Novel Polymer Membranes to Accelerate Green Hydrogen Technologies
Green hydrogen is created by using wind or solar power to generate electricity, which is then used to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The resulting “green hydrogen” can…
CO2 Reduction Nanocatalysts in Action
Energy conversion strategies, like splitting water into clean hydrogen or carbon dioxide conversion into liquid fuels, require efficient catalysts to speed electrochemical reactions. Electrochemical reduction of CO2 is especially important…
Toxicological Assessment of Hydraulic Fracturing Wastewater Treatment
…wastewater treatment practices and the toxicological effects of exposure to “fracking” wastewater. With the help of zebrafish, which have an endocrine system similar to ours, the team will test untreated…
Mapping Global Emissions From Food and Agriculture
Understanding the greenhouse gas, land and water use, and economic impacts of the food and agriculture sectors can enable both consumers and policymakers to make better choices for the long-term…

…the gas from a water-based electrolyte. As the cells operate, the electrolyte environment begins to change as new chemicals are evolved, and over the course of tens of hours the…
Rapid Screening of Manure Storage Additives to Reduce Emissions and Enhance Fertilizer Benefits
In the U.S., dairy manure storage protects water quality and provides an important fertilizer source for farmers’ fields, but it also emits significant amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas,…
Expanding AnyTown USA Wastewater Treatment Facilities into Local Microgrid Hubs
Wastewater treatment facilities are promising hubs for integrating food-water-energy systems. However, most of these facilities do not recover energy or nutrients, and they account for up to 4% of all…
Get the Lead Out: Alternative Ammunition Can Solve a One Health Conundrum
Lead is a well-known toxin. Despite successful efforts to remove it from gasoline, paint, household products and drinking water, lead persists in hunting ammunition and continues to harm the humans,…
