Medicine & TechnologyScientists at Northeastern University have turned cow manure into a filter that separates salt in seawater to make it into drinking water. They hope this technology can address the global water scarcity.
An unusual plague hit New Zealand in the 1930s when pants of farmers would explode or suddenly burst into flames when they are working on the field or riding on a horse. But what caused these bizarre explosions?
Researchers have just used lasers to examine further how water surface may function as a template for the molecules' regular arrangement, not to mention what physiochemical mechanisms are triggering this.
Chalmers University of Technology researchers found that mixing multiple molecules could result in a new type of glass that has potential applications ranging from medicine, solar cell technology, and advanced digital screens.
Researchers were able to predict the behavior of troublesome ions during water processing, so they were able to develop a new ion-removal process to improve the conversion of seawater into fresh water.
A new study improved the standard spectral resolution of a microwave kinetic inductance detector by preventing photon energies from leaking the superconductors.
Engineers from Lancaster University propose a new way of producing renewable biofuel additives using radiation derived from nuclear waste to achieve zero carbon emission targets.
University of Illinois developed a new approach involving zeolites to make water molecules and its fluidity as better catalyst for chemical reactions instead of harmful solvents.
Researchers from Purdue University created the world's whitest paint ever that works through radiative cooling that reduces the need for air conditioning and helps curb global warming.
