Summary: • Scientists have developed a new process to turn biodiesel waste into useful products • The method reduces emissions and energy use by working at room temperature and on site. • This innovation helps biodiesel producers make more profit…
Summary: • MIT researchers have created a lightweight polymer film that blocks almost all gases. • This film could help prevent corrosion in solar cells and extend the shelf life of food and medicine. • The material is stronger than…
Summary: • Scientists have developed a new thin film that helps produce hydrogen from water using sunlight more efficiently. • This film assembles itself and is easier to make than traditional materials used in solar water splitting. • The technology…
Image for Illustration Purpose Only. Summary: • Lithium-ion batteries often lose power in the cold and become unstable in heat. • Penn State researchers developed a new battery design for reliable performance across extreme temperatures. • The design uses special…
Summary: • Scientists have created a battery system that stores electricity and produces hydrogen for clean cooking. • The system aims to help remote African communities that lack access to electricity and rely on polluting fuels. • This technology…
Summary: • Scientists have developed a new fiber made from proteins using yeast, which is strong, biodegradable, and avoids harmful chemicals. • This new fiber requires far less land and water than cotton, freeing up resources that could be used…
Summary : • Scientists are developing new ultra-black materials to make solar towers absorb more sunlight • These materials could help concentrated solar power become a more reliable and efficient energy source • Improved solar absorption means cleaner energy and…
In the fight against single-use plastics, the most sophisticated solutions often come from the forest floor rather than a chemical lab. We are all familiar with the plastic coatings that line our coffee cups and the cling wrap that covers…
Image for Illustration Only. Hydrogen has long been hailed as the “holy grail” of clean energy—a fuel capable of powering heavy industry and transportation without emitting a single ounce of carbon. However, this dream has faced a stubborn economic reality:…
Every time we stream a movie, back up our photos, or ask an AI a question, a data center somewhere is working hard—and getting hot. To keep these massive digital libraries running, cooling systems consume vast amounts of electricity, yet…
