Water is a resource that humans cannot live without. It is considered one of the major global challenges faced by our world. Current desalination techniques have limitations, including salt accumulation, and extracting water from ground sources has been less studied....
To confront global warming, climate changes and a potential energy shortage, biodiesel has been receiving increasing interest as a substitute for diesel fuels in efforts to seek for sustainable development. Microalgae-derived biodiesel is a promising energy source.
Research has shown that co-processing raw bio-oil is challenging but it can be carried out after adoption of appropriate reactor modifications in the commercial scale.
To make photogalvanic cells a reality in life for simultaneous solar power and storage, some challenges have to be tackled
Idaho National Laboratory researchers design a 3D ultraporous ceramic framework as an anode for high-performance direct carbon fuel cells. below 600 °C. The cell can be operated efficiently at temperatures under 600 °C using solid carbon as fuel.
