Top undergrads in chemical engineering from across the U.S. will pursue cutting-edge research on alternative energy at the University of Delaware this summer through an internship program sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) in the ongoing quest to develop a diverse, internationally competitive and globally engaged science and engineering workforce.
Despite oil prices that hover around $100 a barrel, it may take at least 10 or more years of intensive research and development to reduce the cost of solar energy to levels competitive with petroleum, according to an authority on the topic.
Energy independence and rising crude price trends indicate strong prospects for an alternative fuel market in commercial aviation. The growing need for alternative aviation fuel is reflected in active initiatives undertaken by major aviation and energy companies either independently or collaboratively.
FUJIFILM Dimatix, the world's leading supplier of drop-on-demand inkjet printheads for industrial applications, today announced that its cartridge-based Dimatix Materials Printer (DMP) has been used to assist researchers in devising a novel method of rapidly producing, testing and optimizing new materials that hold promise for efficiently producing hydrogen from water and sunlight.
Boeing announced today that it has, for the first time in aviation history, flown a manned airplane powered by hydrogen fuel cells.
Crown Equipment Corporation, a leading global manufacturer of lift trucks, is committed to advancing hydrogen fuel cell technology. The company was recently awarded nearly $1 million in grant money from the state of Ohio to conduct fuel cell research.
As gas prices continue to soar to record highs, motorists are crying out for an alternative that won’t cramp their pocketbooks.
By way of cars, trucks, vans, buses, scooters, forklifts and even submarines, Air Products, the global leader in hydrogen fueling infrastructure and technology, surpassed a milestone when it completed its 50,000th hydrogen fill.
In just a few years renewable energy has gone from a trendy niche to a national imperative. Today thousands of employers in dozens of sectors are looking for employees.
Dutch chemist Kees Balde has demonstrated that hydrogen can be efficiently stored in nanoparticles. This allows hydrogen storage to be more easily used in mobile applications. Balde discovered that 30 nanometre particles of the metal hydride sodium alanate make the favourable extraction and storage of hydrogen possible.
