In my synthetic chemistry lab, we have worked out how to convert the red pigment in common bricks into a plastic that conducts electricity, and this process enabled us to turn bricks into electricity ...
Whether humans were erecting Neolithic dwellings, ranch-style homes or modern McMansions, bricks have been a favorite of builders for thousands of years. Now, chemists have discovered new potential in ...
If all new buildings used CO2-storing materials, a new paper says, 16.6 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas could be stored annually — half of what humans produced in 2021. Advanced building ...
A team of researchers has figured out a way to turn bricks into energy storage devices. The converted bricks, the researchers say, could be used to store energy collected by solar panels, and even be ...
Imagine a world where instead of threading the walls of your house with copper wires that deliver electricity from the grid, the walls themselves stored that energy, potentially drawn from a solar ...
Space engineers have long considered lunar soil as locally available material for building outposts on the Moon, and now ESA researchers are considering it as a means to store energy. The Discovery & ...
In my synthetic chemistry lab, we have worked out how to convert the red pigment in common bricks into a plastic that conducts electricity, and this process enabled us to turn bricks into electricity ...
Why it matters: Researchers from Washington University in St. Louis have developed a method to store energy using red bricks, an abundant and affordable building material that has been in use for ...
