In-situ PFAS destruction in complex landfill leachates
PFASuiki demonstrates the power of electrochemical oxidation by achieving high destruction rates in one of the harshest landfill environments in Italy. The global regulatory landscape has changed since we first introduced PFASuiki’s electrochemical oxidation (EO) technology. For industrial operators, the focus is no longer just on removal, but on route stability. As landfill and industrial […]
Verralize Rapid Pathogen Detection on Farms
Verralize’s portable biosensor tests enable rapid pathogen detection for animal health, biosecurity monitoring, and early One Health surveillance. For livestock producers, veterinarians and biosecurity teams, delayed responses can have real operational implications. When an infection is suspected in a herd, herd, or mixed animal environment, the time between sampling and treatment determines whether the problem […]
The hantavirus outbreak is not “another new coronavirus”
Authorities are trying to trace at least 29 passengers from the MV Hondius who disembarked after the first death occurred on April 24, but the World Health Organization asserted that “this is not the beginning of a pandemic.” The global battle continues as authorities search for at least 29 passengers from 12 countries who disembarked […]
PFAS destruction and eVTOL project wins first ERS grant from University of Toledo
Projects selected for funding from the newly formed Engineering Research Society (ERS) include research into destroying PFAS and using AI to advance aerodynamic modeling for electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The University of Toledo College of Engineering announced its first grant award from the Engineering Research Society (ERS). This was an important step […]
HTS-110 and Stelar launch compact benchtop NMR instrument
The 3Tracer 2.0 HF is the first in a new series of compact high-field NMR magnets that connect to standard power sockets. No liquid helium required. New Zealand magnet manufacturer HTS-110 and Italian NMR partner Stelar srl have launched the 3Tracer 2.0 HF Relaxometer, a compact nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instrument built around a new […]
The largest black hole formed by stars violently merging rather than collapsing
A new study has found that there are two distinct populations of black holes. One forms through established models of stellar collapse, and the other forms as a result of repeated violent mergers in dense star clusters. The largest black holes in the universe are detected through ripples in space-time and are not formed directly […]
New $7 million research center in Colorado targets safer PFAS destruction technology
A new federally funded research center led by the Colorado School of Mines aims to accelerate the development of safer and more effective PFAS destruction technologies as concerns about permanent chemicals continue to grow around the world. The effort has received $7 million in funding to evaluate new treatment systems and provide independent scientific guidance […]
Using AI to reduce wildlife tracking analysis from months to days
Artificial intelligence significantly reduces the time required to analyze wildlife camera capture data. This process has traditionally taken conservation groups months, or even a year. A new study published in the Journal of Applied Ecology and led by researchers at Washington State University (WSU) and Google has demonstrated that AI can perform wildlife tracking analysis […]
University of Southern California researchers secure $10 million grant from NIH to investigate health effects of PFAS
Leading researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California have received a $10 million federal grant to expand their research into the health effects of PFAS, synthetic chemicals commonly known as forever chemicals. This funding is provided through the prestigious Innovative and Visionary Environmental Health Research (RIVER) initiative of the […]
How to reap the benefits of AI as security risks increase
CardLab discusses the solutions businesses should consider to ensure they can reap the benefits of AI while overcoming the safety and security challenges that come with it. Artificial intelligence (AI) is here to stay, has proven highly effective in the pursuit of efficiency, and is being implemented in many areas of society. It has definitely […]
