Showcasing the significant impact that Governor Andrew M. Cuomo’s high-tech blueprint holds for revitalizing urban cores and building long-term and sustainable economies in Upstate cities, City of Rensselaer Mayor Daniel J. Dwyer and SUNY Polytechnic Institute President and CEO Dr. Alain Kaloyeros today announced a strategic economic development and educational partnership.
Technology in common household humidifiers could enable the next wave of high-tech medical imaging and targeted medicine, thanks to a new method for making tiny silicone microspheres developed by chemists at the University of Illinois.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Nanoencapsulation for Food Products - Global Strategic Business Report" report to their offering.
SCIENTISTS are investigating the use of man-made sponge-like materials as a new way of solving important engineering challenges for future generations of nuclear reactors, such as the accumulation of gas, which can lead to structural weakness. Now, a research project at the University of Huddersfield has been awarded major funding to explore the possibilities.
QuantumSphere, Inc. (QSI), today announced commercial validation of its proprietary nano iron catalyst (Product Name: FeNIX™) in a production-scale ammonia plant in China. QSI is a leader in nanoscale catalyst technology used to increase production efficiency in multi-billion dollar industrial chemical processes.
Exposure of a model human colon to metal oxide nanoparticles, at levels that could be present in foods, consumer goods, or treated drinking water, led to multiple, measurable differences in the normal microbial community that inhabits the human gut. The changes observed in microbial metabolism and the gut microenvironment with exposure to nanoparticles could have implications for overall human health, as discussed in an article published in Environmental Engineering Science, a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available free on the Environmental Engineering Science website until June 1, 2015.
Momentum Fuel Technologies is pleased to introduce the industry's first complete compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel system solution for Class 6 to Class 8 trucks, offering support from design and manufacturing, to sales and ongoing service throughout the product life cycle.
Deep in the soil, underneath more than 400 plant and tree species, lurks a lethal fungus threatening Florida’s $15 billion a year ornamental horticulture industry.
Introducing flaws into liquid crystals by inserting microspheres and then controlling them with electrical fields: that, in a nutshell, is the rationale behind a method that could be exploited for a new generation of advanced materials, potentially useful for optical technologies, electronic displays and e-readers. A team of scientists (including research fellows at the International School for Advanced Studies, SISSA, in Trieste) has just published a paper in the journal Physical Review Letters where they describe just how this approach works and provide the results of a computer simulation.
By 2050 world population is projected to reach 10 billion people, and energy needs will double from what we require today. “We are nowhere near ready,” said Héctor D. Abruña at a Charter Day Weekend lecture, “Cornell and the Energy Landscape in the Age of Sustainability” April 26.
