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)
The price paid for higher energy is highly dangerous to teeth
For more than 10 years, energy drinks in the United States have been on the rise, promising consumers more "oomph" in their day. view more (2008-03-13)
New Research Suggests Biofuel Blending is Often Inaccurate
While sampling blended biodiesel fuels purchased from small-scale retailers, researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution found that many of the blends do not contain the advertised amount of biofuel. view more (2008-02-28)
Magazine touts NJIT idea to harness clean energy for NYC
An NJIT architecture professor with an architecture student has designed a network of modular floating docks to harness clean energy for New York City. The proposal was featured this week in Metropolis magazine. view more (2009-07-16)
Hormone found to decrease appetite and increase activity
New research shows how topping up the levels of a hormone found in the gut could help reduce the appetite and increase activity in overweight and obese people. view more (2006-04-27)
Why are lions not as big as elephants?
Carnivores are some of the widest ranging terrestrial mammals for their size, and this affects their energy intake and needs. view more (2007-01-16)
STFC Daresbury Laboratory's ALICE accelerates to 4 million volt milestone
A major milestone has been achieved in the completion of the UK's next-generation particle accelerator, ALICE, which is set to produce an intense beam of light that will revolutionise the way in which accelerator based light source research facilities will be designed in the future. view more (2008-11-18)
Stress signals link pre-existing sickness with susceptibility to bacterial infection
Mitochondrial diseases disrupt the power generating machinery within cells and increase a person's susceptibility to bacterial infection, particularly in the lungs or respiratory tract. view more (2009-07-28)
Nanoscience Study Shows That Quantum Dots "Talk"
Scientists who hope to use quantum dots as the building blocks for the next generation of computers have found a way to make these artificial atoms communicate. view more (2006-02-22)
Electricity grid could become a type of Internet
In the future everyone who is connected to the electricity grid will be able to upload and download packages of electricity to and from this network. At least, that is one of the transformations the electricity grid could undergo. view more (2007-10-25)
Researchers examine carbon capture and storage to combat global warming
While solar power and hybrid cars have become popular symbols of green technology, Stanford researchers are exploring another path for cutting emissions of carbon dioxide, the leading greenhouse gas that causes global warming. view more (2007-06-12)
New system for storing lithium-polymer energy
The basque technology centre CIDETEC is working on a project about lithium-polymer energy with the collaboration of the companies CEGASA and ZIGOR. view more (2002-09-09)
Using microbes to fuel the US hydrogen economy
The focus on hydrogen as a future fuel source is compelling given dwindling supplies of oil and natural gas, as well as escalating costs and the fact that burning fossil fuels releases large amounts of carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse" gas, into the atmosphere. view more (2006-09-13)
Research Finds Active Video Games a Good Alternative for Kids
Scientists at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center have found that playing active video games can be as effective for children as moderate exercise. The findings appear this week in the journal Pediatrics from the American Academy of Pediatrics. view more (2009-07-17)
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)
UGA study finds that regular exercise plays a consistent and significant role in reducing fatigue, increasing energy
Forget so-called energy drinks. A new analysis by University of Georgia researchers finds overwhelming evidence that regular exercise plays a significant role in increasing energy levels and reducing fatigue. view more (2006-11-02)
Lower metabolism, eating behavior possibly explain the cause of overweight in narcolepsy
A lower metabolism, as well as slight changes in eating behavior, could explain the positive energy balance leading to being overweight in narcolepsy. view more (2007-10-01)
Germans and Brits wash up economically
Wastefulness already starts in the sink at home. Often enough, more than ten times the amount of water and energy is used in doing the washing-up than the resource-friendly economy dish-washer requires - without any significantly better effect being achieved. These are the initial results of a survey at the University of Bonn in which home... view more... (2002-11-28)
British opposition to wind farms
IT IS a classic demonstration of how not to do "joined-up government". Britain`s Ministry of Defence (MoD) is blocking five of the country`s 18 proposed offshore wind farms, claiming that they will interfere with military aviation radar. The MoD`s objections will almost certainly prevent the... view more... (2002-04-24)
Fuel from food waste: bacteria provide power
Researchers have combined the efforts of two kinds of bacteria to produce hydrogen in a bioreactor, with the product from one providing food for the other. view more (2008-07-17)
