To add to the environment-friendly hydrogen-powered cars, researchers have discovered a way for absorbing and storing hydrogen safely and efficiently using “nanoporous” polymers – which are filed with nanoscopic holes.

We all have accepted the…

UK researchers have observed that ocean waves could be used as an energy-efficient way for desalinating seawater. Unlike the conventional purification plants that have high demands for energy, the rocking motion of floating buoys could be effectively.

Energy is normally lost during natural gas pipeline operations. The first multi-megawatt hybrid product is being developed that not only recover this normally lost energy, but also generate ultra-clean electricity during the recovery…

When the world is planning to curb global warming and reduce emissions, why don’t we start with it in our own little ways? The DOE and ECD Ovonics is exactly doing the same. Gardening and adding o to greeneries help contribute towards the…
