A new and simple method for upcycling plastic waste at room temperature has been developed by a team of researchers at the Centre for Sustainable and Circular Technologies (CSCT) at the University of Bath. The researchers hope the new process will help recycling become more economically viable.
An international team of researchers have published a study in Cleaner Engineering and Technology exploring the recent advances in achieving the circular economy and the progress in associated technological applications.
Renewable technologies such as solar and wind power are leading areas of interest for research as environment protection and renewable energy global trends influence how humans approach energy strategies toward a green and peaceful future for the planet.
In an article recently published in the journal MRS Energy & Sustainability, researchers discussed the opportunities and problems related to the integration of the international circular (bio)economy concept with the development of sustainable polymer materials.
In a recent study published in the journal Biomass Conservation and Biorefinery, researchers from India analyzed the potential of plasma gasification technology for the treatment of medical waste.
Natural polymers offer a range of advantages over synthetic polymers, not least when employed in personal care products such as hair cosmetics.
In a recent research paper published in the journal Gels, researchers developed a biocompatible hydrogel made from chitosan.
A new study by Oregon State University scientists outlines a key advance in turning apple waste into an environmentally friendly packaging material that could serve as an alternative to plastic.
Green roofs are a key tool in the reduction of the phenomenon known as the ‘urban heat island effect,’ an increasingly common scenario where cities replace vast areas of natural land cover with dense areas of buildings, pavements, and other features which absorb and retain heat.
A team of scientists at the RIKEN Centre for Sustainable Resource Science (CSRS) in Japan headed by Ryuhei Nakamura has discovered a new practical and sustainable approach for generating hydrogen from water. On contrary to current approaches, the new method does not need rare metals that are short in supply or costly.
