Sunlight gives biodiesel by-product a second life as hydrogen and valuable chemicals
Researchers have demonstrated a solar-driven approach to convert glycerol, a low-value by-product of biodiesel production, into hydrogen and higher-value chemicals
Part 2: What does a radiation event cost the aviation industry?
The cost of building radiation-hardness testing into the design and qualification of electronics is typically well under one per cent of a major project’s budget.
Insights in soil fertility can help guide more targeted fertiliser strategies for long-term soil management across Australia
Study revealed that the chemical forms of sulfur change when land is converted from undisturbed soils to cropping soils and forms of sulfur which bind strongly to the soil mineral particles remains far more stable.

The evolution of molten salt reactors
Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear reactors that use a fluid fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt rather than the solid fuel used in most reactors. Since the fuel salt is liquid, it can be both the fuel to produce heat and the coolant to transport the heat to a power plant.
