Researchers at the University of Guanajuato (UGTO), in middle Mexico, developed an extraction column which recovers metals companies use in their production processes; and thus avoid environmental pollution and lessen economic losses.
BASF Corporation has teamed up with Yankee Stadium to knock waste out of the park by tackling zero-waste initiatives at the 2014 New Era Pinstripe Bowl, when the Pennsylvania State University Nittany Lions will face the Boston College Eagles on December 27th at 4:35 p.m.
Materials scientists at Cornell University have developed highly effective “sponges” that can trap carbon and help cut down on greenhouse gases. Carbon capture is gaining momentum in the world’s fight against global warming. Carbon capture involves trapping carbon dioxide chemically before it gets released to the atmosphere. However, most methods are inefficient, corrosive and toxic.
Associate professor of physics at Wake Forest University, in collaboration with SciWorks science center, has developed an interactive mobile exhibit to demonstrate the application of alternative fuels to school children.
Entrepreneurs in Mexico have designed and developed a novel machine which can convert recycled styrofoam into rigid plastic pellets with a 97% conversion rate, which can then be used to manufacture plastic products.
Researchers have developed a new method to manufacture cement that is more greener and stronger. Concrete is widely used as a construction material and is significant contributor of greenhouse-gas emissions leading to global warming. Cement is a major component of concrete.
An international team of researchers from Rice University, Marseille University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed atom-scale computational models to enhance the properties of concrete for general applications.
Local Motors, along with a team of industry experts, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Cincinnati Incorporated, and The Association For Manufacturing Technology (AMT) launched the world’s first 3D-printed car in McCormick Place, Chicago, on September 13, 2014. As part of a victory lap, John B. Rogers, CEO of Local Motors, accompanied by AMT President Doug Woods, drove the car around at the six-day show.
Industrial processes and consumption of fossil fuels release greenhouse gases, a major cause of global warming. An advanced membrane engineered by an international research team led by Easan Sivaniah at the Institute for Integrated Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS) of Kyoto University can address this problem by eliminating greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.
Researchers at the Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI) of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) have successfully developed bionic liquids from by-products obtained from biofuel production. These by-products include hemicellulose and lignin. JBEI is a multi-institutional collaboration headed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab).
