BASF announced today it is investing $25 million in renovating and expanding its research and development (R&D) facility in Beachwood, Ohio. In addition to the existing catalyst and battery materials research, the facility is being renovated to make space for a new cathode materials research team and a team of researchers focused on chemical and process engineering.
University of Utah engineers will use a five-year, $16 million grant to conduct supercomputer simulations aimed at developing a prototype low-cost, low-emissions coal power plant that could electrify a mid-sized city. The goal of this “predictive science” effort is to help power poor nations while reducing greenhouse emissions in developed ones.
A research group led by Dr. Yoshitaka Tateyama from the NIMS International Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA), in collaboration with Fujifilm Corporation, succeeded in elucidating, on the atomic level, reaction mechanisms of the reductive decomposition and binding of electrolytes toward formation of solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the interface between electrolyte and electrode, by using the K computer, the current flagship supercomputer in Japan. The findings will play a key role in improving the performance and safety of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Battery Materials Market: Trends & Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering.
The Honourable Kerry-Lynne Findlay, Minister of National Revenue and Member of Parliament for Delta–Richmond East, on behalf of the Honourable Joe Oliver, Canada’s Minister of Natural Resources, today celebrated the official opening of the Harvest Power Energy Garden site, marking the completion of an innovative clean energy project in British Columbia.
Canada Carbon Inc. (the “Company”) is pleased to announce its attendance at the Advanced Battery Trade Show at booth #B1713 in Novi, Michigan occurring September 17th – 19th 2013. The Advanced Battery Show is the premier showcase of the latest advanced battery technology.
Physicists at the University of Houston’s physics department and the Texas Center for Superconductivity are working on an innovation that could boost vehicle mileage by 5 percent and power plant and industrial processing performance as much as 10 percent.
Because petroleum is a limited resource worldwide, Fuzhong Zhang, PhD, has been working to find alternative solutions to replace it. Now, he has received an $860,000 award to use common bacteria to make gasoline and other chemicals now derived from petroleum.
A team of researchers in Ireland have found evidence that altering the chemistry of an electrode surface (surface engineering) can help microbial communities to connect to the electrode to produce more electricity (electron-exchange) more rapidly compared to unmodified electrodes.
Dr. Pavel Tsvetkov, associate professor in the Department of Nuclear Engineering, participated in the IAEA Technical Meeting on Development of “Deep-Burn” Concepts using High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor (HTGR) coated Particle Fuel for Incineration of Nuclear Waste, Surplus Fissile Materials and Plutonium without Recourse to Multiple Processing.
