The use of biomass as an energy source

Using biomass as an energy source can lower the EU's external energy dependence and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, the challenge is to prove that biomass energy production is technically viable, environmentally sustainable and cost competitive at commercial scales.

EU-funded scientists working on the project BIOBOOST (Biomass based energy intermediates boosting biofuel production) are developing conversion methods to produce bio oil, coal or slurry from biomass.

Scientists develop first liquid nanolaser

   Researchers at Northwestern University have developed the first liquid nanolaser.
   The apparatus is configured in real-time, i.e., scientists can quickly and easily produce various colors beam.
   This laser technology, according to the inventors, is very useful in practical applications, including the "lab on a chip" in medical diagnosis.
To understand this concept, imagine a laser pointer, the color of which can only be changed by changing the liquid inside it. In addition to a color change in real time, the liquid nanolaser has additional advantages over other Nanolasers: simple and inexpensive to manufacture and operates at room temperature.
    Nanoscopic lasers, first demonstrated in 2009, there are now only in research laboratories.

Magnetic System for Military Medicine and Disaster Medicine

   Scientists of the Institute of Solid State Physics, Materials Science and Technology National Science Center "Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology" developed magnetic system designed to remove metal items from a living organism.
   The fighting in eastern Ukraine Ukraine NAS forced scientists to adapt their development to the needs of soldiers - members of ATU. According to the World Health Statistics data, including injuries sustained in the fighting, most penetrating wound up. The main ones are hitting balls (23% of cases) and fragments of shells (62% of cases), which is a magnetic metal fragments. Given this, there is an urgent need for tools to work with firearms (including fragmentation) wounds. Devices with the desired properties - magnetic systems based super magnets Nd-Fe-B for use in military medicine and disaster medicine - has been developed by scientists of the Institute of Solid State Physics, Materials Science and Technology National Science Center "Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology" (NSC IFTTMT " KhPTI ").
