Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Pohang University of Science & Technology scientists have developed a catalyst for the urea oxidation reaction, enhancing hydrogen generation efficiency. Professor Kangwoo Cho and PhD candidate Jiseon Kim from the Division of Environmental Science & Engineering at Pohang University (POSTECH) collaborated with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) to devise a novel […]

U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) researchers make their case that millions of U.S. households would benefit from heat pumps. But the cost of installing the technology needs to come down to make their use a more attractive proposition. The findings, detailed in the journal Joule, quantify the costs and benefits of […]

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Osaka University researchers succeeded in biomanufacturing a sugar product using chemically synthesized sugar for the first time. With refinement of this technology, one can envision a future society in which the sugar required for biomanufacturing can be obtained ‘anytime, anywhere, and at high rate’. In the future, biomanufacturing using chemically synthesized sugar is expected […]

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… University of Leicester scientists have made an insight into superlubricity, where surfaces experience extremely low levels of friction. This could benefit future technologies by reducing energy lost to friction by moving parts. As many of us are stepping carefully to avoid a slip and fall in the frosty weather, scientists led by the University […]

Tokyo Institute of Technology scientists report in a new study environmentally benign inverse-perovskites with high energy conversion efficiency have potential for practical application as thermoelectric materials (TEMs). The recent study published in Advanced Science, the researchers presented “inverse”-perovskite-based high ZT TEMs with the chemical formula Ba3BO, where B refers to silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge).
