Taking Energy from the Sun and Carbon from the Air to Create New Forms of Biofuels

For decades, farmers have been trying to find ways to get more energy out of the sun. In natural photosynthesis, plants take in solar energy and carbon dioxide and then convert it to oxygen and sugars. The oxygen is released to the air and the sugars are dispersed throughout the plant - like that sweet corn we look for in the summer.

Layered Graphene Sheets Could Solve Hydrogen Storage Issues

Graphene-carbon formed into sheets a single atom thick-now appears to be a promising base material for capturing hydrogen, according to recent research* at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the University of Pennsylvania. The findings suggest stacks of graphene layers could potentially store hydrogen safely for use in fuel cells and other applications.

Scientists Develop Highly Promising Approach to New Variety of Lithium-Ion Battery

A common problem with notebook computers is that the battery delivers power for far too short a time, which only gets shorter as it gets older. If you don't take great care with your rechargeable battery at all times, its life drains away quite fast. Improved batteries that deliver significantly more energy, last longer, and are safer are thus the subject of current research.
