Wastewater treatment plants may soon generate electricity for cities thanks to improved microbial fuel cells
Microbial fuel cell technology shows plenty of promise for generating electricity in places where power sources may be limited, but they haven’t been perfected yet. Now a group of researchers from the Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) have shown that it’s possible to improve their efficiency with the use of modified graphite felt. After testing, […]

What do tears, milk and egg whites have in common? They are now a renewable source of energy
Applying pressure to a protein found in tears, milk, and egg whites has been shown to generate electricity, according to a study published in Applied Physics Letters. A team of researchers from the Bernal Institute at the University of Limerick in Ireland has recently discovered that electricity can be produced by pressing crystals of lysozyme, a protein that can be found in abundance in egg […]
