  • Beer yeast repurposed for filtering out lead in water

    The researchers suggest that the tons of discarded yeast from beer breweries could potentially filter out lead from contaminated water quickly.

  • Eggshells eyed for recovering rare earth elements

    The approach promises to offer an environmentally friendly method for extracting the REEs necessary for developing the permanent magnets used in electric cars and wind turbines.

  • Copper-treated stainless steel promises to kill bacteria without antibiotics or chemicals

    The new method relies on the natural antibacterial properties of copper in combination with small needle-like structures etched on the surface of stainless steel and designed to kill harmful bacteria including E. coli and Staphylococcus.

  • Major causes of power system failure

    Review the man-made and natural causes of power system loss and blackouts.

  • Rapid Locking System expands HVAC/R education initiatives with new training center and launch of mobile showroom

    Contractors, engineers and wholesalers can learn about evolving industry trends, and how to successfully install and implement press fittings to maximize their businesses.

  • MHI equips the ITER system

    Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. manufactures major components for the ITER project, contributing to the advancement of nuclear fusion development.

  • Introducing the new 148VK: An ETRI cooling fan for the whole world

    Features include a wider temperature range, an integrated self-tapping screw on the ground boss to facilitate mounting and the tropicalization of fan motors.

  • More power for enclosure cooling

    Benefit from an enclosure cooling solution, which combines power, efficiency and simplicity.

  • Educating an AI-ready workforce

    The annual program is designed to help build the next generation of AI-ready researchers.

  • New accessory: Flexible pulley for multiple deflection of pull wires over longer distances

    This emergency-stop function pulley is engineered for conveyors that go round bends, or other extensive and non-linear hazardous areas.

  • Comau presents its new cell formation and testing technologies at The Battery Show 2024

    The company will also present its latest developments in automated manufacturing systems for battery cells, modules and complete packs.

  • New Lego-like bricks built from 90% recycled plastic waste

    Dubbed PLAEX-crete — which stands for PL-astic, A-ggregate, and EX-truder — the blocks are described by the startup as lightweight, durable and eco-friendly and are intended to make the construction process easier.

  • Spider silk-inspired sensors imperceptible to the wearer

    Inspired by the web structures created by spiders using minimal material, the fibers used to construct these sensors are roughly 50 times thinner than human hair.

  • Team develops a spider leg-inspired soft robot

    During tests in the lab, the new soft robot touched assorted delicate objects — specifically a primrose stamen, spider web and pollen grain — without damaging them.

  • A second life for spent coffee grounds

    Spent coffee grounds possess several highly desirable chemical components that are potentially useful for some other applications with little or nothing to do with consuming.

  • Fundamentals of electrochemical corrosion

    Engineers are leveraging the interplay between corrosion and electrical resistance to develop more effective strategies for managing corrosion. These strategies include material selection, protective coatings, cathodic protection, and environmental control, all of which will be covered in this article.

  • Thin film can turn normal glasses into night vision glasses

    According to the researchers, the filter is substantially thinner — even thinner than a piece of cling wrap — and could eventually be placed onto regular eyewear.

  • A spectroscopic stampede against illegal ivory trade

    The laser-based method devised to distinguish between illegal elephant ivory and legal mammoth tusk ivory can be of value in stemming illicit trade.

  • Qosina introduces new iDOT single-use sensor bag ports from Polestar Technologies

    The gamma-stable bag ports offer non-invasive monitoring and come pre-calibrated for plug-and-play use.
