The problem of access to safe drinking water in most parts of Bangladesh is a persistent challenge. Now, a team of scientists from Uppsala University, Sweden, and Dhaka University, Banglades... Read more
Algae could become an important resource in the future, if you understand the chemistry behind it. With the participation of TU Wien, researchers have now decoded how algae biomass is degrad... Read more
Physicists have discovered a new effect, which makes it possible to create excellent thermal insulators which conduct electricity. Such materials can be used to convert waste heat into elect... Read more
Scientists find a “switch” to increase starch accumulation in algae Results from a collaborative study by Tokyo Tech and Tohoku University, Japan, raise prospects for large-scale... Read more
An unconventional mélange of algae, eucalyptus and bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) appears to be a quirky ecological recipe. But, scientists from Cornell, Duke University,... Read more
Vast quantities of medicines and renewable fuels could be produced by algae using a new gene-editing technique, a study suggests. Scientists have devised a method that could lead to cheap, e... Read more
Our method is both simple and inexpensive and at the same time achieves better results than all these other systems Alison Sweeney of the University of Pennsylvania has been studying giant c... Read more
Washington State University researchers have developed a way to grow algae more efficiently — in days instead of weeks — and make the algae more viable for several industries, including biof... Read more
