Scientists at the University of Delaware are developing a new low-cost material for hydrogen storage—carbonized chicken feathers (CCFF)—that they say could meet the DOE requirements for hydrogen storage and are competitive with carbon nanotubes and metal hydrates at a tiny fraction of their cost. Wool, University of Delaware.

Researchers at the Isfahan University of Technology (Iran), have demonstrated the use of a dilute acid hydrolysis process to convert rice straw—a cheap, abundant and mainly unused ag waste—to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and furfural. Both furans are components for production of different chemicals and fuels.

Hence, in order to reduce the cost of biodiesel production, using cheaper feedstocks such as waste oil or low-quality oil has been proposed. However, its use has been challenging as a result of impurities such as water and large amounts of free fatty acids (FFAs), which are common in most waste materials. Click to enlarge.
