Generating power from salty water: Unique salt allows energy production to move inland

Posted: 01 Mar 2012 11:37 AM PST

Production of energy from the difference between salt water and fresh water is most convenient near the oceans, but now, using an ammonium bicarbonate salt solution, researchers can combine bacterial degradation of waste water with energy extracted from the salt-water fresh-water gradient to produce power anywhere.

In space and on Earth, why build it, when a robot can build it for you?

Posted: 01 Mar 2012 08:32 AM PST

Like something straight out of "Star Wars," armies of robots could nimbly be crawling up towers and skyscrapers to make repairs in the not-so-distant future, so humans don't have to.

Nanofiber breakthrough holds promise for medicine and microprocessors

Posted: 29 Feb 2012 07:51 AM PST

A new method for creating nanofibers made of proteins promises to greatly improve drug delivery methods, aid in regenerating human tissue, and pave the way to an organic method of building nanofibers for tiny, powerful microprocessors. Researchers have discovered how to make nanofibers using the COMP protein found in human cartilage. By adding different metal ions, researchers found the fibers would absorb or release drug molecules.
