American Falls in Idaho is certainly no stranger to all things water. Almost a century ago, the entire town - nearly 350 residents and their homes, over 60 businesses, churches, schools, powerlines - and the entire railroad - had to move to make way for the American Falls Dam. *
Today, American Falls’ population of 4300 is served by a wastewater treatment center that is the envy of most small towns in the United States – a facility that in 2012 cost $15M to build.

Merger to Deliver High-End Performance and Ultra-Accurate Time and Frequency Products for Commercial, Critical Infrastructure, and Military Markets Worldwide
ROCHESTER, N.Y., October 25, 2021 – Orolia, the world leader in Resilient Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) solutions, announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Seven Solutions, a global innovator in White Rabbit sub-nanosecond time transfer and synchronization technology. This transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and approvals required by the Spanish government and is expected to close before the end of the year.
The merger with the tech company based in Granada, Spain will enhance Orolia’s portfolio for defense, aerospace, data centers, telecom, financial services, smart grids, and other critical infrastructure industries and will enable the next generation applications dependent on ultra-precise, resilient timing and frequency technology.
“Orolia and Seven Solutions under one umbrella will combine our world-leading technologies to draw a new frontier in network timing to sub-nanosecond levels, delivering the most robust and accurate Resilient PNT solutions for our customers,” said Orolia CEO Jean-Yves Courtois. “Seven Solutions’ long history of delivering cutting-edge time distribution solutions to sectors like telecommunications, smart-grid, aerospace, defense and scientific facilities aligns perfectly with Orolia’s DNA. It will add to the list of industry-first capabilities that Orolia regularly brings to market to unlock new possibilities for our customers, including to further protect their critical applications against threats, disruption, manipulation of PNT services, such as GPS/GNSS jamming, spoofing and outages.”
Orolia and Seven Solutions will integrate global sales, marketing, product development and operations. Orolia presents an unparalleled full-scale and modular approach to Resilient PNT, which includes atomic clocks with a combination of GNSS signals protected with Interference Detection and Mitigation (IDM) technology, together with Low Earth Orbit (LEO) secure alternative signals. The addition of Seven Solutions products will deliver terrestrial sub-nanosecond time distribution from distant and potentially redundant locations.
“We believe the union of our companies will produce the future of time transfer and frequency distribution solutions in terms of accuracy, reliability and interoperability,” said Rafael Rodriguez, chief technology officer and co-founder of Seven Solutions. “Finance, 5G telecommunications, datacenters and hyperscalers have new and upgraded functionalities requiring ultra-accurate time distribution accuracy. To maximize interoperability, our solution for time transfer is based on the White Rabbit concept that has been pushed over the last decade to become the basis of the standard High Accuracy time transfer profile (within the recent release of IEEE 1588 of precision time protocol).”
Orolia and Seven Solutions are members of the Open PNT Industry Alliance. The international organization focuses on market concepts that strengthen economic and national security by supporting government efforts to implement Resilient PNT capabilities for critical infrastructure.

BOGE, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of high-performance compressors, has launched a line of economy screw compressors with immediate availability.
With BOGE’s ‘Made in Germany’ reliability, BOGE ecoline delivers high operating hours, low servicing costs and includes next day delivery. This will come as positive news for many businesses facing the challenges of UK availability right now.
Ideal for the smaller industrial manufacturer, the ecoline screw compressor uses a belt-driven drive system and is oil-lubricated. It comes with standard options such as different pressure ratings, air receiver, refrigerant dryer and a 24 month warranty, extendable up to 5 years. The compressor includes an IE3 motor and BOGE base control, which is also used in the current C-series compressor range. The air end is a 1st generation design used for many years in previous generations of BOGE Compressors and is manufactured by BOGE's factory in Germany.
The British Compressed Air Society (BCAS) is urging food producers to consider the benefits of on-site nitrogen generation, to help mitigate the risk of CO2 gas shortages in the future.
Recent news reports have focused on the impact that the rise in wholesale gas prices is having on the production of carbon dioxide. This is an essential gas used in the drinks industry for soft drinks and some beers, and in packaging to extend the shelf life of fresh food products.
Although the Government has introduced emergency support measures to ensure ongoing production at CF Industries’ Teeside and Cheshire fertiliser plants, where CO2 is produced as a by-product, supply chain issues remain, which are leading to some shortages in shops and a rise in food prices.
However, in several applications, nitrogen gas, which can be generated as part of an existing compressed air installation, can be used in place of carbon dioxide. Vanda Jones, Executive Director at BCAS explains why operators may want to consider alternatives to carbon dioxide, which can help to lower operating costs and ease supply chain issues.
Hi-line Industries, an established and reputable UK manufacturer of high-quality compressed air purification equipment, is able to offer a cost-effective and proven way of meeting the ongoing demand for replacement compressed air filters. Rather than pay for expensive and often low-efficiency OEM filters, an increasing number are turning to Hi-line’s vast range of alternative elements, which frequently provide an ‘upgrade’ on competitor solutions at less cost.
Hi-line is not only renowned for its proprietary range of high-quality filter housings and energy-efficient elements, but its vast range of alternative elements to ‘upgrade’ and replace competitor products. There is no longer any need to pay a premium for replacement compressed air filters as Hi-line’s alternative range of flow elements can cost circa 60-70% less than those available from compressor manufacturers. When considering there could be four elements on one system, the saving is significant.
