A new take on carbon capture

“This is a pragmatic solution that’s not trying to reshape the world as we dream of it. It’s looking at the problem at hand today and fixing it,” Cameron Halliday says.

MIT startup aims to expand America’s lithium production

The Lithios system uses an undisclosed electrode material that attaches to lithium when exposed to precise voltages. Co-founder and CEO Mo Alkhadra explains: “Think of a big battery with wastewater flowing into the system. When the brine comes into contact with our electrodes, it selectively pulls lithium while rejecting essentially all the other contaminants.”

New lightweight polymer film can prevent corrosion

MIT researchers tested the gas permeability of their new polymer films by suspending them over microwells to form bubbles. Some bubbles from 2021 experiments are still inflated. This optical micrograph shows how the films form very colorful spots when suspended over microwells.

Why some quantum materials stall while others scale

MIT researchers have developed a system for evaluating the scale-up potential of quantum materials. Their data-driven framework combines a material’s quantum behavior with its cost, supply chain resilience, environmental footprint, and other factors.
