The impact of biolexer on bio-based materials
Martin Clemesha, senior specialist at Braskem, discusses the impact of biolexer certification guidelines on bio-based materials, sustainability, and the future of the circular bioeconomy. The Biorecer (Biological Resources Certification Scheme) project redefines how bio-based materials are accredited to meet the EU’s latest sustainability and circular economy objectives. Focusing on strengthening current authentication systems, Biorecer introduces […]
Trump will launch nuclear technology “Renaissance” with executive order
In a strategic move to reaffirm US leadership in scientific innovation and energy security, President Donald Trump has signed a series of drastic executive orders to stimulate the country’s nuclear technology sector. These actions mark a significant turning point after decades of stagnation in the US nuclear energy industry and set the stage for what […]
Circular Change’s Circular Economy Vision
Radeha Godina Kosil and Meta Pezdir of Circulatory Change explain how small lifestyle changes can make a significant contribution to the global circular economy movement. Founded in Slovenia in 2016, Circular Change is a stakeholder engagement platform designed to drive a circular transition by offering a variety of solutions, projects, reports, events and more. The […]
Understanding the mystery of neutrino particles
The Innovation Platform investigates how the NOvA experiment at Fermilab is working to determine the role of mysterious neutrino particles. Neutrinos are tiny subatomic particles and are the most abundant matter particle in the Universe. Despite this, however, they have very little interaction with other matter and are often termed ‘ghost particles’ as a result. […]
The UK is targeting global leadership in low carbon hydrogen
The UK is looking to establish itself as a global leader in low carbon hydrogen production. Celia Greaves, CEO of the Hydrogen Energy Association, discusses current challenges and strategies for progress next year. Following the results of the general election, Labour is already pushing forward with its ambitions to make Britain a clean energy superpower. […]
Most vaccine refrigerators on farms cannot keep cool, research finds
New research found that most farm vaccine refrigerators store critical drugs at the wrong temperature, putting livestock health at risk, and urgent farmers to use grants to upgrade their equipment. The study, conducted by MSD Animal Health, found that 84% of on-farm refrigerators store the vaccine outside the recommended temperature range. Company experts warn that […]
Alma measures how spiral galaxies grow and evolve
Astronomers have observed large, highly active Burley spiral galaxies in early universes, and have discovered important similarities and differences with modern galaxies. This improves our understanding of how spiral galaxies grow and evolve, like our own Milky Way galaxies. A team led by Japanese National Astronomer and Nagoya University project researcher Shuo Huang used Atacama’s […]
Powering the future of clean energy
Nuclear fusion – the process that powers the stars – has long captured the imagination of scientists, engineers, and energy experts alike. Unlike nuclear fission, which involves splitting heavy atoms and results in radioactive waste and safety concerns, fusion joins light nuclei, such as hydrogen isotopes, to form heavier elements, releasing vast amounts of energy […]
Fast delivery of medical technology for emergencies
New medical technologies such as drones and smarter medical software using AI to provide critical supply can help doctors find diseases before, quickly reach the UK public through new funds, reduce unnecessary deficits and maintain innovation. The pioneer regulatory fund supports regulators who try to experiment with more efficient and more efficient ways of working […]
Lithium-Co₂ Battery Surrey University Breakthrough Offers the Dual Benefits of Energy Storage and Carbon Capture
Scientists at the University of Surrey have unveiled a new type of battery that can store energy and change the way we fight climate change. These advanced lithium-CO-CO₂ batteries not only provide higher energy performance, but also absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in use. It offers two powerful solutions to the world’s two most […]
