New laser technique that strips hydrogen from silicon surfaces
A team of researchers have achieved a long-sought scientific goal: using laser light to break specific molecular bonds. The process uses laser light, instead of heat, to strip hydrogen atoms from silicon surfaces, a key step in the manufacture of computer chips and solar cells. view more (2006-05-19)
Green Algae Step on the Gas
Whether it is in the shape of bread rolls, crunchy flakes or 'spaghetti al pesto di mare', the food industry is on an 'algae trip', selling these marine flora to health-conscious consumers as delicious energy-rich additions to their products. Yet there is another way that algae can help us to solve our energy problems: some of them can produce... view more... (2001-12-13)
Leeds researchers fuelling the 'hydrogen economy'
Scientists at the University of Leeds are turning low-grade sludge into high-value gas in a process which could make eco-friendly biodiesel even greener and more economical to produce. view more (2007-11-28)
Deep in the ocean, a clam that acts like a plant
How does life survive in the black depths of the ocean? At the surface, sunlight allows green plants to "fix" carbon from the air to build their bodies. view more (2007-02-21)
Algae could one day be major hydrogen fuel source
As gas prices continue to soar to record highs, motorists are crying out for an alternative that won't cramp their pocketbooks. view more (2008-04-02)
Hydrogen peroxide marshals immune system
When you were a kid your mom poured it on your scraped finger to stave off infection. view more (2009-06-04)
The man from Southampton-he says yes!
23 October 1998 How do farmers know when their tomatoes are perfect and just right for picking? Southampton researchers have harnessed the same technology used to print T-shirts to develop a simple, robust device that can be used in the field to indicate when fruit is ripe. John Atkinson, head of the University of Southampton's Thick Film Unit... view more... (1998-11-17)
Classic experiments give new insight on life's origin
The building blocks of life may have emerged in volcanic eruptions on the early Earth, according to a new analysis of classic experiments performed more than fifty years ago. view more (2008-10-17)
Scientists a step closer to producing fuel from bacteria
Scientists at the University of Sheffield have shown how bacteria could be used as a future fuel. The research, published in the journal Bioinformatics, could have significant implications for the environment and the way we produce sustainable fuels in the future. view more (2008-08-07)
UCLA, University of Michigan Chemists Report Progress in Quest to Use Hydrogen as Fuel for Cars and Electronic Devices
Chemists at UCLA and the University of Michigan report an advance toward the goal of cars that run on hydrogen rather than gasoline. view more (2006-03-08)
New clues about a hydrogen fuel catalyst
To use hydrogen as a clean energy source, some engineers want to pack hydrogen into a larger molecule, rather than compressing the gas into a tank. view more (2009-08-05)
How the Moon produces its own water
The Moon is a big sponge that absorbs electrically charged particles given out by the Sun. These particles interact with the oxygen present in some dust grains on the lunar surface, producing water. view more (2009-10-15)
From Europa to the lab, a new recipe for oxygen on icy moons
A new Pacific Northwest National Laboratory study offers the most detailed picture to date on how oxygen can be made in frigid reaches far from Earth. view more (2006-03-28)
Hydrogen as an alternative energy to petroleum
The key aspect of the project is the obtaining of metal hydrides with the capacity to "store" the hydrogen used in automotive vehicle fuel batteries. view more (2004-03-15)
Diamond by-product of hydrogen production and storage method
There may not be a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but there appears to be nanocrystalline diamonds at the end of a process to produce and store hydrogen using anthracite coal. view more (2006-06-26)
National Academies news: Emissions-free, petroleum-free vehicles
A public-private effort to develop more fuel-efficient automobiles and eventually introduce hydrogen as a transportation fuel is well-planned and identifies all major hurdles the program will face, says a new report from the National Academies' National Research Council. view more (2005-08-03)
Arecibo telescope finds critical ingredients for the soup of life in a galaxy far, far away
Astronomers from Arecibo Observatory radio telescope in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, have detected for the first time the molecules methanimine and hydrogen cyanide - two ingredients that build life-forming amino acids - in a galaxy some 250 million light years away. view more (2008-01-15)
UC San Diego Scientists Develop Sensor for Homemade Bombs
A team of chemists and physicists at the University of California, San Diego has developed a tiny, inexpensive sensor chip capable of detecting trace amounts of hydrogen peroxide, a chemical used in the most common form of homemade explosives. view more (2008-03-19)
Research explores role of hydrogen peroxide in cell health
Hydrogen peroxide, the same mild acid that many people use to disinfectant their kitchens or treat cuts and abrasions, is also produced by the body to keep cells healthy. Now, researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine have solved how part of this complex process works. view more (2008-01-03)
Further commitment to sustainable power generation
A further £10M for research into renewable energy technologies Following the Government's "Energy Review" a further £10M is being put into research into renewable energy technology. The kind of work being invested in will include: Power distribution networks - ensuring a high quality, reliable supply of electricity. Marine... view more... (2002-05-31)
