Smart maintenance meets sustainability — a technician uses a cloud-based CMMS to help build and monitor green infrastructure, reducing downtime and environmental impact.

Implementing a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) can feel overwhelming. You’ve got legacy systems, skeptical team members, and limited time to get it right. 

But don’t worry—this CMMS implementation guide will walk you through the entire process, one step at a time. Whether switching from paper logs or upgrading outdated software, this guide will help you move on confidently. Let’s break it down.

Step 1: Define Your Goals

Start with clarity. Why do you need a CMMS? What problems are you trying to solve?

Common goals include:

• Reducing equipment downtime

• Tracking maintenance costs

• Automating preventive maintenance

The atmospheric air cooling system represents just one component of Medochemie’s broader environmental strategy. Industry analysts note that pharmaceutical manufacturing has traditionally been energy-intensive, with temperature-controlled environments, specialized equipment, and strict cleanliness requirements all contributing to high energy consumption.

The post Medochemie Demonstrates 15% Energy Reduction Through Innovative Cooling Technology in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing appeared first on Green Prophet.

In an industry where temperature control is critical and energy consumption typically high, Cyprus-based pharmaceutical manufacturer Medochemie has achieved notable efficiency improvements through an innovative atmospheric air cooling system that reduces energy consumption by 15% while maintaining the exacting standards required for pharmaceutical production.

The system, developed by the company’s engineering team, has earned recognition with the Cyprus Innovation Award and represents an important advancement in sustainable manufacturing practices for the pharmaceutical sector.

Medochemie’s Energy Innovation Addresses Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Challenges

Pharmaceutical manufacturing presents unique energy challenges, with strict temperature and humidity requirements necessary to ensure product quality and stability. Cooling systems typically account for a significant portion of a pharmaceutical facility’s energy consumption, making them a prime target for efficiency improvements.

Medochemie’s solution addresses this challenge by cooling atmospheric air by 10°C before it enters the facility’s air-cooled chiller system. This pre-cooling significantly reduces the energy load on the chiller, resulting in a 15% reduction in electricity consumption while maintaining the precise environmental conditions required for pharmaceutical

Virgin Galactic astronauts. Will space travel be sustainable? Sustainable Space Fuels?

The post Can we fly guilt-free with Britain’s new stance on sustainable aviation biofuel? appeared first on Green Prophet.

The United Kingdom has taken a significant step in advancing sustainable aviation by approving an increase in the co-processing blend limit for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) from 5% to 30%. This decision, endorsed by the UK Ministry of Defence and incorporated into Defence Standard 91-091, aims to accelerate the production and adoption of SAF within the aviation sector.

Safety is paramount in aviation fuel standards. The updated Defence Standard 91-091 ensures that SAF produced through co-processing meets stringent aviation fuel specifications. This standard aligns with global benchmarks, such as ASTM D1655, guaranteeing that the fuel is compatible with existing aircraft engines and infrastructure. Industry stakeholders, including BP and the International Air Transport Association (IATA), have collaborated to achieve this milestone, emphasizing the fuel’s safety and performance.

Britain’s Leadership in Sustainable Aviation

Meanwhile, Singapore’s GenZero, in partnership with the World Economic Forum, has launched the Green Fuel Forward Initiative, aiming to scale SAF across the Asia-Pacific region. This initiative unites airlines, aerospace manufacturers, and financiers to create a self-sustaining SAF market—one that can meet the demand of one of the world’s fastest-growing aviation hubs.

A sustainable aviation alternative that enables intrepid luxury travel, OceanSky Cruises’s airship is a 100-metre-long hybrid aircraft, combining buoyancy from helium with aerodynamic lift created by the shape of its hull. Driven forward by four propellors, the vehicle can fly continuously for days. Can it run on SAF?

In the skies above Britain and across the Asia-Pacific, a green revolution is accelerating—not in the fields, but in the jet streams. Two major international moves this month signal that Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is no longer a niche technology but a critical pillar of the future of flight. And as Earth-bound aircraft start to go green, a tantalizing question arises: can space travel do the same?

The United Kingdom has taken a decisive step in accelerating SAF adoption by raising its co-processing blend limit from 5% to 30%. Endorsed by the UK Ministry of Defence and enshrined in Defence Standard 91-091, this regulatory leap allows waste oils and renewable feedstocks to be refined alongside fossil fuels—without requiring massive infrastructure overhauls.

Industry players like BP and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) have applauded the move, highlighting that SAF produced under these standards meets rigorous global aviation fuel benchmarks such as ASTM D1655. This isn’t a backdoor greenwashing scheme

But with popularity comes complexity. Indigenous leaders and activists have raised concerns about cultural appropriation, overharvesting of ayahuasca vines, and the commercialization of sacred traditions. Some Amazonian communities are pushing back, creating frameworks for reciprocity and ethical sourcing. 

Organizations like The Indigenous Medicine Conservation Fund are advocating for fair compensation, intellectual property protection, and cultural sovereignty for the original stewards of the medicine.

Once whispered about in underground circles and jungle clearings, the psychedelic brew known as ayahuasca is now a global phenomenon—and in 2025, its reach shows no sign of slowing. From Silicon Valley executives to trauma survivors, the call of the vine continues to draw seekers from all corners of the world. But the practice, steeped in centuries of Amazonian tradition, is facing new pressures as demand grows and legality shifts across borders.

The spiritual and medicinal use of ayahuasca originates with Indigenous peoples of the Amazon basin, particularly in Peru, Brazil, Colombia, and Ecuador. In places like Iquitos and Tarapoto, ayahuasca ceremonies are still held in malokas (circular huts), guided by shamans who sing icaros—healing songs meant to direct the energies of the ceremony.
