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

MIT News
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.

A greener way to 3D print stronger stuff

MIT News
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

MIT News
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.
