Glass and ceramics are both inorganic materials with useful physical properties that can withstand a high amount of thermal shock and harsh environments. As material scientists continue to find ways ...

A 25-year-long study provides the first quantitative measurement of in situ calcium-magnesium silicate mineral dissolution by ants, termites, tree roots, and bare ground. This study reveals that ants ...

A study was made of the use of magnesium silicates as adsorbents for phosphate present in water. It was found that the phosphate absorption capacity for the minerals and the alumina studied is in the ...

Stanford University chemists have developed a practical, low-cost way to permanently remove atmospheric carbon dioxide, the ...

Ammonium salts could provide a viable way of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere via carbon mineralization, studies suggest. Their work focused on using carbon mineralization, a process that ...

Reducing carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere is critical to slowing global warming. While direct air capture (DAC) ...

You are watching a long-held idea in stellar physics face serious scrutiny. Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, ...
