Under hydraulic pressure, piezoelectric current pulses and the interface electric field generate ROS and dielectrophoretic forces (Fdep), contributing to the degradation and repulsion of diverse pollutants. Dielectrophoretic forces, Fdep, describe the motion force of particles due to the action of a nonuniform electric field on the particles induced dipole (image credit: Qiancheng Xia et al).

An international team of scientists has discovered a way to store and release volatile hydrogen using lignin-based jet fuel that could open new pathways for sustainable energy production. In a new study scientists demonstrated that a type of lignin-based jet fuel they developed can chemically bind hydrogen in a stable liquid form. The research has many potential applications in fuels and transportation and could ultimately make it easier to harness hydrogen's potential as a high energy and zero

The UKs ambitious target to increase electric vehicle (EV) sales to 80% of all new car purchases by 2030 could result in them accounting for up to 5% of total power demand, according to energy analysts at Montel, though there are concerns whether capacity buildout will be adequate. As the UK government works towards a carbon-free grid by the end of the decade, the expected rise in EV adoption presents both opportunities and challenges for the nations energy infrastructure.

You can get a flight from, say, Edinburgh to London for a fraction of the cost of a train ticket, while emitting ten times as much carbon.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
