Break PFA chains with PFASUIKI technology
From costly disposal to destruction of PFA at the site: PFASUIKI’s technology offers a new way to solve the PFAS wastewater challenge. One of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time is one of the most pressing environmental challenges of our time. Known as “eternal chemicals” for their extreme persistence, PFA accumulates in soil, […]
Power electronics for next-generation electric vehicles
Standardized, extremely compact, cost-effective power electronics to boost the future of electric vehicles and the European electronic mobility industry. Europe’s ambitious goal of phased out new combustion engine car sales by 2035 calls for rapid innovation in electric vehicle (EV) technology. The key to this shift is improving the efficiency, reliability and cost-effectiveness of power […]
£30 million Darlington Biofoundry to promote the next generation of British RNA therapies
The pioneering facility dedicated to advances in RNA therapy will soon open in Darlington and be supported by a UK government investment of £29.6 million. RNA bio-extension in the UK aims to accelerate the transition of cutting-edge medical research from laboratories to clinics, paving the way for new treatments for cancer, cardiovascular disease and rare […]
Distorted Discs Reconstruct Planetary Layer Understanding
The drawings from the planetary layer textbook – a gentle flat disc of cosmic dust – have just received a considerable cosmic twist. New observations by Atacama’s large millimeter/sub-millimeter array (ALMA) are set to reconstruct this long-standing view of this planetary layer. This study found compelling evidence that many protoplanet discs, planetary origin plates, are […]
MIT announces self-disintegration materials for recycling EV batteries
The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has sparked both excitement and concern. EVs are reducing emissions from transport, but they also pose looming challenges. What will they do with the huge number of batteries once they reach the end of their lives? Many of today’s lithium-ion batteries become landfills, producing toxic waste and waste […]
UK offshore winds face bottlenecks threatening targets for 2030
The race to expand UK offshore wind capacity is flowing into choppy waters. A new industry report warns that despite having the world’s largest pipeline of projects, the UK is unlikely to achieve its 55 Gigawatt (GW) target in 2030. Bottlenecks in ports, vessels and supply chains mean that just 43 GW is realistically achievable, […]
Invicta Water: Addresses PFAS Environmental Pollution
The persistent problems of PFA and the challenges posed by traditional treatment methods ensure that Invicta Water addresses the urgent need for innovative solutions to combat environmental pollution. In recent years, the issue of sustainable environmental pollutants has moved to the forefront of global environmental and public health debates. Of these, palmfluoroalkyl substances, commonly known […]
Ornl announces mobile Muon detectors
At a milestone fusing physics, engineering and innovation, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have developed a mobile Muon detector. This cutting-edge system is designed to probe dense materials, improve nuclear fuel monitoring, and tackle one of the toughest challenges in quantum computing. Muons, electron-like subatomic particles, are heavier, but […]
The UK government adds six new models to its electric vehicle grant
Drivers can enjoy £3,750 on two new Ford electric vehicles starting today, as Ford Pumagen-E and Ford e-Tonan Courier, and four other models will be eligible for the UK government’s electric vehicle subsidy. Six new eligible models have reached 28 total vehicles available under the Electric Vehicle Grant (ECG). The Ford model is the first […]
EPA data shows millions exposed to PFA in drinking water
More Americans than ever are learning that the water coming from the tap may not be safe. The latest federal tests reveal a troubling reality. Another 7 million Americans have confirmed to put PFA in drinking water, bringing the national total to over 172 million people. These findings come from the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) […]
