One World – One Environment – One Network
Artificial intelligence is helping researchers upcycle waste carbon. A collaboration between University of Toronto Engineering and Carnegie Mellon University has produced a record-setting catalyst for CO2-to-ethylene conversion. Researchers at University of Toronto Engineering and...
UK researchers have developed a cheap and simple way of creating biofuel and fertiliser from seaweed, whilst removing plastic from the oceans and cleaning up tourist beaches in the Caribbean and Central America. Millions...
An international research project has revealed the highest levels of microplastic ever recorded on the seafloor, with up to 1.9 million pieces in a thin layer covering just one square metre. Over 10 million...
Scientists are unraveling the properties of electricity-conducting plastics so they can be used in future energy-harvesting devices. The insight could help accelerate the development of wearable power sources for a vast number of Internet-of-things...
A team of scientists has for the first time developed a way of predicting the size of plastics different animals are likely to ingest. The research could help measure the risk of plastic pollution...
Nanoscale particles of the most commonly used plastics tend to move through the water supply, especially in fresh water, or settle out in wastewater treatment plants. We end up drinking a few grams of...
