GM to fit monster e-drive mining truck with hydrogen power cubes

In a move that mirrors an Anglo American and Williams Advanced Engineering project from 2020, General Motors has partnered with Japan’s Komatsu to develop a fuel-cell power module for the latter’s 930E electric-drive mining truck.Continue ReadingCatego… Continue reading GM to fit monster e-drive mining truck with hydrogen power cubes

Sun-run device turns dirty water into hydrogen fuel & drinking water

Researchers have created a floating, solar-powered device that converts contaminated water or seawater into clean hydrogen fuel and drinking water. Because it works with any open water source and doesn’t require external power, the device could be used… Continue reading Sun-run device turns dirty water into hydrogen fuel & drinking water

BMW’s hydrogen-powered iX5 SUV survives brutal desert heat

Launched in February of this year, BMWs iX5 pilot fleet of hydrogen-powered cars has been getting field tested in countries around the world. Most recently, the passenger car got put through its paces in the punishing conditions of the UAE.Continue Rea… Continue reading BMW’s hydrogen-powered iX5 SUV survives brutal desert heat

Implant Fights Diabetes by Making Insulin and Oxygen

Type 1 diabetes remains a problem despite having an apparently simple solution: since T1D patients have lost the cells that produce insulin, it should be possible to transplant those cells …read more Continue reading Implant Fights Diabetes by Making Insulin and Oxygen

New imaging reveals colossal cosmic web lurking in dark distant universe

On the largest scales possible, the universe resembles a web of light spun by an inconceivably large spider. Now, astronomers have detected very faint light from these cosmic web filaments in the deep, dark, distant universe.Continue ReadingCategory: S… Continue reading New imaging reveals colossal cosmic web lurking in dark distant universe

Low-emissions flash method upcycles waste plastic into “free” hydrogen

Researchers have used a low-emissions method to harvest hydrogen and graphene from waste plastics. They say it not only solves environmental problems like plastic pollution and greenhouse gas production, but the value of the graphene by-product could o… Continue reading Low-emissions flash method upcycles waste plastic into “free” hydrogen

H2Fly’s twin-fuselage aircraft makes world-first liquid hydrogen flight

Taking off from Maribor, Slovenia, the modified double-fuselage Pipistrel Taurus G4 made a historic first piloted flight running on cryogenic liquid hydrogen

Liquid hydrogen is a giant pain to handle, but it’s one of the few technologies with a genuine chance of decarbonizing long-range flight. So it’s huge news for clean aviation that H2Fly has now landed the word’s first piloted liquid hydrogen flight.

Solar catalyst captures methane to create pure hydrogen and carbon

Methane has a greenhouse effect 80 times worse than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period, and emissions are skyrocketing even as we start reducing CO2. That makes UCF’s new hydrocarbon-capturing, sunlight-powered catalyst a very compelling idea.Continu… Continue reading Solar catalyst captures methane to create pure hydrogen and carbon
