To make a correction to a map, these civil engineering professors at Ohio State University recommend the following steps: With a smooth, sharp knife pick the ink from the paper. Using bread was also messy, and as the writer and artist John Ruskin allegedly said, a waste of perfectly good bread. Consider the careful technique Roscoe C.

Moore attended the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, where she earned bachelors and masters degrees in electrical engineering and, in 1972, her barrier-breaking doctorate in physics. The university held a symposium in 2022 to honor Moores work and celebrate the 50th anniversary of her achievement. in Dearborn, Mich.,

Manufacturers add synthetic antioxidants to plastics, rubbers and other polymers to make them last longer. Now, researchers have detected a broad range of emerging synthetic antioxidants, called hindered phenol and sulfur antioxidants, in dust from electronic waste (e-waste) recycling workshops, possibly posing risks for the workers inside.

Researchers at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) are developing a small-scale demonstration reactor that will process 40 tons of wood waste per year from the university into replacements for diesel fuel and gasoline. This will be offered at the university pump in a 10:90 mixture with gasoline. all of which are ?ve-
