A team of researchers from the U.S. National Science Foundation Center for Sustainable Polymers based at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities have developed…
Seven suspects have been questioned over the theft of diesel fuel worth $2 million from a US military base on the Black Sea in southeastern Romania, prosecutors said Wednesday.
If the petrochemical industry is ever to wean itself off oil and gas, it has to find sustainably-sourced chemicals that slip effortlessly into existing processes for making products such as fuels, lubricants and plastics.
President Joe Biden tapped the US strategic oil reserves in a bid to reassure Americans angry about inflation and goods shortages as they head off to Thanksgiving -- and to buoy up his sinking poll ratings.
Trains have been on the sidelines of electrification efforts for a long time in the U.S.
It sounds like modern-day alchemy: Transforming sugar into hydrocarbons found in gasoline.
Australian environmental groups on Tuesday vowed to scupper plans for a vast new gas project off the country's pristine northwest coast, saying it would critically undercut international climate efforts.
Lithium-ion batteries, those marvels of lightweight power that have made possible today's age of handheld electronics and electric vehicles, have plunged…
Sugar can be transformed into hydrocarbons found in gasoline by feeding glucose to strains of E.
The German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fur Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) is working with ENERCON to set up the Krummendeich Research Wind Farm.
Could a tank of ice or hot water be a battery? Yes! If a battery is a device for storing energy, then storing hot or cold water to power a building's heating or air-conditioning system is a different type of energy storage.
Spent lithium-ion batteries contain valuable metals that are difficult to separate from each other for recycling purposes.
The researchers, led by Jennifer L. Schaefer, professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the University of Notre Dame, analyzed how magnesium-ion-conducting solid polymer electrolytes may work in two separate battery systems.
To produce a cost-effective redox flow battery, researchers based at the South China University of Technology have synthesized a molecular compound that serves as a low-cost electrolyte, enabling a stable flow battery that retains 99.98% capacity per cycle.
MIT physicists and colleagues have demonstrated an exotic form of superconductivity in a new material the team synthesized only about a year ago.
Carbon dioxide (CO2), a product of burning fossil fuels and the most prevalent greenhouse gas, has the potential to be sustainably converted back into useful fuels.
