UCR team demonstrates use of earth abundant elements in spin-mediated thermoelectric energy conversion for waste heat recovery

Green Car Congress

Mechanical engineers at the University of California, Riverside, have successfully used inexpensive materials to produce thermoelectric devices that transform low-level waste heat into electricity. In SSE, the thermal transport takes place due to the two-step spin dependent process. The FM is spin source and the NM is the spin sink.

Amazon invests in electrofuels company Infinium

Green Car Congress

The proceeds will be used to advance the development of commercial scale applications to decarbonize the transportation sector. Infinium’s proprietary Electrofuels process converts renewable power into green hydrogen, then uses this green hydrogen and waste carbon dioxide to produce net-zero carbon fuels.
