ORNL Gene Discovery Can Lead to More Cost-Competitive Cellulosic Ethanol; Process Demonstrates Approach for Accelerated Industrial Strain Development

Green Car Congress

Brown says this method of processing biomass for ethanol has the potential to become a “tool kit”—a combination of mutant genes that reduce the impact of specific inhibitors. The tool kit could expand quickly, too, as scientists now have more advanced DNA sequencing technology available to identify and resequence genes. Shihui Yang.

KIT concept for simultaneous coasting and drying of two-layered electrodes could speed production and lower costs

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed and successfully tested an innovative concept for simultaneous coating and drying of two-layered electrodes. KIT Scanning electron microscopy of a multi-layered electrode cross section: Different active materials are used for the layers and applied simultaneously.

The Electrome: The Next Great Frontier For Biomedical Technology

Cars That Think

And I think it wasn’t sort of defined consistently always because there’s this idea that seems to be sort of bubbling to the top, bubbling to the surface, that there are these electrical properties that the body has, and they’re not just epiphenomena, and they’re not just in the nervous system. It’s got sodium, potassium, calcium, etc.,
