Seawater-Powered Generator

-

A new method of drawing direct electrochemical energy from seawater means submersible robots, vehicles and detectors could go deeper and longer into the unknown.

The test-system – which the team states is corrosive-resistant and able to tolerate numerous mode-switches – successfully ran continuously in high-energy (i.e. low power) mode for four days straight with no apparent power-loss.

Deniz Suyu-Enerjili Jeneratör

Deniz suyundan doğrudan elektrokimyasal enerji çekmenin yeni bir yöntemi, suya batırılabilir robotların, araçların ve dedektörlerin bilinmeyene daha derin ve daha uzağa gidebileceği anlamına gelir.

Takımın korozyona dayanıklı olduğunu ve çok sayıda mod anahtarını tolere edebildiğini belirttiği test sistemi - açıkça kesin bir güç kaybı olmadan dört gün boyunca yüksek enerjili (yani düşük güç) modunda başarıyla çalıştı.

Forget Treehouses OAS1S Wants To Make Houses That Look Like Trees

-

When you talk about forest retreats, you tend to imagine a place filled with treehouse structures, where people can live right atop the thick trunks and branches of large, woody plants. OAS1S has a different kind of forest retreat in mind – instead of treehouses, people live in tall structures designed to look like trees that can be in the middle of a jungle without looking out of place.

The concept imagines designing a block in the city as an open space, filled with actual trees, kind of like a miniature park reserve. Then, you erect these tree-like structures within that expanse, essentially creating a community within a forest-like enclave. The lot is designed to be free of roads, so no cars can come through, essentially creating a green place in the middle of a bustling metropolis. You know, a literal urban jungle.

The design of the OAS1S buildings are, literally, based on the form of trees, so they’re a lot more narrow (16.4 x 16.4 feet, …

What you can do to deal with hormones that may be working against you.
We often beat ourselves up for overeating or not going to the gym when we notice we can no longer fit into our favourite jeans. But it is worth noting that weight gain can be triggered by many factors like age, genes and even hormones.
Find out how different hormones are getting in the way of your weight loss efforts and how you can deal with them.
INSULIN Pancreas and plays an important role in maintaining your body's blood glucose levels.
However, overconsumption of processed food and unhealthy snacks can cause your body to develop a resistance to insulin, affecting its function to regulate blood glucose levels. This may lead to weight gain or even Type 2 diabetes. Age will also cause your body to become more insulin-resistant, resulting in your body storing more fat.
What you can do: Have a balanced diet by incorporating more green, leafy vegetables and fr…

How to Convert Earth's Plastic Pandemic Into Fuel

Our world is drowning in plastic waste—but these scientists think they have a way to turn all those empty water bottles into a fuel source.
The world is drowning in plastic waste. Ninety-one percent of the billions of tons of plastic produced is never recycled. Instead, most of it ends up in landfills, on beaches, or in the ocean.
So a team of researchers have devised a way to take old plastic and break it down into fuel.
Bioengineers working in biofuel development have spent the last 10 years using grants from to develop ways to turn agricultural waste—like byproducts from farming and logging industries—into fuel. When farmers harvest corn and process it into kernels, for example, the leftover leaves and stems are valuable waste products that can be leveraged by innovative practices and turned into something new.
A biological systems engineer of the project, told that one of the best things to do with that waste is make fuel.
“There’s a huge amount of biomass available,” he said. “W…
