An interdisciplinary team of experts in green chemistry, engineering and physics at Flinders University in Australia has developed a safer and more sustainable approach to extract and recover gold from ore and electronic waste.This post […]
Industries that need ultra-pure water—including semiconductor, battery, pharmaceutical, food and beverage companies—are expanding in Arizona. One of the most overlooked challenges for these businesses is what gets left behind in the pursuit of clean water: […]
A recent uptick in battery-related fires has drawn attention to the challenge of identifying defects that can cause these catastrophic malfunctions, but are rarely obvious to the naked eye. In hopes of preventing the dangerous […]
The UK has cut its carbon emissions by 50.4% since 1990 levels, a group of experts tasked with advising the government said on Wednesday.This post was originally published on this site.
Europe’s largest vanadium redox flow battery—located at the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology—has achieved an important research milestone: In a controlled test, it was possible to successfully demonstrate for the first time how renewable energies […]
Solar and wind energy are highly variable, dependent on the day, weather and location of the facilities. At times, they can generate more electricity than is needed, but they can also fall short when demand […]
An international team of scientists has developed a biodegradable material that could slash global energy consumption without using any electricity, according to a new study published today.This post was originally published on this site.
When you think of solar panels, you usually picture giant cells mounted to face the sun. But what if “solar” cells could be charged using fluorescent lights?This post was originally published on this site.
Antimony selenosulfide (Sb2(S,Se)3) solar cells are emerging as a strong candidate for next-generation thin-film photovoltaics due to their tunable bandgap, strong optical absorption and composition from Earth-abundant, nontoxic elements.This post was originally published on this […]
Time-consuming testing and computer simulations are bottlenecks in the design of new materials. A thesis from the University of Gothenburg aims to develop an AI model that can efficiently determine the durability and strength of […]
