Buildings can be designed to keep the heat out without contributing to climate change. Here’s how. The warmer it gets, the more people crank up the air-conditioning. In fact, AC is booming in nations across the world: It’s predicted thataround two-thirds of the world’s households could have an air conditioner by 2050, and the demand for energy to cool buildings will triple. But unless the energy comes from renewable sources, all that added demand will generate more greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute… (Continua a leggere)

Engineers have designed a scheme to let thousands of brain implants talk at up to 10 megabits per second Brain-computer interfaces have managed some amazing feats: allowing paralyzed people to type words and move a robot using only their minds, to name two examples. Brown University neuroengineering professor Arto Nurmikko has had a hand in some of those developments, but even he says the technology is at only a rudimentary stage—the equivalent of the computer understanding the brain’s intention to bend a single finger….

Dai catodi agli anodi, il riciclo batterie al litio punta al ripristino Novità sul fronte del riciclo batterie al litio. Un gruppo di ricercatori dell’Università della California, a San Diego, ha migliorato un processo in grado di “resuscitare” le unità esauste. Il gruppo, guidato dal professore di nanoingegneria Zheng Chen sta lavorando da tempo sulla rigenerazione dei catodi degradati (evitando dunque di dover smantellare completamente le batterie per ri-ottenere le singole materie prime). In una batteria agli ioni di litio a fine vita, infatti, il… (Continua a leggere)
