The National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) and the Institute of Communication and Computer Systems (ICCS) are pleased to announce the establishment of the first Energy Competence Center in Greece, a cluster that aims to support and promote innovation, entrepreneurship and technical competencies among enterprises that are operating in the […]
Zeolites are extremely porous materials: Ten grams can have an internal surface area the size of a soccer field. Their cavities make them useful in catalyzing chemical reactions and thus saving energy. An international research team has now made new findings regarding the role of water molecules in these processes. […]
The roads of the future will create music to warn drivers of a hazard on the road or of excess speed; they will turn vehicles into sources of energy to turn on streetlights; they will be able to tell us the weight of a lorry and automatically charge electric vehicles. […]
Traditional treatments of industrial effluent, that is, the resulting liquid waste sent out from factories, are mainly based on removing pollutants, and then throwing them in water courses. The search for more sustainable alternatives than that one, which make use of technological advances is the focus of the work developed […]
