However, if stretch productivity targets are met and more effective and efficient dewatering technologies are used (or if a large fraction of the thermal energy input in drying is ‘renewable’ or ‘waste’ heat), this technology set can have a favorable energy balance and provide GHG mitigation benefits relative to petroleum-derived fuels.

Researchers at MIT, with colleagues at the University of Minnesota, have provided evidence and theoretical rate coefficients for new pathways in the low-temperature oxidation of hydrocarbons. The new analysis is explained in a paper by MIT graduate student Amrit Jalan, chemical engineering professor William Green, and six other researchers.

The DIGIT touch sensor is based on the GelSight style of sensor, which was first conceptualized at MIT over a decade ago. ReSkin operates on a fairly simple concept: it's a flexible sheet of 2mm thick silicone with magnetic particles carelessly mixed in. DIGIT is open source, so you can make one on your own, but that's a hassle.
