The Japanese company Kuraray has developed a new purification system for ballast water of merchant ships.
To keep their balance, empty cargo ships need to compensate for the absence of the goods they store water in tanks designed for that purpose. When they retrieve a new load, they restored at the sea.

Two studies published in the journal Energy Policy shows that wind still has a bright future ahead of it in Europe, particularly Spain.
The first study by a team of engineers at the University of Zaragoza shows that it is technically feasible and economically reasonable since it represents 30% of Spanish energy production. On the other hand, a report by two researchers at the University of Alcala (UAH) and the European Association of Wind Energy Association (EWEA) show that the development of wind power has increased 226% of jobs created in this sector throughout the EU.

In the early 70s, the Danish state had invited a study group composed of industrial, political, and researchers to consider the future of wind energy. Their conclusion was: “Wind energy is probably not a significant share of electricity produced in Denmark.”
But Denmark has increased and wind energy now accounts for about 19% of its electricity. Today the country is a new challenge, that of wave energy, which he bet she will experience a similar evolution over the next twenty years. The government has thus allocated 20 million kroner (3 million euros) to build a prototype at scale 1 / 2 “machine to recover energy from waves” of society Wave Star Energy .

With high gas prices, it is disheartening to know that three quarters of the potential energy you are paying for is wasted. Much of the fuel goes out the tailpipe instead of drive your car. Now a research team at Northwestern University has identified a promising new material that could turn the technology that currently cools and heats the car seats and thermoelectric, one that also efficiently convert waste heat into electricity to help power the car and improve fuel mileage offers. The researchers discovered that adding two metals,
