Instead of treating plastic purely as waste, new research shows that it can be transformed into something useful — acetic acid, a key component of vinegar and an important industrial chemical.

And with such practice, honing this hidden sense may even become a superpower for humans. If people can pick up temperature from sound without realizing it, intentional training could enhance that ...

After a few quiet years, there are warning signs that catalytic converter thieves are back on the job. In 2023, State Farm ...

A North Carolina man was arrested in connection with catalytic converter thefts in the Grand Strand.

Solar panels on rooftops. Wind turbines on hilltops. Renewables joining a power grid that still runs, at its core, on coal and gas. The targets sound good: 35% clean energy by 2030, 50% by 2040.

As quantum Hall effects interact with subtle material vibrations, energy conversion occurs naturally, pointing toward ultra-efficient, low-voltage operation ...

Agricultural plastic mulch films are widely used around the world to increase crop yields, conserve soil moisture, and suppress weeds. However, once these films are discarded, they can persist in the ...

A new photocatalytic 2D membrane reactor achieves 99% conversion in under 7 seconds at room temperature, offering a faster ...

Agricultural plastic mulch films are widely used around the world to increase crop yields, conserve soil moisture, and suppress weeds. However, once ...

The advantage of using CPO is that it positions optical connections much closer to the ASIC, GPU, or CPU, reducing the need for long and inefficient electrical traces. And while it’s not inherently ...

Union Minister for Earth Sciences Jitendra Singh on Friday reviewed the operations of the low-temperature thermal desalination (LTTD) plant at Kavaratti in Lakshadweep, which provides drinking water ...
