Proven PFAS destruction at commercial scale
In a recent commercial optimization run with a major industrial manufacturer, ClarosTechUV™ destroyed up to 99.99% of targeted PFAS compounds, including long, short, and ultra-short chains, and treated hundreds of thousands of gallons of process water. In an industry facing increasing regulatory pressure against PFAS (“forever chemicals”), traditional “trap and contain” techniques are insufficient. Granular […]
PFAS AI fills a blind spot for PFAS chemicals in manufacturing
Amid evolving regulatory demands, customer pressures, and environmental standards, there is an urgent need for manufacturers to improve visibility and understanding of hazardous PFAS chemicals in their products. PFAS has moved from a niche chemical problem to a strategic test of how global manufacturing systems manage risk, redesign products, and protect public health. PFAS have […]
Uranium fuel emerges as bottleneck for US nuclear revival
As the United States seeks to expand nuclear power generation to meet surging demand for electricity, a less visible constraint is coming into focus: uranium fuel. While policy momentum and private investment are flowing to both existing plants and next-generation reactors, the supply chain that supplies uranium fuel is strained, geopolitically exposed and slow to […]
Promoting gentler cancer treatment for pets through comparative oncology
Kyrexa is advancing cancer treatment in companion animals through comparative oncology, and its lead drug rimcazole is ready for pivotal development following a successful pilot evaluation in dogs with advanced cancer. Kyrexa’s vision to provide gentle and effective treatment for cancer in companion animals is explained in its introductory article. Kyrexa’s flagship drug was backed […]
Investigating the impact of space weather on Earth
The new mission will use cutting-edge scientific methods to more fully understand the relationship between the Sun and Earth, helping to advance scientific knowledge and better understand the effects of space weather. The SMILE mission will provide global 3D imaging of the Earth’s magnetosphere for the first time and investigate the dynamic response of the […]
Anritsu and VTT push the boundaries of D-band wireless communications
Significant advances in D-band wireless communications were achieved through joint Anritsu and VTT demonstrations, highlighting the real-world feasibility of very high frequency wireless links. This project will validate that D-band technology can provide stable, high-capacity performance suitable for future backhaul, industrial connectivity, defense systems, and emerging 6G networks. Jonathan Boril, CTO of Anritsu’s Test and […]
£50m investment to establish ground-breaking clinical trial center
The new initiative aims to accelerate clinical trials of new drugs to improve patient care. The creation of the brand-new center aims to revolutionize the approach to clinical trial design and conduct by developing pioneering methods that speed up the process and promote improved treatment and recovery. The Medical Research Council (MRC) Clinical Trials Innovation […]
The scale of Australia’s PFAS chemicals in drinking water challenge
Anthony Amis, Land Use Researcher from Friends of the Earth Australia, summarises the current state of the PFAS challenge in Australia, examining cases of PFAS occurrence across Australia and measures to combat it. As a Land Use Researcher, I have been researching water quality issues in Australia for many years. This work started with pesticides […]
Researchers discover new way to boost immune response to cancer
Researchers at the University of Southampton have developed a promising new way to boost the body’s immune system’s response to cancer. They used a specially designed multifaceted antibody to make the immune response more active against cancer-killing T cells. Antibodies work by “capturing” and “clustering” multiple immune cell receptors, thereby boosting the signal that tells […]
Evidence suggests that dark matter and neutrinos interact
Scientists may be closing in on one of cosmology’s most enduring mysteries. University of Sheffield experts investigating the deepest workings of the universe have discovered new evidence suggesting that two of the universe’s most mysterious components, dark matter and neutrinos, may not be as isolated as once thought. The discovery could reshape our understanding of […]
