(Polytech University of Madrid (Google Translation)) Researchers at the UPM obtain biodiesel from a mixture of low-quality animal fat with soybean oil and, once characterized according to technical regulations, have tested its behavior in a Diesel engine. Today, renewable fuels, such as biodiesel, are the most promising alternative to partially replace the consumption of fossil fuels. However, if these increasing amounts of biodiesel come from vegetable oils, it has recently been confirmed that the promotion of biofuels could lead to a shortage of raw materials for food and a sharp rise in the prices of food, which could lead to poverty in some regions. In this context, researchers from the Higher Technical School of Mining Engineers of the UPM , in collaboration with the ETS of Industrial Engineers of the University of Castilla-La Mancha, have experimentally produced a new biodiesel (1) from mixtures of animal fats and soybean oil.

Researchers from Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU) have developed and manufactured Prism, a unique 3D printer.
The 3D-printer was manufactured and first demonstrated on January 29, 2021. The main purpose of the developed printer is to print structures made of titanium, which is essential for various industries due to its strength properties and low specific weight.
The printing system is located in a chamber with an inert atmosphere. This printer may also be used to print products made of steel, aluminum, magnesium, nickel alloys.

Researchers from Peter the Great St.Petersburg Polytechnic University (SPbPU) developed and manufactured a unique 3D printer named the Prism . The 3D-printer was manufactured and firstly demonstrated on January 29, 2021. The main purpose of the developed printer is to print structures made of titanium, an expensive material, but essential for various industries due to its strength properties and low specific weight. The printing system is located in a chamber with an inert atmosphere. This printer may also be used to print products made of steel, aluminum, magnesium, nickel alloys. The researchers used the wire as a raw material to ensures the high productivity of the process. The layer-by-layer deposition is performed in the 3D printer, in which the wire is melted due to the burning of an electric arc. In developed printer two wires can be fed simultaneously to increase productivity and to synthesize new alloy
