  • Tips for Preventing Preventable Hearing Loss

    Hearing loss caused by prolonged exposure to music or a noisy work environment can be gradual with the first signs being missed background noises (a squeaking door, the ticking of a clock) to affected conversations.

  • A Greener Nuclear Industry with Graphene

    Graphene-based membranes have the potential to reduce energy and environmental costs incurred by the nuclear power sector.

  • Blockchain Advocates Target the Energy Sector

    Blockchain technology can can allow millions of energy devices to transact with each other while providing support to utilities and grid operators to integrate renewable energy capacity at lower cost.

  • PEC Cell Yields Hydrogen from Polluted Air

    A photoelectrochemical cell produces clean air and hydrogen from air contaminated with volatile organic compounds.

  • Covestro Polycarbonates Keep the Lights on in Industrial Environments

    Shat-R-Shield has added a new product to its line of lightweight corrosion resistant LED fixtures – the Incoplas™ LED Hybrid.

  • How Technology Has Changed the Construction Industry

    To say that the construction industry has changed with advances made in technology is an understatement.

  • Stationary Road Weather Sensor is Non-Invasive and Includes No Moving Parts

    Lufft has released a new sensor capable of detecting road conditions, surface temperatures and wet or snowy conditions.

  • MEMS-Based IMU/AHRS Integrated into Neya’s Custom UxAB Module

    The module will be integrated into Northrop Grumman’s AEODRS for the U.S. Navy.

  • Cave-in Occurs at Hanford Waste Site

    Officials responded to reports of a cave-in of a 20-foot section of a tunnel that is used to store contaminated materials at the Hanford nuclear waste site in eastern Washington State.

  • New Flavin-based Electron Bifurcation Method Could Lead to Better Catalytic Processes

    Researchers found that a unique Flavin molecule generates two levels of energy in a single precursor compound.

  • New Glow Stick Discovery could Help Detect Cancer

    Glow sticks used at concerts and worn by children may be a new key player in detecting cancer. Glow sticks use chemiluminescence, a.k.a. chemical light to create that bright glow. Researchers found that chemiluminescence can be used to diagnose diseases through identification of biological samples.

  • AEP Expands Energy Storage to Tap PJM Market

    The battery system was installed to help extend the life of electric distribution equipment in the area. With additional software, the utility now will be able to use the energy storage system to generate revenue.

  • Ductless Fume Hoods: A Versatile Solution for Laboratory Processing

    Whether designing a new laboratory or updating an existing one, laboratory managers need to consider safety, efficiency and cost-effectiveness when deciding on a fume hood design.

  • Baker's Yeast is the New Penicillin

    Biologists at Imperial College London have found a new way to produce penicillin. They have re-engineered yeast cells to produce nonribosomal peptide antibiotic penicillin, which helps fight against bacterial diseases. This yeast was shown to have antibacterial properties against streptococcus bacteria in laboratory experiments.

  • Leading Edge Expands Lithium Stake in Sweden

    The Rotmyran project lies 20 kilometers north of Bergby, where the company in April announced the discovery of high grade lithium mineralization in drilling.

  • Transistor Technology Could Make the Impossible, Possible

    Researchers are looking to the transistor laser to achieve much faster computer processing speeds.

  • VIDEO: New Sanitizers made of Paper can Kill Bacteria

    A team of researchers at Rutgers University have created a new, inexpensive way to kill bacteria and sanitize. This new product is made out of paper, and could potentially be used in clothing to protect from harmful bacteria.

  • Energy Storage Could Replace Indian Point Nuke, Study Says

    The study says that 450 MW of energy storage -- in combination with additional wind, solar, and energy efficiency -- can help fill the gaps created by the closure of Indian Point.

  • New Coating is the Next Level of Rust Resistance

    Chemists at Nagoya Institute of Technology in Japan have invented a new and simple coating process that colors metals, strengthens performance and saves energy.

  • Engineering Insight: Industry Preferences for Counters and Timers

    This graph summarizes the search tendencies displayed by Engineering360 users with respect to the industry they identified with while registering.
