This product is a community sized unit that converts food waste to energy and compost. Each American produces 231lbs of food waste a year. Rather than this being a problem it can be a valuable commodity.
Food waste is a noxious material if dumped on landfill.
The proposed super-resolution multiplexed line scan microscopy system realizes photon reassignment (PRA) microscopy technique for imaging fluorophore-labeled specimens. Unlike existing PRA techniques with a restricted two-fold resolution enhancement, the present system surpasses diffraction Abbe limit by a factor m=〖(σ_D/σ_E)〗^2+1>
EXECUTIVE SUMMARYWireless IoT devices are notoriously easy to hack. Often an attacker goes unnoticed as they assume the identity of an edge device and use it to connect with the network. Once in a network, the hacker may cause a great deal of damage or steal important information.
Electrochemical Recycling Electronic Constituents of Value (eRECOV) offers a game-changing solution to growing challenges of electronic waste. The economical and environmentally sound process eliminates the need for traditional recycling methods such as smelting and cyanide leaching. The chemistry in eRECOV is continuously regenerated, and its solution is reusable.

Neurodegenerative dementia is a disease that progressively deteriorates brain functionality. One of the most common symptoms of dementia is memory loss. In addition, patients usually lose the ability to solve problems or control their emotions and present changes in personality and normal behavior.
This device is specially for domestic motorcycles. i.e., motorcycles up to 150cc segment, since there is no Anti lock braking system in such motorcycle because it is quite expensive for them.
Currently all commercial continuously variable transmissions (CVT’s) in the automotive industry function on a friction drive principle. This friction drive interface exists between two hardened smooth steel surfaces separated by a traction fluid film. Traction fluid has the unique property in that it solidifies under high pressure,
Novel low cost / electrically conductive / Li-ion corrosion resistant nitrogen atoms doped ultrananocrystalline diamond (N-UNCD) coating provides excellent chemically robust encapsulation of commercial natural graphite (NG)/copper (Cu) anodes and new textured Si-based anodes, currently under development for Li-ion batteries (LIB),
As the core of a modular, optionally-manned, single-stage-to-orbit, reusable, trans-atmospheric spaceplane; this combined-cycle engine which operates on JP-7 jet fuel, and either air or LOX; functions as an Expansion-Cycle Turbojet for takeoffs and landings (for noise reasons).
The AxOPOC Engine is a hybridization of the EcoMotors’ EM-Series Opposing Piston Opposing Cylinder engine, and a sinusoidal-cam wobble-plate engine (aka. Revolver-cam/Dynacam engine). In this case,
