How to clean your bathwater in space: SCI journal highlights
Because water is so expensive to send into orbit, and because so much will be needed to support large crews of astronauts, for long-term space travel to be feasible, wastewater generated in space must be recovered and treated. For example, around 400 tons of water would be required for a 900-day mission to Mars for four astronauts.
Landscape of fear: How bat ultrasounds scares moths
Researchers have looked at the impact of bat ultrasounds on a moth species that is one of the most widespread rice pests in the world.
Calculating Canada’s green hydrogen potential
Canada has the potential to produce around 2.66m t (Mt) of green hydrogen/year by utilising its existing biomass and waste resources, including urban waste, animal byproducts, forestry products and residue, crop residue, and purpose-grown energy crops, primarily through gasification and incineration processes, according to a new study.
Applied chemistry: Journal highlights including greener hydrogels and self-healing polymers
Nigel P. Freestone from the University of Northampton summarises some of his selected research papers from recent journal issues for Issue 7-8 of C&I magazine.
