Hydrogen Sensor from Organometallic Precursor
The Problem Sensors require excessive operation power which results in high cost and complex operation. The Solution Novel nanoscale sensors with ultra-low power consumption The Commercial Benefit Our innovative nanoscale sensors are easy to deploy, consume significantly less power, and is almost entirely disposable Market Potential The nanosensor market is expected to reach a CAGR of 79.83%…
Read MoreFUNCIONALIZED CARBON NANOTUBE COMPOSITE FOR USE IN LEAD ACID BATTERY
The Problem Lead Acid batteries are successfully used for over a century. The relative low cost, almost complete recycling cycle and maturity are the bases for further improvements and mitigations of some disadvantages in order to establish a viable power source for the 21st century. Present SLI lead acid batteries suffer from short cycle life…
Read MoreEfficient and Economic Selective Bromide Ions Removal and Recovery of Water
The Problem Development of bromine compounds markets is strongly affected by new global environmental regulations that forbids the production of wastewater containing bromide that are discharged to surface water systems. Furthermore, high bromide in conjunction with high organic carbon (OC) is widely recognized to be the worst-case scenario for drinking water plants. Inability to achieve low…
Read MoreA Bimetallic Catalyst and Fuel for Use in a Direct Dimethyl Ether Fuel Cell
The Problem At the current rate of global energy demands, new, alternative energy technologies must be developed to accommodate our needs. For more than a decade, it was strongly believed that hydrogen can help address the growing demand for energy and slow down global climate change. Hydrogen fuel is used together with oxygen in an…
