Novel N02 Sensor Created

Scientists at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), working with partners from the Graphene Flagship, Chalmers University of Technology, the Advanced Institute of Technology, Royal Holloway University and Linköping University, have created a low-cost, low-energy consuming NO2 sensor that measures NO2 levels in real-time. The World Health Organisation reported that 4.2 million deaths every year are a direct result of exposure to ambient air pollution such as NO2, SO2, NH3, CO2 and CO. One of the most dangerous pollutants, NO2 gas, is produced by burning fossil fuels e.g. in diesel engines. Significant...

Water Industry Takes Significant First Step in Drive to be Carbon Zero

Water Industry Takes Significant...

Water companies in England have today launched a major project to design the plan that will help deliver their world-leading goal to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2030. The water industry is the first industrial sector in the UK, and one of the first major sectors in the world, to commit to a carbon zero future by 2030. The goal forms part of the industry’s Public Interest Commitment (PIC) released earlier this year with the carbon zero goal one of five stretching social and...

How Multiple Factors of...

Team of scientists at Freie Universität Berlin study effects of multiple factors of global change / Study appeared in latest issue of “Science” A team of ecologists at Freie Universität Berlin studied soil and how it was affected by multiple factors of global change. The team led by Prof. Dr. Matthias Rillig experimentally examined effects of up to ten factors of global change by randomly adding an increasing number of such factors. Results on soil functions and biodiversity showed consistent trends with increasing number of...
