Black soldier fly larvae emerge as safe solution for organic waste disposal
During trials of the new approach, the larvae ate spoiled food, sewage sludge and livestock manure, thus removing most human-pathogenic viruses.
Arburg at Chinaplas 2026: Everything for the Asian market
The new Allrounder Trend electric machine concept will celebrate its Asian premiere at Chinaplas 2026.
Paving block made entirely from recycled mollusk shells, mining waste
The team replaced traditional mortar and concrete aggregates with a shell-based material made from Acanthocardia tuberculata, an edible saltwater clam commonly canned and sold commercially.
Refrigerant alternatives and industry adoption
The shift away from high global warming potential fluorinated gases in cooling systems requires technical re-evaluation of the balance between thermodynamic efficiency, operational safety and total lifecycle climate impact.
Fish scales could pave the way for human cornea regeneration
Following thorough analysis, the team found that fish scales showed strong potential for corneal repair and regeneration, demonstrating functional success in lab tests and in implanted experimental animals.
Hypersonic heat: Next-gen ceramics could solve re-entry ablation issues
When craft undergo atmospheric re-entry, ablative thermal protection systems (TPSs) save the day. Sometimes they fail. Replacing them is expensive. New research sheds light on how to elevate TPS performance.
Liquid metal and light power green hydrogen production
An economical means of extracting sustainable hydrogen from seawater or freshwater relies on liquid gallium, a metal with a low melting point, to pull the gas directly from water when exposed to light.
Digital isn’t enough: The real challenge behind flowmeter innovation
From the oil and gas sector and chemical processing to beverage production and HVAC systems, countless industries depend on precise flow measurements in their operations. Understanding the movement of liquids and gases within a system is essential for achieving optimal performance.
SEEPEX expands pump offering for the growing US renewable energy natural gas sector
New pump sizes and systems offer higher flow rates, optimized substrate handling and maintenance-friendly technology tailored to U.S. renewable natural gas facilities.
9 essential tips to keep lab measurements accurate, compliant and efficient
In today’s fast-evolving laboratory environment, achieving accurate and reliable measurements is more critical than ever.
Merits and challenges of perovskite solar cells
Despite performance and low-cost fabrication gains for these solar cells, challenges remain concerning long-term stability and manufacturing scale-up.
Using clay to rapidly control severe hemorrhaging
A suite of injectable hemostatic bandages derived from biomedical materials halts bleeding and encourages blood to clot faster.
The printer for the smallest details
Motors, encoders and other components from FAULHABER propel this printer to yield objects visible only under a scanning electron microscope.
Harwin, Nicomatic and The New Materialist partner to replace plastics in electronic components
The focus is on regenerative biomaterials capable of replacing the traditional plastics used for the connector industry, including for high-performance and high-reliability units.
New gel infuses oxygen to treat persistent wounds
The new gel is expected to address what researchers explain is the cause of many chronic wounds: insufficient oxygen delivery to the deepest layers of damaged tissue.
New mouth patch promises to detect inflammation before symptoms appear
To detect biomarkers of inflammation in the mouth, the team created a multi-layer sensor capable of functioning in the wet oral environment and remaining attached while the wearer is talking and eating.
Breakthrough powder could help save antibiotics
The team explained that using metal complexes that, when activated under blue light, produce highly reactive compounds that destroy the proteins.
Direct lithium extraction: Revolutionizing the lithium supply chain
The technology provides a more rapid, environmentally friendly and economically viable alternative to conventional methods for lithium production.
Company unveils pothole-patching truck that repairs up to 146 potholes a day with heated asphalt spray
The Cimline P5 can patch one pothole in just two minutes with asphalt spray, significantly increasing the average number of potholes covered per day from 20 to 146.
Plastic preferred as solar hydrogen photocatalyst
Electrically conductive plastic replaces pricey platinum to harvest hydrogen from water using sunlight.
