Tennessee has a problem — two-thirds of our rivers and waterways are unmonitored, leaving us blind to sudden changes in water ...

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄) is a type of volatile organic compound (VOC) that was once widely used as a refrigerant and cleaning agent, but is now strictly regulated due to its toxic properties.

Device uses ultrasonic waves to harvest water 45x faster – Credit: Ikra Iftekhar / MIT (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0) Even in desert conditions, there exists some level of humidity that, with the right material, ...

Water reuse is a vital solution to growing water insecurity—offering a reliable, climate-resilient supply for cities and industries facing increasing stress on traditional water sources. While the ...

Carlo Gavazzi has launched three new series of ultrasonic sensors with integrated IO-Link communication: the UA12, UA18 and UA30 ASD..IO Series. These sensors feature a compact design with reduced ...

MIT researchers have found a way to use the mechanical vibrations of sound waves to shake water molecules free from a storage medium. The breakthrough significantly speeds up the process of harvesting ...

California reservoir water levels are in "incredible shape," with all of the state's major reservoirs at or above 100 percent of historical average for this time of year, according to data from the ...

CLEVELAND, Ohio — People walking, running or launching boats along Lake Erie’s shorelines may have noticed more exposed beach and rock than in recent years — a subtle sign the lake has dipped below ...

MIT engineers have created an ultrasonic device that rapidly frees water from materials designed to absorb moisture from the air. Instead of waiting hours for heat to evaporate the trapped water, the ...

MIT engineers design an ultrasonic system to “shake” water out of an atmospheric water harvester. The design (two prototypes shown in photo) can recover captured water in minutes rather than hours.

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Though the meaning of smart home varies depending on who you ask, with so many useful smart sensors for your home, if your home isn't smart, ...
