The new C5 FUEL yeast delivers fermentation and ethanol yields that set a new standard for conversion of biomass sugars from pretreated corn stover, converting up to 97% of the plant sugars into fuel, the researchers said. The results were presented at the 31 st International Fuel Ethanol Workshop this week in Minneapolis.

Researchers from CellTech Power and the University of Connecticut have demonstrated a liquid-tin anode solid-oxide fuel cell (LTA-SOFC) operating on pure biodiesel (B100) prepared via base-catalyzed transesterification of virgin and waste cooking oils. Electricity is produced by converting tin to tin oxide at the anode. Bentley, J.

For example, Google-funded experiments performed at the University of British Columbia later led to the discovery of a new way to make deuterated drugs, in which one or more hydrogen atoms is replaced with the heavier hydrogen isotope deuterium. Such drugs can be effective at lower doses, potentially with reduced side effects.

We Promote PHEV Conversion Programs: First CalCars in 2004, then a number of aftermarket companies, have converted over 200 cars — at first most were for fleets, but more and more are going to individual owners. Drivers of converted cars have received high levels of cooperation from dealer service departments so far.
