New Process More Efficiently Recycles Excess CO2 Into Fuel, Study Finds
For years, researchers have worked to repurpose excess atmospheric carbon dioxide into new chemicals, fuels and other products traditionally made from hydrocarbons harvested from fossil fuels.
Zombie Movies Prepared You for the Pandemic
Tales of post-apocalyptic landscapes in which few survivors emerge into a new and much different world have long been popular tales woven by screenwriters and authors.
Analytical Measurements Can Predict Organic Solar Cell Stability
North Carolina State University-led researchers have developed an analytical measurement “framework” which could allow organic solar cell researchers and manufacturers to determine which materials will produce the most stable solar cells prior to manufacture.
'Galaxy-Sized' Observatory Sees Potential Hints of Gravitational Waves
Scientists have used a “galaxy-sized” space observatory to find possible hints of a unique signal from gravitational waves, or the powerful ripples that course through the universe and warp the fabric of space and time itself.
‘Swiss Army Knife’ Catalyst Can Make Natural Gas Burn Cleaner
Natural gas is the cleanest traditional fossil fuel source because it produces relatively low amounts of pollutants like carbon dioxide – a potent greenhouse gas and major contributor to climate change.
