With gas and oil prices at all-time highs, it's only logical for scientists to try to harness some of that solar energy. To that end, three MIT researchers are building a device that mimics photosynthesis-the process plants use to capture and store the sun's vast energy.
An international research team led by Swedish Professor Rajeev Ahuja, Uppsala University, has demonstrated an atomistic mechanism of hydrogen release in magnesium nanoparticles – a potential hydrogen storage material
Chemists at UC Riverside have discovered an inexpensive, clean and quick way to prepare amines - nitrogen-containing organic compounds derived from ammonia that have wide industrial applications such as solvents, additives, anti-foam agents, corrosion inhibitors, detergents, dyes and bactericides.
Jupiter, Florida-based Green Machine Solutions, Inc., has signed on as a Silver Sponsor of The Green Fair at Riverside Park, which is anticipated to be the largest green fair in Florida.
Quantum Fuel Systems Technologies Worldwide, Inc. today announced that it was awarded a contract by EDAG Engineering + Design AG (EDAG) to develop advanced hybrid vehicle powertrains for the Future Steel Vehicle program sponsored by WorldAutoSteel, the automotive group of the International Iron and Steel Institute (IISI).
Verizon has earned the federal government's prestigious Energy Star Award for operating the nation's largest fuel cell site of its kind, an environmentally friendly call-switching center and office building here.
In a major sustainability milestone for the industry, InEnTec Chemical LLC yesterday announced it successfully completed demonstration of its mobile Plasma Enhanced Melter(TM) (PEM(TM)) system for four of the world's largest chemical companies to produce ultra clean, hydrogen rich synthesis gas (referred to as "syngas") from chemical residuals that would normally be treated as hazardous waste and incinerated.
What looks like a fertilized egg, flows like water, gets stuffed with catalysts and exotic nanostructures and may have the potential of making the current retail gasoline infrastructure compatible with hydrogen-based vehicles of the future - not to mention also contributing to arenas such as nuclear proliferation and global warming?
The old saying that there is strength in numbers also applies to fuel cells. To deliver a high enough power output, a number of cells have to be connected in series. Manufacturers normally stack the fuel cells - a structure consisting of several metal plates, each containing one channel for air and one for hydrogen.
The first Belgian hydrogen filling station was inaugurated today in Brussels by Total in the presence of the Flemish Ministry for Economy, Enterprise, Science, Innovation and Foreign Trade.
