Borouge and Borealis, providers of innovative, value creating plastics solutions,
signed the Responsible Care® Global Charter at the inaugural Gulf Petrochemicals and
Chemicals Association (GPCA) Forum in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
This joint action demonstrates an ongoing commitment to further their leadership
position in health, safety and environmental (HSE) management, and advancing
product stewardship and sustainable development.
This is the first time two leading companies in the Middle East and Europe are
partnering to advance Responsible Care in their respective businesses and to share
best practices and approaches. Borouge is also the first company in the Gulf region
committing to the Charter.
The Responsible Care Global Charter was launched by the International Council of

Infrared sensor for furnace gases
Techint Goodfellow Technologies Inc (TGTI) has signed a licensing agreement with
Professor Murray J Thomson and Salvador Rego Barcena, of the University of Toronto,
to commercialise a new infrared emission spectroscopy optical sensor for real-time
measurement of combustion gases including CO, CO2 and temperature, emitted from
an industrial furnace.
The new passive sensor measures the gas composition and temperature remotely
by analysing the infrared emission spectrum emitted from the furnace – and at a
significantly faster rate than the existing technology.
Unisearch Associates Inc will exclusively manufacture the new technology. This
collaborative effort was made possible through the Ontario Centres of Excellence
(OCE) whose mandate is to facilitate partnerships between research and development
initiatives and industry for successful commercialisation of cutting edge technologies.
