A team at the University of Georgia, Athens led by Distinguished Research Professor Michael Adams has discovered tungsten in what appears to be a novel enzyme in the biomass-degrading thermophilic bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor bescii. Tungsten is exceptionally rare in biological systems. —Scott et al. Scott, Gabe M. Rubinstein, Gina L.

A ceramic-based mechanical pump able to operate at record temperatures of more than 1,400 ˚C (1,673 K) can transfer high-temperature liquids such as molten tin, enabling a new generation of energy conversion and storage systems. The pump operates in a nitrogen environment to prevent oxidation at the extreme temperatures.

To increase the efficiency of the conversion process, microbes are needed that can break down cellulose and ferment it into biofuels in a single set of reactions. The target: microbes that eat cellulose to produce desired fuels and thrive in high-temperature environments without oxygen. Riley, L.A., Schmitz, R.J.
