PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- KuCoin concluded the second weekend of Tomorrowland Belgium 2026 by marking its ninth anniversary alongside its global partners and community, while celebrating the broader progress of the digital asset industry over the past nine years. The milestone formed part of a memorable weekend that also brought an entirely new lineup of artists to the Celestia Stage and revealed the next chapter of its evolved visual identity, with the butterfly-inspired structure emerging in KuCoin's signature green. Together, these moments connected KuCoin's anniversary narrative, Tomorrowland's creative energy and Celestia's vision of trust, discovery and transformation.

KuCoin's ninth anniversary was celebrated through its broader "Beyond the Signal" campaign, which looks beyond short-term market movements toward the trust, innovation and infrastructure enabling the industry's long-term development. During Weekend 2, KuCoin marked the milestone through the "On Cloud 9 Skybox Experience," bringing partners and community representatives together to recognize nine years of shared growth and industry progress.

Throughout the weekend, the Celestia Stage offered festivalgoers an entirely new program of artists, including Mark Knight, Mr. Belt & Wezol, Belters Only, Bingo Players with Iceman, Dada Life, Sander van Doorn and Dannic b2b Dyro. From house and progressive sounds to high-energy electronic sets, the performances created a vibrant festival atmosphere, bringing audiences from around the world together through music, movement and shared celebration.

Following its debut during Weekend 1, Celestia returned with an evolved visual identity, transforming from a young butterfly with a transparent roof and subtle touches of KuCoin green as the color gradually spread across its translucent wings, forming vivid emerald patterns while preserving the stage's light and open character. Shaped by the music, energy and connections shared across both weekends, this evolution symbolized growth, trust and possibility, while reflecting KuCoin's nine-year journey and the digital asset industry's broader transformation from an emerging, trading-focused technology into trusted infrastructure increasingly connected to finance, culture and everyday life.

The Celestia Stage brings together the perspectives of KuCoin and Tomorrowland: a belief in the power of imagination, technology and community to connect people across borders. Tomorrowland invites people to explore new worlds through music and creativity, while KuCoin is working to make the future of digital finance more accessible, trusted and human.

As Tomorrowland's Official Exclusive Crypto Exchange and Crypto Payments Partner for Tomorrowland Winter and Tomorrowland Belgium 2026 - 2028, KuCoin will continue working with Tomorrowland to create meaningful real-world connections. The shared vision remains clear: lasting transformation is built through trust, brought to life through innovation and carried forward by global communities.

High-density polymer targets floating, dusting and uneven distribution challenges common with powder-based sludge solidifiers

LOS ANGELES, July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- For contractors and operators working with high-water, high-viscosity sludge, one of the most common field challenges is getting treatment material into the sludge rather than leaving it on the surface.

Qingdao SOCO New Material Co., Ltd. is addressing that problem with the launch of SLUSORB 985, a high-density superabsorbent polymer (SAP) developed for sludge solidification under challenging field conditions.

Unlike traditional powder-based SAP products that may float, cake, dust or distribute unevenly in dense sludge environments, SLUSORB 985 is engineered with a high density structure designed to overcome floating issues and penetrate high-viscosity sludge effectively. Once inside the sludge layer, the polymer absorbs free water and helps convert flowing or unstable sludge into a more manageable, non-flowing mass.

The new product is designed for applications such as tailings sludge, coal-washing sludge, sand-washing slurry, river sediment, port dredging sludge, underground sludge ponds, enclosed sludge tanks and other high-viscosity industrial sludge environments.

Many sludge treatment sites do not have ideal mixing conditions, said a spokesperson for SOCO. SLUSORB 985 was developed for those real-world situations. The goal is to make sludge solidification easier to apply, more efficient in contact with free water, and more practical for handling, transport and disposal.

SLUSORB 985 supports a simplified application process. Operators spread the SLUSORB 985 evenly over the sludge surface, allow the material to sink by gravity, let the polymer absorb free water, and then handle the solidified sludge for transport or disposal.

The product is intended to help users:

  • Improve penetration into high-viscosity sludge
  • Reduce floating and improve penetration into sludge layers
  • Minimize dusting and caking associated with powders
  • Lower dependence on heavy mechanical stirring
  • Improve sludge stability before excavation, loading, transport and disposal
  • Support safer, cleaner and more efficient field operations

The launch expands SOCO's sludge solidification portfolio and reflects the company's focus on application-specific polymer development. Rather than offering only standard SAP formats, SOCO develops products for defined jobsite conditions, including sludge treatment, drilling and mining fluids, dredging, environmental remediation and industrial waste handling.
