  • Low-cost, 3D-printed filter traps microplastics in water

    The filter is built from 3D-printed disks of biodegradable polymer, stacked one on top of another inside a column.

  • Conductivity measurement of battery electrolyte using the right sensor

    Battery electrolyte conductivity testing helps optimize formulations, improve charging speed, boost efficiency and ensure reliable lithium-ion battery performance.

  • Spec smarter: A 0.2% motor efficiency gain saves billions

    Many plants are paying much more per Watt-hour than they were last year. But manufacturers can claw some of that back by starting to spec motors more thoroughly for TCO, including efficiency.

  • Researchers turn invasive weed into powerful carbon filter

    The bulrush-derived ZVCu@BAC composite maintained high dye-removal performance after six regeneration cycles, removing 90.6% of methylene blue and 88.0% of methyl orange.

  • Are small modular reactors the future, even as old nuclear plants restart?

    To meet energy demands for the AI-age’s data center boom, utilities, big tech and energy officials have looked to mothballed nuclear energy facilities, rather than new construction. That seems far from ideal.

  • Nvidia's energy infrastructure program selects BESS vendors

    Telsa, Hitachi Energy and LG Energy are the first companies to sign onto the AI factory plan.

  • Video: This battery absorbs in the stomach in weeks

    MIT’s ingestible device could deliver healthcare sensing or drug delivery with a digestible power source.

  • TrendForce warns of widening data center power gap

    Global demand could outstrip grid supply by 268 GW as CSPs race to build AI infrastructure.

  • Can data centers stabilize the grid?

    An argument for turning the facilities into an energy resource.

  • US energy storage capacity nearly doubles in 1.5 years

    And a record 20.2 GWh of energy storage deployed in Q2.

  • How data center power demand is reaching LNG markets

    Some LNG suppliers now treat AI and data center power needs as factors that could turn an expected LNG oversupply into a shortage by 2030.

  • US Army Janus program selects 5 nuclear microreactors

    General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems’ reactor can deliver safe power during grid disruptions.

  • ARBURG at Fakuma 2026: Smart, smarter, smartest!

    The focus and centerpiece of the Arburg stand is ‘Digital Services & Software’ across the entire value chain.

  • 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.
