Sciences & Technology
Harvesting big energy from small movement
A new material designed to harvest up to 400 times more energy from movement than currently possible has potential applications in biomedicine and geospatial monitoring
Sciences & Technology
Purifying water with a simple powder
Researchers have found a material that quickly kills bacteria in drinking water, creating a safe and cheaper alternative to chlorine.
Sciences & Technology
New mobile sensor could transform testing for remote areas
Chemical engineers have developed a first-of-its-kind sensor that could boost low-cost medical and environmental diagnostic testing in developing and remote areas – all without the need for a lab
Sciences & Technology
From grapevine waste to a sustainable building material
Grapevine prunings are an abundant source of agricultural crop waste that are now being turned into recycled building materials
Sciences & Technology
Wearable devices that use human energy
The human body produces a tremendous amount of energy. Now, researchers are looking at different ways to capture, reuse and recycle this energy to power our electronic devices
