Lehigh receives grant to reduce cost of carbon capture at coal-fired power plants (Chemistry News)

(Lehigh University) A US Department of Energy grant will help develop methods of recovering and reusing heat generated by the compression of CO2 in a carbon-capture system. The goal is to facilitate carbon capture and sequestration and limit the amount of CO2…

In the space of one hundred and seventy-six years the Mississippi has shortened itself two hundred and forty-two miles. Therefore ... in the Old Silurian Period the Mississippi River was upward of one million three hundred thousand miles long ... seven hundred and forty-two years from now the Mississippi will be only a mile and three-quarters long. ... There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesome returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.

Extend browsers power (Cheminformatics Footprints) (Chemistry News)

One of friend shown me Google NaCl (Native Client), which allows x86 binary runs in different browsers on different OS through a sandbox.  This is very interesting.  (1) Some heavy computation can be performed in a browser, such as 3D geometry…

Lehigh receives grant to reduce cost of carbon capture at coal-fired power plants

(Lehigh University) A US Department of Energy grant will help develop methods of recovering and reusing heat generated by the compression of CO2 in a carbon-capture system. The goal is to facilitate carbon capture and sequestration and limit the amount of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere by coal-fired power plants. Unlike other modeling studies, which focus on specific components of the carbon-capture system, the Lehigh researchers will look at the entire power plant.
