Removing ice and frost from surfaces in seconds

In the future, a delayed flight due to ice will be no cause for a meltdown. A group of researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and Kyushu University has developed a way to remove ice and frost from surfaces extremely efficiently, using less than 1% of the energy and less than 0.01% of

A desk lamp powering devices in the room

Batteries power most of our devices, and even some cars. But researchers now report in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces a step toward running electronic devices in homes and offices on the light coming from lamps scattered around the room. The team developed special light harvesters, like those used for solar power, optimized to produce energy from

A device to store energy in chemical form through continuous electrolysis

Research team Kyushu University creates electrolytic flow cell to produce alcohols from carboxylic acids Interest in renewable energy continues to burgeon. Many renewables, though, can be frustratingly intermittent – when the sun stops shining, or the wind stops blowing, the power flickers. The fluctuating supply can be partly smoothed-out by energy storage during peak production
