Scientists have developed a new technique that could help farmers extract useful nutrients such as ammonia and potassium from livestock manure to efficiently make fertilizer and other useful chemical products.

The chemical reaction behind corrosion is not well understood on an atomic level, but transmission electron microscopy is bringing new insights.

An international team of experts undertaking fundamental research has developed a way of using polyethylene waste (PE) as a feedstock and converted it into valuable chemicals, via light-driven photocatalysis.

New findings reveal how degradation of all-solid-state batteries occurs at the cathode under low-pressure operation. Providing clues to accelerate commercialization of all-solid-state batteries.

Researchers from EPFL have resolved a long-standing debate surrounding laser additive manufacturing processes with a pioneering approach to defect detection.

Grinding coffee generates static electricity, which causes the coffee particles to clump and stick to the grinder. But does this clumping affect the taste of coffee? Yes, but water can make things slick again.

New technique developed by researchers at McGill and UQAM offers unprecedented view inside lithium-ion batteries, potentially leading to dramatically faster charging times for EVs, computers, and phones.

The nanonetworks in bird feathers have been replicated in a material that could be used in batteries and water filters.

A new study has demonstrated how bacteria use the viscosity of mucus to enhance their ability to self-organize and possibly drive infection.

Reverse metabolomics is a new technique that combines organic synthesis, data science and mass spectrometry to better understand what molecules are being secreted by the microbiome and how they affect human health.
