Using Artificial Intelligence for Reducing Food Waste in Commercial Kitchens
Worldwide, one-third of all food produced for human consumption goes to waste. In the hospitality and food-service industry alone, the cost of wasted food is over $100 billion per year….
Methanotrophic Biofilters for Mitigating Methane Emissions From Abandoned Oil and Gas Wells
…as low-cost and readily-scalable technologies to sustainably mitigate methane emissions from abandoned wells. This research will combine laboratory experiments with field-based measurements of abandoned wells in western New York to…
Engineered Living Materials for Indoor Air Quality Control
…will lead to novel materials and devices, such as self-healing tiles that break down toxic chemicals in indoor environments. Ultimately, researchers expect to achieve sustainability by enabling low-cost autonomous indoor…
Accelerating Offshore Wind Energy
…to harness offshore wind resources in a manner that maximizes electricity production and minimizes the levelized cost of energy. This project will accelerate the energy transition while also training the…
Manure Mesocosms: Test Systems to Inform Sustainable Dairy Manure Management (TNC)
…gas emissions. As livestock production continues to intensify there is increasing need to evaluate scalable, low-capital cost solutions that improve the sustainable management of manure in long-term storage. The researchers…
High-Efficiency Electro-Swing Carbon Capture Using Redox-Active Organic Polymers
…costs required for CO2 desorption. Here, the researchers propose to develop a new class of adsorbents in which electricity can be used instead of heat or vacuum to recover CO2…
Sardine Harvest Control for the Philippines
…cost-effective method for estimating sardine biomass, a measurement of total adult stock that allows fishery managers to calculate optimal annual catch limits. The project aims to support adaptive fishery management,…
