment, Profit Resilience Withstands Short-Term VolatilityThanks to consumers’ growing awareness of taste and its ability to meet the demand for natural, healthy, functional, and hydrating beverages, the coconut water segment is experiencing rapid growth. In this booming market, IFBH stands as an industry leader. It has maintained the highest market share in China for five consecutive years and ranks as the second-largest company in the global coconut water beverage market, positioning it to capture long-term industry growth.Recently, IFBH released its 2025 interim results, delivering a performance that demonstrated both growth and resilience in the first half of the year, with its core competitiveness continuing to strengthen.Based on its revenue performance in the first half of the year, IFBH demonstrated a significant competitive advantage in the health beverage segment.

Among this, the if brand contributed 89% of revenue, while Innococo accounted for 11%.In terms of revenue structure, IFBH exhibits a dual-engine growth pattern of “core category leadership and new category breakthroughs” .

The adjusted net profit margin remained stable at 20%, placing IFBH in the upper mid-range of the food and beverage industry and highlighting the continued strong profitability of its core business.It is worth noting that the second half is traditionally the peak season for beverage consumption, IFBH’s profit growth is expected to further align with its revenue growth, with continued expansion in its room for profit flexibility.On the operational front, IFBH has proactively stocked up in advance to capitalize on the peak summer and National Day consumption periods in the second half of the year, reflecting management’s strong confidence in future market demand.From intensified marketing efforts and the gradual fading of previous profit-dampening factors to early channel stocking, IFBH is well-positioned for overall favorable development, with high certainty for accelerated growth in the second half of the year.Sustained Industry Momentum and Multi-Dimensional Strengths Drive Long-Term GrowthFrom an industry perspective, the global consumer market is undergoing a divergent pattern of “traditional segments under pressure while emerging sectors on the rise”. In this context, the health consumption sector stands out with increasingly strong growth prospects. As the fastest-growing segment in the RTD soft drink market, the coconut water industry in Mainland China is expected to expand steadily with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.2% from 2024 to 2029, reaching a market size of US$2.55 billion by 2029. The global coconut water market is also projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.1%, increasing from US$5.0 billion in 2024 to US$8.5 billion in 2029.IFBH is implementing a dual-brand differentiation strategy with if and Innococo working in synergistic operation. if brand will further expand into foodservice channels, online platforms, etc., fully capturing the growth opportunities in China’s coconut water industry, while the other brand, Innococo, plans to enter the sports drink market while continuing to diversify its beverage offerings, creating a balanced structure of “dual brands + multiple categories”, driving sustained growth in the Company’s performance.On the other hand, IFBH will accelerate its global expansion. In the first half of the year, the Company saw significant year-on-year revenue growth in markets such as Australia, the United States, and Canada. Looking ahead, IFBH will focus on expanding into Southeast Asia and the Americas. The Company’s asset-light model provides high agility for business expansion. Moving forward, IFBH is expected to replicate its success in the Chinese market and advance toward becoming a global leader in coconut water. For long-term investors, IFBH is not only a high-quality player in the health consumption sector but also a rare option with the potential for sustained growth and resilience through market cycles.
