Study: Global cancer risk from burning organic matter comes from unregulate...

MIT News
Whenever organic matter is burned, such as in a wildfire, a power plant, a car’s exhaust, or in daily cooking, the combustion releases polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) — a class of pollutants that is known to cause lung cancer.

Predicting building emissions across the US

MIT Concrete Sustainability Hub
Each region of the United States has unique characteristics that will cause building emissions to vary widely across the entire nation. An MIT team sought to understand — and respond to — these regional variations.

MIT Safe & Sustainable Labs (S2L) Program
Fume hoods like these are placed into hibernation mode when they are no longer in use for the day. Since employing the use of hibernation mode, the unoccupied Undergraduate Teaching Lab air change rate has plummeted from 11 air changes per hour to seven ACH, drastically shrinking unnecessary energy outflow, saving MIT an estimated $21,000 per year.

Using graphene foam to filter toxins from drinking water

MIT Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering
A reusable 3D functionalized reduced graphene oxide foam (3D‐FrGOF) is used as an in situ electrolytic deposition electrode to extract uranium from contaminated water.
