A waterless toilet system from Loowatt seeks to address the global sanitation crisis while facilitating the creation of energy-from-waste to enhance access to renewable energy sources in local communities.
Converting CO2 into functional materials at room temperature has been a major challenge for scientists seeking to usher in the future carbon-neutral society we need to avoid the worst-case scenario outcomes of climate change. Latest research shows that converting CO2 can be possible at ambient conditions, with relatively low environmental temperature and pressure.
