(Natural News) Single-use plastics like plastic bags and plastic bottles could provide airplanes with the fuel they need to fly. In a recent breakthrough, a team of researchers from the University of Delaware found a way to break down single-use plastic waste into smaller carbon molecules, which can be used for jet fuel and diesel. Using […]

(Natural News) Researchers developed a new catalyst that generates hydrogen fuel while destroying water pollutants. In a study published on March 17 in the journal ACS ES&T Engineering, the researchers described how they merged multiple metals to more efficiently produce hydrogen from wastewater. Exploring a clean and efficient way of generating hydrogen Hydrogen is a low-polluting source of energy and one of the […]

(Natural News) Researchers have discovered a new kind of active matter that bends the laws of physics. Dubbed “swirlon,” the new matter behaves similarly to how fishes swim in schools and birds fly in murmurations. The laws of physics apply to passive, nonliving matter, ranging from planets all the way down to the smallest atoms. But according to […]

(Natural News) Noted for their ability to be molded and used for different purposes, plastics are some of the world’s most versatile materials. However, they are also considered to be among the most dangerous – especially for the environment. In fact, according to previous estimates by experts, there would be more plastic than fish in […]

(Natural News) Scientists have been able to confirm the source of a short-lived “radio outburst.” Apparently, it comes from a galaxy located 3.6 billion light years away from Earth. This short-lived radio outburst is known as a fast radio burst (FRB) and scientists have been perplexed by them for years. They appear as fleeting signals from distant universes that […]

(Natural News) Metallic hydrogen is a state of hydrogen wherein the element is able to conduct electricity. Scientists have spent close to a century attempting to create this material. A team of French researchers now claim that they’ve done it. Normally, hydrogen isn’t a great conductor. However, physicists since the 1930s have suspected that if hydrogen were […]

(Natural News) Despite all the alarm and warnings about fossil fuels and carbon dioxide emissions, the “scientific” establishment has systematically blocked the publication of science papers and the dissemination of knowledge about cold fusion, also known as Low-Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR). LENR describes a phenomenon that has been replicated in hundreds of laboratories around the […]

(Natural News) New York-based researchers developed self-assembling nanomaterials for solar technology applications. Photovoltaic cells made from these materials reached up to 44 percent higher levels of efficiency. Furthermore, the cells generated more usable solar charges. Sunlight is an abundant source of clean energy. Industries are switching from traditional, highly polluting fossil fuel energy sources to solar power […]

(Natural News) A new “DNA dipstick” could revolutionize disease diagnosis and improve general healthcare in third-world countries. Scientists have simplified genotyping into a tool that purifies DNA and RNA from living organisms in under 30 seconds. Their recent technology is featured in PLOS Biology and shows how genetic material from organisms can be typed in mere […]

(Natural News) Researchers from around the world have come to the university town of Greifswald, Germany to run tests on one of the biggest and most complex fusion reactors ever built. Their latest experiment campaign could help speed up the predicted timetable for practical fusion power, an article in Science Daily stated. The Wendelstein 7-X […]
