  • Flywheel energy storage systems: Challenges and solutions

    The flywheel energy storage system is a solid option for managing power produced by renewable energy sources.

  • Vanzetti Engineering unveils ESK-IMO for the marine and industrial markets

    The ESK-IMO removable submerged cryogenic pump is designed to meet the technological challenges of small-scale LNG terminals, floating storage and regasification units and other fast-growing market segments.

  • Catalyst cuts green hydrogen production cost

    The use of an upgraded titanium dioxide catalyst optimizes the adsorption and activation energy of water, offering a low-cost path to increased hydrogen evolution.

  • Waste plastic as a hydrogen source

    Instead of becoming a persistent environment pollutant or requiring complex, energy-intensive processes for recycling, plastic waste can represent a source of hydrogen production.

  • Ammonia from wastewater: How we’re turning a pollutant into fertilizer and clean fuel

    Research demonstrates how new catalysts and renewable electricity can convert nitrate, one of the most common water pollutants, directly into ammonia.

  • From interplanetary spaceships to lunar reactors, our future in space looks nuclear-powered

    While the technological ambitions continue to expand, the idea of using nuclear power beyond Earth is far from new.

  • How 3D printing reshapes battery design

    Custom-shaped, high-performance battery materials can be printed under ordinary conditions to eliminate design constraints.

  • Why transparency is needed in lithium-ion battery recycling

    A new GAIA report finds that battery recyclers report almost nothing about what they release, recover or burn, leaving regulators and communities to find out the hard way.

  • Securing the future: Multi-point latching solutions for global energy storage systems

    The customized multi-point latching system delivers outstanding physical protection, waterproof and dustproof performance for high standard energy storage equipment.

  • Converting heat pumps to DC: A cool way to save energy and costs

    Standard residential air-source heat pumps can be retrofitted to operate directly on DC power to conserve electricity and operating costs.

  • The current situation: Electric motor failures

    Bad enough for a basic, last generation electric motor, modern equipment is more complicated.

  • Take the heat out of oil fractionation

    The energy consumption and economics of oil separation can be reduced via a new approach to membrane-based crude oil fractionation.

  • UK to advance hydrogen for industrial heating

    A real-world, industrial-scale testbed will help manufacturers trial hydrogen fuel-switching in a controlled environment.

  • Nuclear engineers design efficient data center cooling system

    A new liquid cooling technology adapted from the nuclear power sector cuts data center energy waste while boosting chip performance.

  • Water treatment via photocatalytic platform: No chemicals needed

    A flexible microreactor technology effectively eliminates contaminants from water using sunlight.

  • A rare opportunity for a magnet revolution

    The demand for rare-earth magnets for electric motors in cars, robotics and industrial machinery is high, but supply chain logistics are slacking with bottlenecking, trade issues and transportation delays.

  • A mobile solution for produced water treatment

    Mobile all-in-one ozone water treatment containers are engineered to transform how industrial operators manage and reuse produced water.

  • Where there's a roof, there's a way: Rooftop wind power is primed to soar

    Distributed wind turbines offer numerous advantages, which have sparked the interest of many potential customers.

  • Solar-powered production of water and minerals

    A new desalination method produces drinking water from seawater without chemical additives and separates and collects salts instead of dumping them as harmful brine waste.

  • Geothermal energy is gaining momentum

    The tech is ready. The business model works. And the U.S.-Iran conflict has constrained a key competing energy supply.
