Low Pressure Superconducting Hydrogen Compound Discovered
We have always thought of hydrogen as a fuel. Yet, there are many possibilities for this interesting element. Normally found in gaseous state, hydrogen is the most common in the universe. Recently, scientists from Carnegie Institution in Washington D.C., have found a way to compress hydrogen in such a manner that it becomes not only solid, but turns into a metallic superconducting state.
Synthetic Leaves Performing Artificial Photosynthesis
A team of scientists at MIT and Michigan along with researchers at the University of California have discovered that artificial photosynthesis could produce electric energy.
Tesla's Wireless Power Transmission Reinvented by Witricity
Eric Giler, chief executive of US firm Witricitywireless, talks about a new system that can deliver power to devices without the need for wires. The new system exploits simple physics principles and can be used to charge a range of electronic devices over several meters.
Potable Water Tank Mixer Eliminates Stagnation Utilizing Solar Power
The company SolarBee has created a potable-water tank mixer, designed to eliminate thermal stratification and stagnation in potable water.
Sub-Nano Platinum Particles Make Fuel Cells 13 Times Better
Nano-sized machinery makes me shiver. Thinking at a molecular and atomic level when speaking about technology makes me wonder even more. Even if I consider myself a logic person, extremely small and extremely large objects impress me.
CO2-Capturing Molecule Discovered by Accident
Accidental discoveries have always been the most groundbreaking discoveries in the entire history of science, because magnificent things were found without us thinking of them, not taking the usual way to see things, and therefore unleashing new possibilities.
Scientists Developing Artificial Leaves to Produce Energy
Mimicking nature has been man's dream since he tried inventing the airplane, and even earlier. Mimicking a leaf for obtaining energy from the Sun has been even more challenging than learning to fly, though, until now, nobody succeeded imitating the evolution or creation or whatever our nature is made of.
DIY: Rick's Cheap Solar Panel Installation Powers His Home
A lot of people want to be green in using energy but they don't know where to start, or they don't have enough money/time at their disposal to actually start making something useful.
Water Desalination Plants Powered by Renewable Energy
Due to the freshwater crisis from places like Dubai and Australia, inventors around the world have started looking for ways to convert seawater and make it potable. Most of these desalination plants require a huge amount of energy, being powered from non-renewable sources.
Sahimo: Hydrogen Powered Car Consuming 1L/568 km!
Something truly amazing comes from Turkey: some students from Sakarya University just released a prototype of what seems to be a car - but...
