Bio-based resin may find use in recyclable wind turbine blades
Posted by ArielTechGeek 14 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Although wind turbines generate electricity via an eco-friendly process, the giant blades of those turbines typically end up in landfills once they wear out. That could change, however, thanks to a new bio-based resin that would allow old blades to be broken down and recycled into new ones.Continue ReadingCategory: Environment, ScienceTags: Wind turbine, Recyclable, NREL, Materials

Wall-building robot eyed for blast shield construction on the Moon
Posted by ArielTechGeek 37 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
When you live on the Moon, your only option for commuting back to Earth or onward to Mars will be some kind of rocket. But each launch will kick up a hellstorm of debris. Building walls to contain all that mess might one day fall to autonomous rovers.Continue ReadingCategory: Space, ScienceTags: artemis, Moon, Lunar, Mars, ETH Zurich, Robotic construction
Researchers have prototyped sensor-packed robot bugs that mimic biological digestive systems to meet energy needs, employ a Janus interface for a steady supply of nutrients and move on the water's surface like a water strider.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: Fuel Cell, Bacteria, Ocean, Robots, Sensors
