VinFuture Foundation will hold its Online Science Dialogue series' second installment discussing "Renewable energy and new materials for the future" on November 12th, 2021. The Dialogue will see the attendance of world-class scientists, most notably Professor Konstantin (Kostya) Sergeevich Novoselov, a Nobel Prize laureate in Physics. The event is aimed at bringing science and technology closer to the general public with solutions that have high real-world applicability.
A study recently found higher electromagnetism levels caused cellular changes through underwater cables, in crustaceans particularly crabs, affecting blood cells.
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.
Research explains how tiny bacteria can be a solution to the lack of renewable energy. The quest for the most eco-friendly and low-cost infrastructure for green energy begins with the bacteria Shewanella oneidensis.
Researchers recently developed a new type of catalyst that could break ammonia under lower temperatures. This catalyst will pave the way to a greener future by harvesting hydrogen fuels effortlessly without emissions.
Advancements on water-related energy generation, also known as hydropower, had been among the key interests of experts to develop an effective and sustainable energy.
Two new solar power generating stations are now producing electricity for more than 1,000 homes. One of the stations is named after Hydro-Quebec's first female engineer.
Scientists use pyrolysis treatment and mathematical models to convert lint-microfibers generated in clothes dryers into a sustainable source of renewable energy.
In the never-ending search for ways to harness energy, researchers are looking at a new method - using your clothes to harvest your own kinetic energy and power your electronic devices.
Solar power is being used as an energy source in over 100 airports around the world. With the empty spaces airports have, why not turn them into massive solar farms?
Some experts claim that frozen wind turbines played a major role in Texas power outages. As freezing weather conditions continue to threaten the southern United States, and an excess supply for heating has overloaded the energy grid, Texas suffered significant power failures.
The US Department of Energy has recently awarded a grant to RTI International, CEMEX -- leading cement, concrete, and aggregates supplier on developing a CO2 capture system and commercially available carbon utilization solution.
Computer scientists and experts in energy technology have recently teamed up to leverage artificial intelligence or AI's diagnostic power to make solar-power plants more efficient.
With the help of nanomaterials, researchers found a way to improve hybrid flow batteries' performance - making the store energy longer at a lower cost, fewer location restraints, and zero emissions.
Renewable energy is not only important for global warming, but also for entire ecosystems affected by logging, mining, and the negative health impacts of indoor pollution. International scientists believe that one way of reaching the sustainable development goal of clean and affordable energy is sourcing plant power from plants and fungi.
Hydrogen fuel as a renewable source of energy is done by splitting water. A team from Virginia Tech developed a new technique to efficiently split water by chemically reassembling a catalyst.
