Book reviews technologies aiming to remove carbon from the atmosphere

MIT Energy Initiative

“Carbon Removal,” by MIT Energy Initiative Senior Research Engineer Howard Herzog (pictured) and Professor Niall Mac Dowell of Imperial College London, explores the history and intricacies of removing carbon dioxide from the Earth’s atmosphere.

MIT engineers solve the sticky-cell problem in bioreactors and other indust...

To test their setup, researchers allowed algae cells to stick to the surface of the photobioreactor. When they applied a voltage, the bubbles separated the cells from the surfaces without harming them.

How to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from ammonia production

MIT Energy Initiative

MIT researchers have proposed an approach for combined blue-green ammonia production that minimizes waste products and, when combined with some other simple upgrades, could reduce the greenhouse emissions from ammonia production by as much as 63 percent, compared to the leading “low-emissions” approach being used today.

A greener way to 3D print stronger stuff

A new software and hardware toolkit called SustainaPrint can help users strategically combine strong and weak filaments to achieve the best of both worlds. Instead of printing an entire object with high-performance plastic, the system analyzes a model, predicts where the object is most likely to experience stress, and reinforces those zones with stronger material.

New self-assembling material could be the key to recyclable EV batteries

A depiction of batteries made with MIT researchers’ new electrolyte material, which is made from a class of molecules that self-assemble in water, named aramid amphiphiles (AAs), whose chemical structures and stability mimic Kevlar.
