Deep-sea sediments could safely store man-made carbon dioxide
An innovative solution for the man-made carbon dioxide fouling our skies could rest far beneath the surface of the ocean, say scientists at Harvard University. view more (2006-08-08)
Popular apple variety harbors unusual cell growth
A UK scientist has discovered clumps of previously-unreported callus hairs growing in the flesh of mature apples of Fuji and closely-related varieties, which may have storage implications for commercial growers. view more (2008-03-26)
Pushing the limits of hard disk storage
Just how much data can we cram onto a hard disk? In a paper appearing online today in Physical Review Letters, EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne) Professor Harald Brune and his colleagues report what they believe to be the ultimate density limit of magnetic recording. view more (2005-10-10)
Nano-cages 'fill up' with hydrogen
A "cagey" strategy to stack more hydrogen in nanoscale scaffoldings made of zinc-based boxes may yield a viable approach to storing hydrogen and, ultimately, replacing fossil fuels in future automobiles, according to new results from National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) researchers. view more (2005-12-02)
Environmentally 'green' beer: Munich brewing engineers research energy savings
A cool, freshly drawn beer - for many a person this is the greatest of pleasures. But, in fact, a bad conscience should haunt us when we drink beer as it is among the most energy-intensive foodstuffs during production. view more (2009-09-08)
Removal of Nitrogen from Motor Exhaust Sulfur-resistant process
Who doesn’t want to save fuel? Vehicles with lean-burning engines are therefore gaining ground. These engines work with excess air and can run on noticeably less fuel. This spares thewallet of the frequent driver, and also releases less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. However,these exhaust gases are not a pure joy for the environment,... view more...

UCLA researchers solve decade-old mystery
Environmentally friendly hydrogen gas fueled vehicles can dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lessen the country's dependence on sources of fossil fuel. Though several hydrogen vehicles exist on the market today, there is still much room for improvement in the way that hydrogen is stored on-board the vehicle. view more (2008-02-27)
Satellites unlock secret to northern India's vanishing water
Using NASA satellite data, scientists have found that groundwater levels in northern India have been declining by as much as one foot per year over the past decade. Researchers concluded the loss is almost entirely due to human activity. view more (2009-08-13)
Laser etching safe alternative for labeling grapefruit
Laser labeling of fruit and vegetables is a new, patented technology in which a low-energy carbon dioxide laser beam is used to label, or "etch" information on produce, thereby eliminating the need for common sticker-type labels. view more (2009-11-04)
Hydrogen Storage Gets New Hope
A new method for "recycling" hydrogen-containing fuel materials could open the door to economically viable hydrogen-based vehicles. view more (2009-09-02)
Government energy policy unrealistic, says Academy
The Government's energy policy is hopelessly unrealistic, expecting far too much from renewable energy sources and ignoring serious concerns about reliable gas supplies, the Royal Academy of Engineering has told Energy Minister Brian Wilson MP in a report published today (30 August). The Academy's engineering assessment is highly critical of the... view more... (2002-08-28)
Vise squad: Putting the squeeze on a crystal leads to novel electronics
A clever materials science technique that uses a silicon crystal as a sort of nanoscale vise to squeeze another crystal into a more useful shape may launch a new class of electronic devices that remember their last state even after power is turned off. view more (2009-05-11)
Europe's first interactive system bringing GRID technology to the final user
Ever since the internet was created, it has developed and advanced as new services have been introduced that have made it easier to access and send data between remote computers. Electronic mail and the easy-to-use interactive interface known as the World Wide Web are just two of the most important services that have helped to make the internet as... view more... (2005-04-29)
Hydrogen tank lighter than battery
Dutch-sponsored researcher Robin Gremaud has shown that an alloy of the metals magnesium, titanium and nickel is excellent at absorbing hydrogen. view more (2008-11-05)
Silicon nanowires upgrade data-storage technology
Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), along with colleagues at George Mason University and Kwangwoon University in Korea, have fabricated a memory device that combines silicon nanowires with a more traditional type of data-storage. view more (2007-06-11)
New Supercomputer Enhances Reliability of Weather Predictions
Sweden's new supercomputer for weather forecasting will greatly improve prediction reliability. An enhanced and powerful computational package, tailored especially for the needs of the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute, SMHI, is now installed at the National Supercomputer Center, NSC, sited at Linköping University. view more (2005-02-14)
Nanoscale blasting adjusts resistance in magnetic sensors
A new process for adjusting the resistance of semiconductor devices by carpeting a small area of the device with tiny pits, like a yard dug up by demented terriers, may be the key to a new class of magnetic sensors, enabling new, ultra-dense data storage devices. view more (2007-08-17)
A researcher of UPV/EHU has designed nanomagnets for industry
The PhD, defended by chemist Sonia Moralejo García at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), achieved a well-defined line for the manufacture of nanomagnets and other magnetic devices of wide industrial application. view more (2008-02-13)
Self-assembling polymer arrays improve data storage potential
A new manufacturing approach holds the potential to overcome the technological limitations currently facing the microelectronics and data-storage industries, paving the way to smaller electronic devices and higher-capacity hard drives. view more (2008-08-15)
Cooling with tiny crystals
Refrigeration equipment prevents sweaty brows in the summer and also keeps our food fresh for longer periods. With CryoSol®, a new and easily pumpable liquid ice suspension, space requirements for cold storage are much lower than with conventional coolants. view more (2004-08-27)
