New biochemical leaching process uses corn stover to recover rare earth metals from electronic waste
A study has determined that aside from being used as fodder or bedding, corn stover can be used as feedstock for a new biochemical leaching process. This revolutionary process helps recover valuable rare earth metals from electronic waste. The biochemical leaching process is similar to a mining process and it requires the use of corn stover. […]

Europe is ALL IN for renewable energy: They are planning to build an artificial island in the North Sea to support the world’s largest wind farm
By 2027, an artificial island in the North Sea could soon be providing renewable energy for at least 80 million individuals in Europe. Dubbed the “North Sea Wind Power Hub,” the artificial power island will house “a small team of permanent staff.” The island will send electricity via long-distance cables to Britain and the Netherlands, […]

As scientists inch closer to fighting cancer with nanobots, would you embrace having programmable robots in your bloodstream?
Scientists and researchers from the University of Cambridge have revealed that they are currently developing nanotechnology that can “navigate” a patient’s body and help fight cancer. But this effort, while laudable, raises one question: is it feasible to develop this technology instead of merely promoting lifestyle changes that can also prevent cancer? Technology advances by leaps and […]

Anthropologists discover how teeth reveal vitamin D levels: X-rays can now be used to check for deficiency
We often take care of our oral health to make sure that our breath stays fresh, but did you know that dental X-rays can be used to determine vitamin D deficiencies (rickets)? While this is a grave health concern that often goes undiagnosed, Lori D’Ortenzio and Megan Brickley, anthropologists from McMaster University, have revealed that it can be […]

New level of intelligence: A new AI can teach itself with a “reinforcement learning algorithm” resulting in “superhuman” abilities within hours
It has been two decades since DeepBlue defeated Garry Kasparov in a match, but chess players were surprised by another development. The AlphaZero algorithm, a collaboration between Google and DeepMind, has recently shattered records. Even though DeepMind’s AlphaZero played against itself for only four hours, it managed to “synthesize the chess knowledge of one and a half millennium.” […]

Drones are causing more damage to airplanes than birds
Scientists from The Ohio State University are collaborating with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to assess the dangers posed by “drones that share airspace with planes.” The collaboration is part of a multi-institution study on unmanned aerial systems. In November, a research team from the Alliance for System Safety of UAS through Research Excellence (ASSURE) published a report […]

Turning heat into electricity: Engineers are working on technology that will harvest clean energy from pavement
While solar energy is a clean source of energy, not everyone can afford the often expensive installation costs. Now, a recent article has revealed that we might soon be able to harness solar energy from hot pavements. Samer Dessouky, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at The University of Texas at San Antonio, received […]
