In nanoscale particle research, precise control and separation have long been a bottleneck in biotechnology. Researchers at the University of Oulu have now developed a new method that improves ...

AMES, Iowa – Martin Thuo likes to look for new, affordable and clean ways to put science and technology to work in the world. His lab is dedicated to an idea called frugal innovation: “How do you do ...

In a twist on conventional wisdom, researchers have discovered that in ocean-like fluids with changing density, tiny porous particles can sink faster than larger ones, thanks to how they absorb salt.

Researchers have discovered a "shape-recovering liquid" that appears to defy the laws of thermodynamics. The liquid, which is made up of oil, water and magnetized particles, consistently separates ...

Subsea gas-liquid separation combined with pressure boosting allows the development of fields that have insufficient tubinghead flowing pressure for attaining adequate production rates to the host ...

An Irish teenager's innovative project made invisible microplastic pollution visible. Fionn Ferreira used magnetic liquids to attract tiny plastic particles from water. This simple yet powerful ...
