https://www.afinalwarning.com/507661.html (Natural News) Renewed efforts around the world to reduce carbon emissions have boosted the demand for platinum in the automotive industry. Hydrogen-fuel-cell technology is expected to play an important role in reducing global carbon emissions. This technology relies on platinum, which can withstand higher temperatures than other metals. Fuel cells need platinum for the catalyst that separates hydrogen into protons and electrons, which then genera...

Unfortunately, available methods to check for beef freshness have various disadvantages that keep them from being useful to the public. For example, chemical analy...

Nutrients. In particular, it showed that Type 2 diabetes patients who took 250 milligrams (mg) of magnesium every day for three months experienced significant improvements in their insulin levels, as well as in other markers for assessing glycemic control. Overall, the study’s findings support magnesium supplementation as a promising strategy for preventing and managing Type 2 diabetes. Magnesium supplementation improves insulin resistance Magnesium participates directly in glucose metaboli...

Wearable devices and biosensors are prone to heating up, especially under sunlight. However, conventional radiative coolers contain metallic materials, which limits wireless communications. Now scientists from Korea and the USA have developed a new type of radiative cooler using perforated polymers that keep the gadgets cool and fully functional under heat, paving the way for thermally protected wearable devices for health monitoring.

Texas-based Viziv Technologies is leading the way, bringing to fruition a technology that is four decades in development. Their goal is to commercialize wireless electrical energy to deliver electricity over long distances. Once finaliz...

https://www.afinalwarning.com/500232.html (Natural News) Researchers with the Navy are testing a space-based solar panel in a bid to install a solar farm in orbit around Earth. Known as the Photovoltaic Radiofrequency Antenna Module (PRAM), the solar panel is no bigger than a pizza box but can be scaled up to generate large amounts of energy. The Navy launched PRAM to space in May last year aboard its unmanned space plane X-37B. The solar panel now loops around Earth every 90 minutes, ca...

This is according to a research team from As detailed in the journal “Through finding the right temperature — which is around 850 degrees Celsius — and the right heating rate and residence time, we have been able to demonstrate the proposed method at a scale where we turn 200 kilograms of plastic waste an hour into a useful gas mixture that can then be recycled at the molecular level to become new plastic materials of virgin quality,” Henrik Thunman, an energy professor at Chalmers, ...

https://www.afinalwarning.com/499694.html (Natural News) Toyota will sell a hydrogen fuel cell module to manufacturers starting later this year as an alternative to electrified powertrains. The Japanese automaker has been at the forefront of hydrogen fuel technology since developing a hydrogen-powered electric vehicle, the Toyota Mirai. The new module will be compatible with stationary generators and various types of vehicles, including trucks, buses, trains and ships. The firm hopes that th...
