[Cleaver-Brooks Helps Plant Go Off-the-Grid]
Cleaver-Brooks
The [Campbell's plant] in Toronto generates up to 93% of its own steam using a combined heat and power (CHP) solution. The plant uses a natural gas fired engine to generate electricity and produce heat. Heat produced from the engine generates steam that Campbell's uses to cook soup. The plant operates a 4.6 MW combustion gas turbine generator and a Cleaver-Brooks [Max-Fire® heat recovery steam generator] (HRSG) with duct burner that produces 90,000 lb/hr of steam without city electricity.

CHALLENGE OF THE MONTH
[Crypto Conundrum]
A security consultant wants to monitor the communications of a target who is using a system secured by an SSL/TLS connection thought to be unbreakable. The connection's encryption keys are generated by an elliptic curve random number generator. Is it possible for the consultant to break into the target's communications? How could he/she do it?

TECH ARTICLE
[Choosing the Right Cable Connectors to Avoid Downtime]
"Failure of a single electrical connector can stop production in a split second. Repair time depends mainly on the type of connection that is used. The right connector can make repair time a matter of minutes, versus several hours of hardwiring. The right cord grip, cable gland, or connector can also help to prevent failure in the first place."
