With support from U.S. Department of Energy National Laboratories, including Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Texas-based company Element3 has launched the first domestic lithium mining project in 50 years.
New research examines whether disruptive financial technology (DFT) and modern Belt and Road (MBR) spillovers are associated with green development (GD) and net-zero pathways across 148 Belt and Road economies from 2004 to 2023. Using advanced panel econometric methods, the study finds that DFT and MBR spillovers generally show positive associations with GD, while their interaction is positive for the full panel and Europe but negative for Asia and Africa. The results suggest that the green benefits of digital finance depend on regulatory frameworks, digital readiness and project governance.
More than 6 million U.S. homes have solar panels on their roofs — but what if you could generate power inside your house, too?
Two University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign researchers have received nearly $1.6 million from the Foundation for Food & Agriculture Research's Efficient Fertilizer Consortium to study how fertilizers perform under Midwestern growing conditions.
A calibrated CO2 sensing approach provides high-resolution tracking of dissolved inorganic carbon under continuous and alternating light conditions in microalgal cultures.
Seawater covers 97% of Earth's water but remains largely untapped as a chemical feedstock. Now, researchers have developed a catalyst that turns seawater into two valuable products at the same time: hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a versatile bleaching and disinfecting agent, and active chlorine, a widely used water treatment chemical. The catalyst, built from two conductive metal-organic frameworks joined together, uses oxygen from the air and chloride ions naturally present in seawater to drive both reactions simultaneously. This approach offers a more sustainable and energy-efficient route to producing these industrial chemicals without relying on freshwater or complex separation processes.
The latest study from the Food Systems Countdown Initiative (FSCI) reveals the stark reality of where global food systems transformation stands – for most indicators on health, environment, livelihoods, governance and resilience, a vast majority of countries will not meet the internationally agreed 2030 goals.
Infrastructure services leader, Colas Rail UK, is rolling out hydrogen-powered engine carbon clean across its 31-strong tamper fleet - after successful trials on two assets at their Rugby depot generated fuel and emissions savings of over 13%.
