Researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a simple technique for producing oxide nanowires directly from bulk materials under ambient conditions without the use of catalysts or any external stimuli. The alloy is then placed in a suitable solvent, which could include a range of alcohols, such as ethanol.

The pump was developed by researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology, with collaborators from Purdue University and Stanford University. That technology differs from centrifugal and other pump technologies, but Henry chose it for its simplicity and ability to operate at relatively low speeds.
