A toxic pollutant produced by burning fossil fuels can be captured from the exhaust gas stream and converted into useful industrial chemicals using only water and air thanks to a new advance... Read more
With water scarcity a growing problem worldwide, University of California, Berkeley, researchers are close to producing a microwave-sized water harvester that will allow you to pull all the... Read more
A new and innovative way to store methane could speed the development of natural gas-powered cars that don’t require the high pressures or cold temperatures of today’s compressed or liquefie... Read more
Thermal systems use heat to produce cold, and vice versa. To do so, a material is needed that can dissipate water vapor particularly well and quickly. A new method simply applies this proper... Read more
The conductivity in the material, he says, is now a million times higher than that of the starting material, and a thousand times higher than anything previously reported using a metal-organ... Read more
University of Adelaide researchers have developed a new nanomaterial that could help reduce carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired power stations. The new nanomaterial, described in the Jo... Read more
Could prove far less expensive than the industry’s current method A newly synthesized material might provide a dramatically improved method for separating the highest-octane components... Read more
This has created a powerful and cost-effective new tool to capture and store, or potentially recycle, carbon dioxide. Emissions from coal power stations could be drastically reduced by a new... Read more
