Microalgae are gaining recognition as sustainable, nutrient-rich sources of bioactive compounds, including proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates, which are essential for various food and health-related applications.This post was originally published on this site.
If we want to use hydrogen as fuel for cars or airplanes, or for chemical storage of excess renewable energy, it would be most efficient if it were liquid. However, this would require cooling it […]
PFAS are in Miami’s rainwater. And it is the latest evidence the synthetic “forever chemicals”—that have raised health concerns for people and wildlife—hitch a ride on the water cycle, using the complex system to circulate […]
New research reveals that sodium nitroprusside (SNP) treatment significantly reduces decay and maintains the appearance of walnuts, enhancing both disease resistance and overall quality. This breakthrough offered a practical solution for extending the shelf life […]
How we use land and feed a growing global population, and the burden we place on natural habitats in pursuit of nutrition, will again take center stage at the annual global climate change conference, COP29, […]
Using hydrogen to generate electricity does not cause any climate-damaging emissions. But storing and transporting the gas pose technical challenges. With this in mind, Fraunhofer researchers use ammonia, a hydrogen derivative that is easier to […]
