Over a billion people worldwide live without electricity.
A study led by the University of Southampton has mapped several sites in Europe containing gas hydrate – a relatively clean fuel which could help bridge the gap between fossil fuels and renewables.
The system, tested on an industrial scale, prevents foul odours and reduces by up to two months the treatment time for the organic matter deriving from the excess sludge, for its subsequent agricultural use.
A UNIGE researcher has discovered the particularities of porphyry copper and gold deposits, providing mining companies with a new tool to maximise the extraction of these two metals.
Findings indicate that the likely impacts of mining on microbial ecosystems vary substantially, from minimal disturbance to the irreversible loss of important ecosystem processes.
Scientists use satellite data to monitor NO2 and ozone levels around oil & gas production sites.
Tool developed by Texas A&M Natural Resources Institute, others to ensure compatible development of wind energy.
Texas A&M researchers are developing technology that can depict underground drilling conditions in real time.
Researchers have developed a new process that could make it much cheaper to produce biofuels such as ethanol from plant waste and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
Hydrogen is considered as one of the promising alternative energy sources.
