A groundbreaking solar machine can now pull 1,000 litres of clean water daily from dry desert air. Developed by Professor ...

The desert doesn’t look like it has anything to give. Then night falls, the air cools, and a quiet trickle of water begins to ...

Transition metal selenides have been considered to be a good choice for electrocatalytic water splitting. In addition, Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been used to make catalysts with good ...

Scientists in the US have identified metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) capable of passively adsorbing almost nine litres of water a day per kilo. Passive water capture has the potential to impact ...

In some of the driest regions on Earth, a new technology is proving that ...

This Nobel winner's air machine pulls 1,000 liters of water daily from thin air! Read about Omar Yaghi's invention, how it works and how it is becoming a crisis fix for extremely drought areas.

Researchers use layered MOFs and selenium chemistry to create efficient, low-energy electrocatalysts for hydrogen and oxygen production in water splitting. (Nanowerk News) Transition metal selenides ...

An ultraporous compound can extract water molecules from dry desert air, store them as tiny “icicles” and then release them as clean drinking water. A new study has shown this novel humidity sponge’s ...

Every evening during the summer of 2020, Xingyi Zhou went up to the roof of her lab building at the University of Texas at Austin to check on two plastic boxes containing radish plants. Plants in one ...

The conventional view that metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) cannot be stable in water has been overturned by the development of an MOF that can selectively and effectively adsorb water to dry gas ...

Chemical weapons based on organophosphate nerve agents such as soman, also known as GD, and a chemically related phosphonothioate known as VX, rank among the most toxic compounds known. Gas masks and ...
