The Sunshot and Energy Earthshots initiatives by the U.S. Department of Energy are playing key roles in supporting the move toward clean and renewable energy technologies. See what these initiatives have accomplished so far and how DOE plans to expand them this year.
Read MoreNew source of rare earth elements, ADAPT consortium welcomes Lithoz, and more ceramic and glass business news of the week for March 8, 2019.
Read MoreMaking carbon nanotubes as usable as plastic, robotic assembly of the world’s smallest house, and other materials stories that may be of interest for May 23, 2018.
Read MoreA team of scientists from CoorsTek Membrane Sciences, the University of Oslo, and the Institute of Chemical Technology has developed a promising new ceramic membrane that could reduce the cost and enhance the feasibility of hydrogen generation far enough to bring the technology to the forefront of clean energy solutions.
Read MoreResearchers have discovered a way to produce hydrogen to power a fuel cell, using hydrolysis without a catalyst. This “spontaneous hydrolysis” could provide soldiers with battery power in the field.
Read MoreAirlines may soon be “going green.” Researchers at Technion Israel Institute of Technology have patented an eco-friendly process to produce hydrogen on demand and in air, offering up new potential for fuel cell-powered aircraft.
Read MoreResearchers at Forschungszentrum Jülich in Germany have developed a significantly improved stable ceramic hydrogen separation membrane that can enable a hydrogen flow rate that is nearly double that of other separation membranes.
