Australian clean technology startup ULUU will combat climate change by capturing and sequestering carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and into bioplastic products.
Material science plays a fundamental role in building design. From solid foundations like validating mechanical properties to lofty ambitions like developing a sustainable future for the construction industry, materials scientists are at work making buildings more effective, efficient, and sustainable.
Carbonauten is a German clean technology startup on a mission to remove anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. The company plans to build “minus CO2 factories” that house waste carbon activation and biorefinery processes under the same roof.
Researchers recently used cutting inspection techniques combining microscopy with spectroscopy to shed new light on millennia-old Egyptian papyrus, uncovering new information about this ancient historical period.
Prometheus Materials, a startup commercializing University of Colorado Boulder research, recently began full-scale production of a coral-inspired organic biocomposite concrete alternative that could eventually become carbon-negative.
